I've booked NFW too, but I never had them do a sample. Will they still do one closer to my wedding if I ask them to? I wasn't sure of exact colors when I booked them.

---

Hello? What about me? Anyone have any idea? Ugh

---

What are you getting? High or Low CP's? Do you have a color scheme?

---

Thanks Christine-I am going to do light blue, lavender, and white. I think I've decided on all low centerpieces and mostly tulips. Do you think they'll still do a sample at some point for me? I've given her the colors, and she knows I want tulips mostly. Or, do they only do samples before you book to get you to book?

---

They'll definitely do a low sample CP...they'll do it for anything - even a bok if you'd like.

As far as the color scheme - gorgeous! It'll turn out beautifully.

I got a sample CP made after I booked - but that was just a deposit, and Anna said it was fully refundable in case I decided to go with someone else. Fortunately, I loved it and couldn't believe the size of it, that I didn't have to go elsewhere.

Thanks Christine!

Also wanted to add that Rocky23 (Jenn) is another National Floral bride - there are some pics in her thread here:

Re: OFFICIAL National Floral Wholesale THREAD!

Bump For any new National brides.

Re: OFFICIAL National Floral Wholesale THREAD!

I was a National Floral bride. Ann was for the most part professional with us and worked with our budget. I loved the colors of the flowers and Anna was helpful in matching the flowers to our BMs outfits etc. She was also accomodating in letting us use candles in our CPs that we purchased.

On my wedding day, I felt as if the bouquets were on the small side, she had put a green leaf of some sort on my bouqet when I had said I didn't want any greenery.

The wreaths were pretty but they looked nothing like the sample I was shown. I was to have an arrangement in my flower girl baskets and all they got were petals. I complained after the wedding, and Anna said this wasn't the case even after reading the contract. And then she started saying that she gave us a really good deal (financially) on our package, but I don't see how this makes up for the missing flowers in the 3 flower girl baskets. It was a $20 issue so I just dropped the subject. I wanted arrangements and petals in the baskets for the pictures.

I don't have a review on the boards yet but I posted some of the pictures on this thread

I see that some of the brides had a personality conflict with Anna. Another good florist that I found was Linden Florist. Although I did not book with her, and she isn't a LIW vendor, I recommend her highly. She has very competitive prices with National Floral.

Re: OFFICIAL National Floral Wholesale THREAD!

Did they state the number of flowers for the BOK's for you? If so, and you received less - I would have fought it.

I had Anna state exactly how many flowers will be in each bok and CP and on the pew bows.

Re: OFFICIAL National Floral Wholesale THREAD!

I loved your Bo-ks. Did you state how many flowers should be in the bo-ks? Mine turned out exactly what I had asked for. 2 dozen.

Re: OFFICIAL National Floral Wholesale THREAD!

I just wanted to say thanks to everyone that posts on threads like this...it really helps us Soon to Be's out greatly! We take everything you say to mind.

Thank You Thank You Thank You!

Re: OFFICIAL National Floral Wholesale THREAD!

Christine, I agree. There are so many florists out there! I had to drive forever to get to Bellmore, but it was so worth it! I'm still getting comments on the flowers! Everyone loved the gazebo, CPs and my Bo-K.

Re: OFFICIAL National Floral Wholesale THREAD!

I got to see my sample today. Here are a couple of pics.

My centerpiece did NOT look the sample she made for me. It was pretty but not the same.

That stinks! I would have asked for some type of compensation in return. i took pics and Anna took pics that way when we meet b4 the day, we can confirm everything and know exactly what they will look like.

Re: OFFICIAL National Floral Wholesale THREAD!

I saw some in the fridge which were exactly what I was looking for and I told her I was those without the red flowers and thats what I got
