Florists

How mant florists did you all meet with? I only plan on visiting 3, but my third appt isn't until Oct. My first two are within the next few weeks. One of them is Flowers by Emil which I have heard great things about, so I'm hoping he can offer me something good within my budget. Did any of you book right away?

Re: Florists

I'm only meeting one, but he's a personal friend. So it was never a question for me who I was going to use.

Re: Florists

I only met with two florists, although I had a chance to see three others at a showcase and see some of their work, but didn't go over any pricing/particulars with them.

I think you can do so much research before you go see vendors by looking at reviews and pics online that you can narrow down your search before you get there. For photo, we only met with two and booked the second one on the spot, for DJ's we met with three, and flowers we booked the second one on the spot but it was the florist I had always thought I'd go with. So my advice is, see what's out there but you can do a lot of that by researching and knowing what you want before you get there to meet with them.

Re: Florists

I only met with 1... they are a house vendor and had great prices and I loved the woman we met with so I just decided to stick with them

Re: Florists

I've met with 2 so far, and have appointments to meet with 3 others. Hoping I'll be able to make my decision shortly after.

Re: Florists

I only met one, I knew I wanted to book her because my friend is using her this month for her wedding and her prices were good.
