Summed up in one word...Bullseye! We loved Stacey and Christi at Petal Pushers. They listened and were able to catalog our personalities to magically transform our wedding and reception into a vintage wonderland. We mentioned to Stacey that we liked a certain centerpiece we saw in a recent photo and they executed exactly what we had imagined and more! Every turn had something different to catch your eye -- there was so much detail. We were truly blown away. Stacey truly made the flowers and decorations unique to us. All of our wedding guests commented on how everything was so fitting to our personalities. Thank you Petal Pushers for making our wedding so beautiful and memorable. We wouldn't of done it any other way!

We loved petal pushers. The flowers were beautiful, the design was spectacular, and the price was awesome!They were consistently hard to get a hold of, but were very kind and responsive when they finally got back to us. We definitely recommend them, we thought they made our wedding very very special.

Petal Pushers did the flowers for our May wedding and were AMAZING! They created flowers that were exactly what I wanted and even more beautiful than I dreamed. They truly are artists with the flowers and I felt lucky to have them as our florists. They worked within our budget and were really creative about ways to save money. I got so many complements on our flowers and bouquets! I would (and have) recommended them to everyone I know. You seriously cannot go wrong with them as your florist.

One word can describe Stacey....excellent. She has an eye for beautiful things and wants to ensure that your persoanlity and taste are reflected in her work and is she is willing to make suggestions to make your ideas even more beautiful. She is patient, which I am so thankful for. I would recommend her to anyone, she is great and talented!

I contacted Stacey about a month before our wedding because we were getting really overwhelemed with the other florists we met with. Everyone else made everything so complicated but Stacey made it so easy! She had me fill out a list of questions that was more about the style and feeling of the wedding vs specific flowers which was refreshing. Since I was planning from out of town, she did the consultation over the phone and spent time getting to know what we were looking for, even though we were late in the game. She totally came through and the flowers were beautiful! We were in town for about 5 days after the wedding and everything STILL looked great. She had great ideas and really listened to what we wanted. Thanks Petal Pushers!

Petal Pushers was such a disappointment. They came recommended by the wedding venue we were using for my son's wedding. (they've since dropped them from their list of recommended florists!). We worked with "Wendee" and it was a disaster from the word go. She was so lax in replying to e-mails. Sometimes weeks would go by. We met with Wendee to discuss flowers and budget. Figured out what we wanted and waited....for TEN days for a quote. Finally had to get the wedding venue involved to get our quote. :(I was so concerned they simply would not show up the day of the wedding. They did show up and brought some flowers arranged but the rest were left in buckets for ME (mother of the groom) to arrange. This was not what I paid for or discussed with the florist (Wendee). I even had an e-mail from her saying "I will be there to arrange the flowers". This was so upsetting to me. THis was part of my gift to my son and his new wife (the flowers).I paid over $1500 and did not get what I paid for. Apparently, "Wendee'....the dreaded florist who worked for Petal Pushers decided to up and quit days before the wedding. All the info we had discussed as far as the arrangements and bouquets was in her head and very little was on paper.The wedding coordinator came to the rescue and managed to do the rest of the flower arranging...including making a halo of flowers for our flower girl. (this was on the order....then mysteriously disappeared). The bouquets were not what we talked about. We asked for little or no white flowers...but got almost completely white bouquets. The centerpieces were not what we talked about....got something totally different.I contacted Petal Pushers the day after the wedding expressing my disappointment. She was very apologetic but offered no partial refund or any sort of compensation. The apology was very appreciated but I think she should have offered to refund some of the $1500 that I paid. I didn't get what I paid for.It really was upsetting and that is not what you want on such a special day. I was near tears. If it weren't for the wedding coordinator assuring me she would take care of it and to handle PP later (monday after the wedding) I would have had a meltdown.I'm sure the company will be better off without Wendee but what a shame that they've made such a mess of their business. I feel that Stacey should have been monitoring what was happening. She had no clue. I paid the price. :(I am shocked to read all these positive comments from others. It's like I was working with a totally different company than the rest of the people on here....and that makes the entire situation feel worse for me. I really just don't want anyone else to go through what we did. There are many good florists in the Austin area.

Loved Stacey's creativity and open mind to make our day beautiful and unique. Our flowers were just what I had envisioned! I wish I would have had her deliver the flowers herself instead of my day of coordinator that took on too much. They almost didn't make it out to tables, etc. in time! My only request would be to improve response time via email and phone calls to ensure that we are taken care of in a prompt manner for questions etc.

Wonderful people and gorgeous flowers! Working with Stacey was so easy from the get go. She understood what I liked and helped me pick out the perfect flowers to fit with all the other details. Her whole team was responsive and helpful. There were a few hiccups on both our ends and it never seemed like a issue. I had several emails with Cheryl and she was great to work with. My flowers brightened up the venue and gave it a whole new feel.

OMG. What can I say? I had the most beautiful bouquet ever made! Ever. Ask my husband... he'll tell you one of the things I said over and over on our wedding day: "I love my bouquet!" :)The design concept meeting went very well. I told her what I liked and disliked, the colors I had in mind, but most importantly, the overall vision I had for the day. She listened to everything I said, then made some suggestions, and I told her: "I trust you. You know what I like, so just do your thing!" The result was better than anything I could have dreamed of. Thank you, thank you, thank you for making our special day so beautiful. We couldn't have done it without you!Highly recommended!

My experience with Petal Pushers and Stacey started out really well. She had a good idea of what I was telling her I wanted, and the decision meeting went great. Then the day of the wedding, I felt like a lot of things I asked for were not given. I wanted the maid of honor's bouquet to be different than the other one's, and that did not happen. I asked for the ceremony archway to be covered in cerry branches, and instead it was covered in oak branches. That is not at all attractive, or what I paid money for. The centerpieces only had one flower in them, when we had planned on having an assortment. I was very disappointed in their service, and I feel that I could have gotten much more for my money somewhere else.

My mom has done three weddings and many events in her lifetime and she said Petal Pushers is the best florist she's ever used. They were easy to work with and provided BEAUTIFUL flowers..exactly what I had described. They are priced extremely low for their fabulous work...a great value. I would recommend them to any bride! I was super happy with them.

If you are getting married in or around Austin, I wouldn’t go with any other florist but Petal Pushers. Stacey was probably the friendliest and most outgoing of all the wedding vendors we worked with. She has a floral studio on her property in Dripping Springs, and will meet with you just about anywhere. We met her at a Starbucks one afternoon to discuss our floral ideas. She brought a huge album of her work, but I already had a photo of the exact bouquet I wanted. I had spent hours looking at her work on her website, so I knew that I would love whatever she did. I ended up going with a variation of the photo I had – it was made up of ivory roses, artichokes, scabiosa pods, pale green hydrangea, and china berries. When I went to pick it up the morning of my wedding, I was overjoyed! The quality of the flowers was terrific. It was by far the most beautifully unique bouquet I had ever seen…and it was MINE! She also made a very cool, very simple boutonniere for my fiancé that matched my flowers perfectly. Her prices were great and she couldn’t have been more friendly.

Petal Pushers/Stacy is amazing! They worked with my budget and were super flexible, then far exceeded my expectations. The flowers and decor brought tears to my eyes (and serveral other bridesmaids) and made me jump up and down! Stacy was wonderful to work with and she really wants to make your wedding day amazing- she really cares!

Stacy and her staff were absolutely wonderful and just so friendly. I had some ideas in my head of what I wanted but it was pretty vague. They exceeded my expectations and truly brought tears to my eyes. They were just wonderful. The bouquets were perfect and the table center pieces were so great I had some guest ask to take them home!

Petal Pushers is absolutely wonderful!!! Staci makes beautiful bouquets. We did everything over email since it was a destination wedding and I couldn't have been more pleased with the quality, cost and cutomer service I recieved. As a matter of fact, she brought extra flowers becasue the lillies I had ordered weren't up to normal standards. Everything was perfect!!!

The main lady, Stacy is AMAZING. She responds to emails as quickly as she can and is very very flexible in any vision you want. I never had a chance to meet her in person but my bouquets and flowers turned out more beautiful than I had envisioned. They had delivered the flowers early in the morning for a 10:30am wedding with the bouquets all readily set in corresponding bouquet vases with water inside, and the bouts and corsages were all bigger and more beautiful than I had imagined. Plus, her prices are so reasonable and she is absolutely fantastic.

Was good except for a specific color that was requested to NOT be on the cake ended up on the cake. This was very disappointing, but otherwise was good to work with.

They really did an amazing job, and I had some crazy requests, which they all carried out. I had some superfun ideas for flowers, and the girl there really worked with me on what I was invisioning. I even had her create this table that had an overhanging garden of an umbrella, with pieces of ivy, hydragea, and tea lights, all suspended above this round table where we had champaigne service during the reception. It was OUT OF THIS WORLD! Also, I loved my bouques, because she really worked with me on what I wanted and it came out perfectly. But let me tell you, I showed her a picture from a ranom magazine of this crazy floral umbrella table concept, and she totally delivered, above and beyond. Fabulous!
