I used The Flower Cart...is that who you mean? I loved their flowers - really high quality. I've heard you can get flowers for cheaper, but it's worth getting a quote at least. The Flower Cart Contact: Francine (super nice and responsive)

I believe the flower cart is owned by the same lady who owns one of the WC business and Panchos. I went to the Flower cart shop while I was in Cabo last August. It is right around the corner from Panchos (in the same building).
I contacted Francine before I arrived and scheduled an appt. When I got there she wasn't there....not a very good first impression, but she did hurry back so we could meet. The flowers in the shop looked really fresh. Did Janet post her email? I forgot....anyway, let me know if you need her contact info, but it is on the website. .....hope this helps!

Thanks for the head's up. I really thought the rental prices for the shells and hurricanes were over the top (to be used for the centerpieces...$75 per table). I'm getting these items from Maye instead for less. But, I already gave the flower cart a deposit.  | |

Oh...I didn't know that Flower Cart was owned by WIP.
I am also using Flower Cart. I thought the pricing was pretty reasonable compared to the quote I received from Martze Floral. But still good to know.

Girls as Tammy noted, The Flower Cart is owned by WIP. For that very reason I'm not getting my flowers from them. WIP is a HUGE PITA, and that company doesn't earn a penny from me. For those of you who are using Maye as your WC, she knows someone in San Jose, that's where I'm getting my flowers from. I know Rebecca used the same vendor and she said the quality was good. As far as a quote, I was quoted 165.00 for C. Orchids and roses.

Thanks for all the advice! I didn't know that they were affiliated with WIP. I will keep looking!
