Burton's flowers brides...

If you went to pick out your flowers already, did they already have your flowers picked out? lol .... i met with some guy (not mike) and he looks over a sheet and says, 'oh yeah, you're getting this with this and this' im like uhhh i am???? When I first booked with them, I told them i loved lillies and that was it... I go there today, and they already had something picked out for me (it involved lillies but added roses and such)... I was a little annoyed... I thought id be going through the book, looking at differnt styles... i really am not a fan of roses... so if i end up with still getting roes in my bo-k somehow, im not going to be happy... I felt rushed in there and didnt have too much say in what i wanted... Anyone else feel the same way?

ETA: when i go back there for my dress with my mom, i might change some things in my order....

did you speak up and tell them that wasn't what you wanted?

i honestly wasnt sure what i wanted... but i thought they would be a bit more helpful and show me some examples in the book... lol... i mean what is it there for then??? all he did was ask what color all the dresses/suits were and he picked the flowers himself... being that i wasnt sure what would look good, i didnt question it much... i felt overwhelmed and rushed to be honest

im going to go back with pics and correct the things i want to change... now that im at a computer i can actually see what these boks are going to look like... i even said they are hard to pic... you think he woulda went through the book and said 'here, this is what its going to look like' .... maybe if i got mike, it would have been different

mine will be all callas in white, light pink, and hot pink with steph's mixed in...

my bm's have stargazer lillies mixed with light and dark pink roses

that's weird...when we went we told bobbi what we didn't want and she came up with a million different ideas..then she showed us pictures. To be honest, their albums had tons iwth roses so they probably wouldnt have helped you anyway.

We didnt want roses but in the end the boks had some roses throughout and they ended up being gorgeous. They helped to make the bok look fuller which i liked

so you asked for no roses and it came with some roses? Im just worried bc ive heard of girls flowers not coming out to what they wanted in the end with burtons... i put some roses in my girls boks bc i wasnt as concerned with theirs having them as much as i was with mine having them... lol ...

I originally said no roses and then bobbi explained to me that she thought it would look best with them...i trusted her opinion..she didnt do it without my knowing though

Hmm...that's strange. I'm not a Burton's bride but I would definitely open my mouth if I were you!

They are not my florist either but if you really do not want roses you should definately make sure you let them know that

I haven't had my final meeting yet but I sure as heck am not leaving feeling rushed. If they rush me, I'm rescheduling I don't like that.

That's really bizarre. I guess what that really means is that they hold your initial inquiry form as gospel, even if you change your mind. Good thing my bouquets are solely roses lol.
