| - Kay & Young is the default floral shop for all my motherly needs. So when it came time to fancify my wedding, we knew where to go.
My god, the patience of Mary (and Chris too, he's okay) is boundless. This may sound similar to my ring shopping review [*], but putting up with my WIFE (it's new for me, deal with it) when in wedding-mode is a stress test for any human being, let alone any vendor. Yet somehow, Mary drew upon deep and vast stores of energy to bear the full brunt of my lady's voracious floral appetite, fending off wave after wave of "what about roses in these colours," "no no, those arrangements must be fuller," and "don't you have branches that are taller?" When the dust finally settled, Mary had talked my partner off the precipice (read: they knew their product, and what was seasonably available at the time).
Come the day of the wedding, Mary slavishly produced a dazzling and baffling sixty (60!) mason jar arrangements for our tables (and she hates mason jars). Honestly, they looked stunning. You know how they have those table games to see what winner (loser) gets to take home the table arrangements? People actually wanted them at my wedding. That's right bitches.
Anyway, good job Mary (and Chris). Helped us pull off an awesome day. Prices were reasonable (but it's a wedding, so I don't even know what that means anymore).
