flowers -- CP question

We are doing half high and half low CP's. The highs will be in vases, not the metal spiral things.

My question is: what happens to the vases after the reception? We keep them? Are they returned?

they're returned to the florist, you're pretty much renting them

We are having high cp's and low cp's but in our contract we specified that we wanted to purchase them so that the guests can take them home. I am sure that they would have no problem charging you a little more for them.

This is what bothers me.... what the hell are we supposed to do with the flowers then? I mean, they're ours, we're paying for them....

one florist i met with said they'll wrap the flowers up at the end of the night when they come to collect the vases so that guests could take the flowers home

Depends... what did your florist tell you? With the glass ones you or the guest gets to keep them.

There's a usually smaller container that sits on top of the big vase that holds the flowers.

oh really? oh okay. We are doing the glass ones. When I was talking to the florist on the phone they didn't mention that to me. I really want the guests to be able to take them home!

NM... I jsut saw in your profile you are using burtons. You get to keep the vases.

ETA: The metal stands you have to return b/c they are rented....but the flowers in a container on top of the stand/vase.

Oh okay, that's what confused me I think.... they made it seem like they weren't sure if I would be able to upgrade half my CP's to high's because they weren't sure that the metal stands would be available. When I told them I wanted glass, they say it would be no problem, but I couldn't figure out why.

Thanks!!!!!!!!!!

The florist took ours back, but what our florist offered was 2 of their workers to come towards end of the night. They took each cp and divided it into a few arrangements and wrapped them up and handed them to guests as they left.
