Bouquet Question

So I met with my florist this weekend and she gave me some ideas for boks. Just wondering what everyone else is doing because I know barely anything about flowers.

So....

What type of flowers are you using for yours and your bm's? And, what were you quoted for each?

Blue and Charcoal Grey - There really arent any flowers that match! I am probably going to stick to white. I am not a big rose fan either. I was originally thinking gardenias, but appearently they bruise very easily or something so my florist recommended only using a few of them in the bok.

Bouquet Question

I'm doing purple anemones, lisianthus, and stock flowers. Def check out the anemones. They have a beautiful black center and really pop in mixed bouquets!

Re: Bouquet Question

and hydrangea (we are using the lighter blue than this) but they must be hydrated almost at all times !

I just googled anemomes and they are so pretty. Very different from the roses. I hope they are available for my season.
