Booked my florist! Another thing done...

I am using Wicks Florist in Baldwin, as they are the house florist for Coral House. If you book $400 for your other flowers, you get the free centerpiece that comes with the Coral House package upgraded for no charge. First, Debbie at Wicks was extremely accomodating! She had a cancellation for the appointment after mine, so she spent that time with me. She made up a centerpiece as I wanted it to look in the candlabra (spelling?) and it was gorgeous! Debbie was absolutely professional, and had a lot of great hints to tie-in the look of the flowers between my bouquet, the MOH, BM and FG. She even had suggestions for carrying over flowers to the MOG and my step-mother's corsage. She helped me save on decorating the reception site, as she knows the site, size of tables, etc. She had a wonderful suggestion for candles and rose petals on a mirror for the coctail hour tables, which are in a separate room. I gave her 2 words that I was going for, classy and romantic, and her suggestions were dead on. When I told her I got my pew bows off ebay, but wasn't sure how to afix them to the pews, she not only showed me, but gave me the rubberbands and sticks for free. It was wonderful to do business with such a friendly and knowledgable vendor.

Congrats - great to have another check mark on the list! *NM*

Good for you, Baldwin is a bit far for me, but I hope to find a florist very soon that will have the same qualities.
