flower michelle sample cp pics

we had our appointment with flower michelle about two weeks ago (i've been waiting to download the pics from our camera). john was out sick so we met with michelle, his assistant. she was very sweet & helpful.

when we walked in the room & saw the sample centerpiece on the table, i was shocked. it was very beautiful, however, it was not what john & i had discussed. we spent about an hour with michelle to figure out how to change the centerpiece so it will look more like what i had in mind. the problem was that it was very very green. it also didn't seem like there were a heck of a lot of flowers- just lots of leaves. i wanted more flowers & more fall colors. also, my big thing was the calla lilies & the calla in the centerpiece was pink instead of mango (big mistake on their part). so, we pulled out much of the green, & stuck some other flowers in there. however, they did not have the flowers i wanted in the store that day. so i'm hoping & praying that the day of the wedding it will be right.

the original sample centerpiece (very nice, but too green):



more of the colors i had in mind (but not roses):

maybe that's why i love them jenn...because they look a little christmasy...and that's how my wedding is going to be...winterish...

very nice for a fall wedding. I love the orange roses and the berries.

Im with you.. im having a fall wedding .. im looking for more orangie too.

But it looks like they do good work.
