There are going to be positives and negatives no matter which vendor you go to.

The best advice I've ever received, is take everything as a learning lesson. Just like carlsbride said - make sure you have them write exactly how many flowers are in each CP, bok, bot, etc. This is what I did with our contract, and had a sample CP made.

Re: OFFICIAL National Floral Wholesale THREAD!

ok, thanks yes i made her write down in the contact too how many flowers and now i just gotta go there and have her make a centerpiece for me.

Re: OFFICIAL National Floral Wholesale THREAD!

Its great to hear that other brides are using NFW.... I was totally impressed with what she did for me! i went to a few different florists and no one could do anything, Im using a Large Margareta glass and she was the only one able to do something.
If i can figure out how to attach pictures, i will. well anyways I have a few pictures in my community album, I just wanted my centerpiece with roses, and no one could do it... but ana did!!!!!!! im totally excited. It looks much larger in person, when i took it apart 3 weeks later, when it started to die, there was 50 roses in it.

tell me honestly what you think

Re-post from my review - my biggest piece of advice-get in writing the specific number of flowers to be used in your bouquets - other than that the other issues were out of my control.

I also agree with the statement above. I had my issues with NFW as well. But had the actual numbers been written in my contract, many of them would have been alleviated.

WOW Gorgeous!!! I love the color!

And yes, you definately need to be very specific when ordering anything! I included the # of roses, the exact color and that I wanted them halfway opened, tied with white ribbon with the stems sticking out. Be very specific.

Re: OFFICIAL National Floral Wholesale THREAD!

I cant wait to see.

Re: OFFICIAL National Floral Wholesale THREAD!

Im not 100% sure what color my table cloths are, were having our reception at Chateau La Mer, and my girls dresses are wine with a sash (bill levkoff). im trying to stay more along the lines of fall colors, and the flowers in the centerpieces have a wine edge.

Blue tulip, I cant wait to see how your appointment turned out, have you spoken with ana already?

Re: OFFICIAL National Floral Wholesale THREAD!

Thank you, i never thought to look at the table cloths lol... so wine will go alright? the candles they give you for your tables i feel will look funny with the centerpieces i have

Re: OFFICIAL National Floral Wholesale THREAD!

yes, I think it will look fine. I like votives better anyway.

Re: OFFICIAL National Floral Wholesale THREAD!

Re: OFFICIAL National Floral Wholesale THREAD!

Re: OFFICIAL National Floral Wholesale THREAD!

I just came home from going to NW Florist..I was blown away with Ana and how amazing she was. I posted recently about florist troubles due to FMIL paying and me having to use her family friend who does not do weddings and no centerpieces. I thought Ana was wonderful and I am using her for centerpieces and have to get FMIL on board for her doing the whole thing.
Thanks so all who have posted and I just found this thread. I am so excited now about my flowers.
