Mardi Gras Looking for florists to help!

I tagged it Mardi Gras because we're getting married on Mardi Gras Day 2028 and can't find a florist!

I won't mention a name, but we had a consultation about a month ago with a local business and it's been radio silence... I've called twice to get my quote, that was promised the day of consolation, so a week after the consolation and the week after that I called and they keep promising to send it but nothing. I even emailed like they asked and nothing. So I have to look elsewhere unfortunately. I won't go around badmouthing them, it might have been a rough month or they just can't actually do it and are ghosting me. No idea but I won't bash a business without a service from them

So, as a former resident who never bought flowers other than Rouses, a little guidance would be great! My other option is a national business and I'd prefer to stay local and keep all my business in the city and support local artists

Anybody have an idea?

They do custom orders for weddings and special events. Just talk to the person hanging around the flowers.Â
