My wedding flowers and entire floral theme were completely ruined b/c of Janna Coe and Renee Cummings (the apparent financial backer and person in charge of "Janna Coe Designs").
The flowers that we paid for and agreed upon in the contract were not used, rather Janna and Renee decided to rip me off and use much cheaper types of flowers across the board. They also got colors wrong all over the place (ribbons, etc), and arrangements that were supposed to be very large and for which we paid quite a premium were substituted for tiny rinky-dink arrangements. This is a complete rip off.
We never saw a refund and when confronted Renee Cummings claimed that she lived up to the contract. Obviously I am going to pursue them in small claims court, as we are owed a huge chunk of our entire payment back based on what was not delivered per our contract.
Oh, and if you want a wedding florist that is actually present on your wedding day- LOOK ELSEWHERE! Janna Coe was never even on site to oversee the job- she merely gave the instructions to someone else and sent them on their way! We were promised that she'd actually be there and present to set up, and she wasn't! Amazing.
To add insult to injury, we were put into contact w/ Renee Cummings, and she is quite a gem let me tell you. Never before have I been so appalled at how rude and petty someone who just ripped you off could be. She is the real culprit here, since she must be pulling Janna Coe's strings.
This little floral company is a complete joke, and the 2-ring circus running it is even more rude than they are conniving. I assume they believe they can pull this scam off since most people are so overwhelmed on their wedding day that they won't notice that the florist ripped them off? Oh well i suspect they won't be in business for long at the rate they're going. This is just a warning to anyone in the danger zone of securing their services.

I AM a Gem! I was surprised to see myself pulled into this as I am a business consultant in health care and my work has nothing to do with the wedding industry. Interestingly, I am Janna's mother and that helped narrow the number of suspects considerably as I don't typically talk to Janna's clients! I'm her MOM, not her business partner! We actually think this is one of Janna's old friends who is honked off over a romantic relationship where she got dumped!

It is unfortunate this has been posted as Janna Coe Designs, Inc. has been in business for nearly ten years and is noted for strong relationships throughout the greater Columbus metropolitan area. We readily provide references and Janna Coe Designs is a preferred vendor at many of the well known and established bridal venues. As no name was provided by the individual with the post, we are not able to address their accusations. We suspect this is a post by a disgruntled former employee, but have no way of knowing for sure. It feels a little like a "hit and run" to us as we cannot readily respond in a professional manner. If you have questions, or if you are the disgruntled individual, you may certainly contact me directly at (614) 203-0817 such that I may address your complaints. Renee Cummings
