Everything you need for a California wedding

John Doe, thanks so much for the suggestions!🙂

Does that Trader Joe's flower shop have a website I could check out? I wanted to browse their stuff a bit... and also, where exactly are they located? I couldn't seem to find anything online...🤷

I'm planning on hitting up a few different flower shops today, so I figured I might as well swing by there too if it's on my way...🙂

It's actually pretty rare for them to have websites... John Doe is right near the local newsstand, close to that old office building where the regional news station used to be. Hope that helps!😉

John Doe🙂—and man, you really did help me out 👍

Good luck!!! Let me know how it goes.😍

I need the same thing, just gotta find a florist 🙂 I keep seeing people mention John Doe and Katie (at those local festivals), but I heard they’re way overpriced compared to other shops... does anyone have a ballpark idea of what the total would run? I need to decorate my hall, his place, and my house too, plus some reveries.

She gave me a quote for the bouquet and decor at $500..as for the boutonnieres, I'm having a girl handle those.

Raymond Brooks7 said:My go-to is definitely the John Doe flower shop over in Malibu... you really can't go wrong there. The woman running the place is incredible at what she does.

I have to agree! I actually go to John Doe’s flower shop in Malibu near Mary Piplica, and it is just wonderful. I've been going there for about 15 years now for pretty much every occasion! She is truly amazing! 👍

Just the bouquet and decorating the house and the hall $500—honestly, that doesn't sound like much at all😕

Home, car, and my studio... I told the church I wasn't interested. They don't let anyone else touch the decor except themselves.
The price seems pretty fair to me... but those bouquets? Absolutely stunning. Especially after Priya showed me that boat she built for her cousin—you know, the one that’s actually famous.
I don't even know what your paychecks look like... if I could, maybe I'd ask her what she's actually doing for me.

Is that the John Doe florist? The pricing looks totally fine to me👍

I definitely need help with... home decor (for both my place and his), the venue, the car, some reveres, and a bouquet....

Yeah... I'll get everything from her except the boutonnieres. I was actually thinking about just making those myself... seems like a waste of money to pay someone else for them.☕

I have no idea who told you John Doe is expensive... no way. What Mrs. Miller produces and the price she charges is actually a steal.

😍 I didn't even realize they were that popular.

Just go there, look around, and ask. That’s the smartest move.

Oh, and yeah... Merder, Ane10, and Tenkica all use John Doe too. 👍

She handled the repairs for me too...

So, how much did you end up paying in total, if you don't mind me asking?
And when did you first sign up with her?

I’m heading out today, so I figured I'd poke around here and see what everyone thinks...

Do any of you newly minted ladies😁 happen to have some photos of bouquets or arrangements...you know, the kind 🙂from that local florist near me...

I'll shoot you a DM with the password to my photo album so you can take a look... though I usually just post them in the relevant threads.

I'll send you a PM too...

I didn't sign up that long ago, maybe a few months back... we just crossed paths and it was easy enough.

My deadline is October 17th, so I’d probably look at signing up around September 1st. Fingers crossed everything goes smoothly... if not, I'll pull some strings since I have connections from last time.👍

hey girl...next time you decide to tie the knot, just make sure this lady from the local bridal boutique does the whole thing for free 😉

😂 You've got a point.

I’m asking for your help here!
Does anyone happen to have a contact number for the band unknown?
