Did I ask for something so unusual. I really want to know what I am paying for and as she was quoting me for about $5000 I think that I deserve that. That is so awful!

You have the right to know what your money is buying. I'd say it THEIR loss, not yours!

she declined your wedding?! ugh, move on to another florist and don't give her another thought!

I feel like some Manhattan weddings work a little differently than weddings that are coordinated out in the 'burbs. That florist has probably never (or rarely has) brides asking for a price breakdown because that would be considered 'tacky'- or because price is usually no object for some brides.

Don't feel badly about asking for a price breakdown! It just makes you a smart bride and makes that florist look like snobs.

That's really weird. You should definitely have a price breakdown. At a minimum, she should give you a proposal that tells you exactly how many flowers and what varities will be in the bouquets, centerpieces, etc. Her loss!

Thanks girls! I was really hurt by what she said, even though I know it should not matter. Sometimes its so overwelming planning everything and working fulltime I get really frustrated.

I think its really important to get a breakdown. My best friend got married and the florist forgot to include her most expensive flower, but since the price and flower was stated in the contract her have her $$ back without any argument whatsoever. I just want to know what I am getting I don't think its too much to ask.

I didn't even know a florist could decline to do a wedding! Is this common?
