Whole Foods Market

Whole foods provided the flowers for our centerpieces, my bouquet, corsages and boutonnieres and did an amazing job creating the idea I had in my head. Whatever I said I liked, they would pull out a sample and put something together, making changes and suggestions along the way until it was perfect. They also let me provide my own centerpiece containers to keep the cost down, which was very important to me. Their flower department provides many beautiful options and I would highly recommend them to anyone!

I wanted beautiful flowers and was willing to arrange them myself (I'd bought several helpful books and taken a one day class on working with flowers and creating center pieces) so that I could get the look I wanted with my budget. Whole Food offered a wonderful array of flowers and I was very pleased with the end result. I'd definitely use them again!

I ordered by flowers for my reception from Whole Foods. I just needed stems to make my own centerpieces. They were able to order the flowers that I wanted, though I couldn't pick the exact orange of the lilies- it would be just whatever was sent, which was fine. The day I was supposed to pick them up they called to say they didn't get my purple calla lillies in, which were pretty important. She said she'd keep checking around for me, but I didn't hear back from her. I found another florist from which I could get them, but when I went to pick up at Whole Foods, she had come across one bunch of the calla's for me. She gave them to me for free since it was a hassle trying to find others. I recommend Whole Foods Floral if you are able to arrange your own flowers and aren't going to be super-picky on exact colors.

Although I only bought the flowers at Whole Foods and then made my own bouquet and had a friend arrange the table displays, the flowers were gorgeous and a great value. I worked with them to special order my flowers, and they did a great job to get exactly what I wanted.

Whole Foods did a wonderful job with our wedding flowers. The value for the flowers we ordered was amazing! (A fraction of the cost of other florists) Each of our arrangements we artfully arranged and were exactly how I pictured them. The staff was very patient, even with a bride that changed her mind a dozen times! A true value and certainly worth checking out.

My only downfall to this vendor was the experience. We had a 3:45 wedding (reception following) and served appetizers then a buffet meal for 110 people. We told Whole Foods to plan for 120. We ran out of appetizers shortly into the cocktail hour, and were short about 15 people's meals.

Our wedding cake was delicious and a lot of our guests commented on this. The cake itself was pretty basic in design. I was one of the first brides to order a cake from this particular Whole Foods and they didn't have a lot of options to choose from. I wish that they had been able to present more designs. Delivery went smoothly and they were flexible with the date and deliveries. The cake was organic, which I loved. All in all, this was a good experience. We did a tasting session with the pastry chef the same way you would at a bakery. I would recommend Whole Foods.
