Florist Appointment

Hi Ladies ..

So this wknd im making my 1st Payment to my RH and I took advantage and made an appointment with Distinctive Florist since they are across the street from my hall. This is my first floral appointment so I am unsure of what to bring or what to take or what questions to ask. Can someone help me? How did you prepare for your flower appointments? Thanks

I didn't really need anything I brought. I just went with the ideas I was thinking of. They showed me lots of pictures which gave me new ideas. I would def bring pictures though just in case. gl

I brought a list of everything I'd need (# of bouquets, bouts, table arrangements, ect), pictures of what I liked and a swatch of the bridesmaids dress material.

I needed a lot of help- I went through pictures of their work and the florist worked with me to come up with a vision of what I wanted.

Good luck!

I had actually sent photos of my inspiration pics to my florist before meeting with them so they had sample CPs ready for me at my appointment- before booking!
