Did you ever just want to...

get something done for the sake of having it done....well that leads me to my question...

I want to book a florist - but of course I don't have a dress or the bridesmaid dresses picked out yet. I have NO idea what I want for a centerpiece, other than the fact that I want Autumnal colors. I think I know what I want for my bo-K

Can I just go in and book someone without having a clue what I want yet????

Is there any downside to doing that?

Re: Did you ever just want to...

You can book the florist whenever you want, and usually change the flowers as many times as necessary. But...it's easier to go in and get an accurate price if you know what kind of flowers you will need....and you won't know that until you have colors in mind...

I used Burton's and the price doesn't matter which flower you use, but at other places it mattered.

Boo-k's

I can't find my centerpiece right now, I will add it.

When I went to Burton's I had one idea, and then I changed it as time went on.

Thanks to both!!

Endlessluv - we are getting married the same day!! What did you end up deciding on for your flowers? I think I want to carry a bo-k of black beauty roses...and do fall wreaths with short pillar candles in the middle on the tables. They have beautiful color and never die! Guests love them. I will try to post a picture of the wreath tomorrow.

I am also using Burtons. Ask for Jill she is so helpful. She will lead you through what you need to do. All flowers are the same price she will ask how many Bm and how many Gm etc, thats all, and she will give you a price.
