florist fees??

After hopefully pcikingn my BM dress this weekend I am going to make florist appointments. Do florists charge for a consultation fee?
I have to use a house florist. I'm looking into distinctive and flowers by Brian. If anyone knows if these specific companies charge that fee?

I had an appt with Distintive and there was no consultation fee. I never heard of a florist charging one. They were great, I think you will be very happy with them.

ANY vendor charging a consultation fee should not get your business. Consultations should be a no-fee way for you to meet with the vendor to see how you get along and if they can produce what you want. I've never heard of anyone charging a consultation fee.

Good luck this weekend!!!

I went only to two and neither charged a consultaion fee. I went to Flowers by Brian and Pedelstals and booked with Pedelstals. I thought they were both great however I clicked better with the person at Pedelstals. Congratulations on picking the BM dresses and I am sure everything will be fine with the Florists.
