New Jersey Wedding Flowers

admin — Wed, 14 May 2008 17:19:29 +0000

My wedding planner bought red and white roses for my wedding in October in NJ and I was very impressed and amazed how gorgeous the wedding flowers turned out… the roses even had the appearance of velvet.

Everyone at the wedding was complimenting us on the arrangements and on how great they looked. I am very satisfied and very happy with how the roses turned out.

Thank you!

DIY Wedding Flowers

“I absolutely have to give a shout out to the Grower’s Box. I was afraid of ordering such an important thing like my wedding flowers online. What if I got bad flowers or they didn’t come in time? The florist prices in town were out of the question though. But to my delight, the customer service was amazing at the Grower’s Box. The girls helped answer all my questions and made me feel at ease about the whole process. They had a huge selection, and it was easy to get the flowers that I wanted that were out of season in the US without costing any more than it would have if they had been in season here. My wedding flowers were AMAZING. Better than I could have ever asked for, and they fit my budget perfectly. And, they came exactly when they said they would. I would recommend The Grower’s Box to anyone.”

April’s Experience With The Grower’s Box

Thank you so much for the wonderful packaging and on-time delivery of my flowers for my wedding last year.

I was very skeptical about going through a florist because of the astronomical prices they charge. They arrived beautifully packaged with water packets for each bunch of flowers. Everything was exactly as I ordered it!

Thanks again for such a wonderful site and for my beautiful flowers at my wedding. I will definitely use you again!

A ‘Welcoming’ Trend ~ Freeze Dried Rose Petals

admin — Thu, 27 Mar 2008 17:41:03 +0000

Every year new trends emerge in the floral industry. This year we have been pleasantly surprised to see a significant increase in sales of freeze dried rose petals! These beautiful petals are not only being used for weddings and events, but hotels, spas, resorts, and restaurants have taken akin to the freeze dried rose petals for added decor and ambiance!

Hotels & Hospitality: In just the first few months of this year we have shipped a large amount of freeze dried rose petals to hotels and other businesses throughout the hospitality industry. Some of our customers have indicated that they have begun to offer ‘honeymoon packages’ where the room is transformed into an intimate setting with the mere dimming of lights and the sprinkling of rose petals in the bedroom and bathroom.

Resorts & Spas: Resorts and spas have also been quick to pick up on the trend of freeze dried rose petals. The longevity of these petals allows these establishments to create a peaceful and relaxing environment for their customers that requires little maintenance. Due to the fact that freeze dried rose petals maintain their shape and color, resorts and spas are able to leave displays out longer, have less turnover of product than they would with fresh rose petals, and still enjoy the beauty and fragrance of having beautiful rose petals throughout their facility.

Weddings & Events: Freeze dried rose petals remain extremely popular at weddings and events. This year it appears as though many brides have decided to use freeze dried rose petals instead of fresh rose petals. This shift in the trend could be a result of many different factors. It could be that businesses and brides are feeling the pressures of a sluggish economy and have opted for the more economical freeze dried rose petals. The trend could also be a result of an increasing number of venues that are limiting the use of fresh rose petals as decorations. Freeze dried rose petals are more widely accepted at reception halls and wedding and event venues because they don’t stain, and because they are much easier to clean up.

Whether you are a business or a bride, consider adding our beautiful freeze dried rose petals to your list of decorations to be included at your next wedding or event! The Grower’s Box offers a wide selection of both fresh and freeze dried rose petals, as well as many varieties of wholesale flowers and wedding flowers.

Dani & Todd’s Wedding Flowers

Thank you so much for doing such a wonderful job with our wedding flowers. The roses were big, fresh, and smelled great. They were delivered on time and were in great shape. The centerpieces for the tables at our reception were breathtaking! The sales rep that I spoke to suggested ideas to make the centerpieces look grand and airy, yet classy and elegant. The guests loved the centerpieces and some fortunate guests were able to take the centerpieces home. Everything that we had pictured came alive on our big day.

We want to thank our sales rep for all of the great ideas and patience in the decision making process. The Grower’s Box was extremely responsive to all of our questions and concerns and were willing to work around our budget the whole time. Our wedding flowers were amazing and did not break our budget!

Thanks so much!

Dani & Todd
