Does this sound right?

Hi girls,
Does this sound right to you? My florist did 2 sample centerpieces for me which was awesome. Then when I went in to pick my bouquets for the bm, I chose out of a book. They said that they don't do samples and i would only get to see the rose color combo the day before the wedding...anyone out there get sample bouquets done? Not sure if this is what most florists do. Wanted to get all your opinions before I push the subject with the florist!
Thanks!

I had a local florist for the bouquets, do I don't know the LI norm for that. But, I did not get a sample bouquet. I wish I did though because I didn't like my bouquet.

The BM bouquets looked great, but that's because Laurie gave me a pic to give to the local florist.

I got 1 sample centerpiece. I LOVED it! It was PERFECT!

Thanks. I figured I'd check with you guys. I just feel insecure that I picked the roses out of a book and I couldn't even see on live, ya know. You'd think with the money spent, they would accomodate...oh well, i'm running out of time and steam! Thanks for responding...and by the way, i think your bouquet is pretty...oh, and your dog is absolutely adorable...i'm a dog nut!
Take care,
christine

Yeah, I've never heard of a sample bouquet. I would imagine seeing the flowers next to eachother would be just as good.

My florist didnt do a sample full bouquet BUT they definately showed me the colors of the roses in person. I would check into that there are a ton of shades of roses and books dont tell all.
