Re: FOX HOLLOW BRIDES - Question & Answer Thread

Did any of you ladies use the PWP florist? If so, how did his prices compare with other florists? I am trying not to spend too much on flowers, and figure looking now (not necessarily booking now) will give me an idea on budgeting.

Thanks in advance

i am using them and they are VERY reasonable for what i am getting
they were about 500 less than the other 2 quotes i got and NO delivery charge

BUMP back to the first page! I started my registry today with FH lol. We went to bed bath and beyond and it was tiring!!!

I better get a move on then, date/hall/room twin! I started mine too, but just online ... I actually wasn't planning on going to any stores until march/april or so ... is that too late, you think?? I honestly do not know if I could fit it in before then.
In feb I need to decide on a florist, get an officiant, book honeymoon!!!

Re: FOX HOLLOW BRIDES - Question & Answer Thread

In case you were thinking of freezing your cake, here is Jen's answer when I asked about it:

We take care of all of that for you. We'll put the cake top in a box for you the night of, but the best thing to do to preserve it is when you get home, put it in a zip-lock freezer bag. I hear this keeps the cake as fresh as it can be in a year!!!
Thanks, Jen

So we don't need to provide a container or anything like that.

HTH

Only 26 more days...

THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU for posting this info!!!!

I've been really concerned about this from the very beginning and it's great to hear that they'll take care of all of this for us!!

I have major eating issues due to late effects from cancer treatments, and I take meds just to eat certain foods. We're spending so much time, energy and money in planning, and I'm absolutely terrified of eating on my own wedding day and spending the whole reception doubled-over in terrible pain!! From the moment we got engaged and started planning, I put my mom in charge of going into the kitchen and boxing stuff up for me for later, b/c I can't even eat it at my own wedding!! She's great at stuff like this, taking charge and getting things done, so I'll definitely come prepared with containers!!

It's great peace of mind that Fox Hollow will do this for us! So thanks for giving us all the inside info!!!!!!!!!
