i dont know, maybe you girls are like me, i have a few mag pics of flowers/centerpieces but nothing i really like. bits and pieces here and there.
well, ive come up with an idea. im sure im not the first, and i certainly wont be the last, but i knwo what i want. so i am going to go to michaels and buy a bunch of fake flowers (obviously what i want) and put them together.
i think its perfect to bring to the florist, along w/ pics of it.
my whole issue is i feel like i cant only bring pics, and im going to have to be SUPER detailed, amount of flowers in each arrangement, blah blah blah. everyone has their own vision, so i want to make sure they have a similar if not the same vision as mine.
i also have alittle help here since my aunt has been in the business for over 20yrs. she did our eparty arrangement. b/c we booked with the royalton, we can only choose one of two florists.

thats a cool idea...or you could ask the florist to make you a sample, to see if they get your 'vision'

That's what we did for the eparty table setting - we got some different colors to see what we liked best. It'll be the best way to show your florirst exactly what you are looking for

That is a great idea!!! It is hard to describe what you want because everyone has a different interpretation.
I am making my own, no flowers for me, but great idea!!!!

thats a good idea so the florist will have no excuse to not give you exactly what you want and when you are finished you can still return it to Michaels

I agree, it is a great idea. I haven't even thought about flowers. I know I am going to be too picky.
