CP sample ?

How soon before should I call to have one made up?

Hmmmm...maybe 6-8 weeks before the wedding? I know some brides do it a lot sooner though.

I just saw mine last week. John at Flower Michele told me that any time in April would be good so I made an appointment for last week

I actually had mine done in January. I know I'm a little anal about details and getting things done in advance!

They actually just called me a few days ago to set one up. I have to send my mom in my stead. I was pretty impressed that they called me.

I HAD MINES ABOUT 1 MONTH PRIOR,, BUT EVERYONE IS DIFFERENT.. IT PROBABLY HAS TO DO WITH THE KIND OF FLOWERS YOU HAVE,, CERTAIN FLOWERS ARE NOT ALWAYS IN SEASON.

I wouldn't recommend waiting for a month before --- I think they put in the final order for the flowers with the nurseries around 2 - 3 weeks before the wedding.

Someone suggested 6 - 8 weeks before, I think that's best ....

You want to leave time, just in case you don't like your 1st sample and want to make changes and see a 2nd sample before they have to finalize the order for the flowers.

They told me end of May/June. So that they'd have the summer flowers I want to incoorporate in my CP's. But I guess you only have to wait if your having seasonal flowers.
