I'm going to meet with Designs by Rose tonight! I'm excited because I've read nothing but good things about them on LIW. I really like them already...they are picking me up at my house and bringing me to their studio and then they are going to drop me back off. How cool is that???!!!

Okay, I'm back girls. I love Designs By Rose. It's a daughter and mother team. They picked me up and dropped me off afterwards. Their office is in the basement of their house. I believe I have found my florist I might see one or two more just to make sure. I hate to jump into anything without looking around but they are going to be hard to beat. They really work with you and help find beautiful ideas that work with whatever your budget is. I definately didn't think I would be able to afford flower centerpieces but with them I can. I also really like that they don't push anything on you and they tell you what things are truly a waste of money. I also can tell you that I am REALLY happy with the quote they gave me!!! Their prices are awesome!!!! Any questions feel free to ask

this will be my centerpiece but I will have the red marbles I bought in the bottom of the bowl and I'm going to put votives around it. I will have a few more roses though. She said it will have 18 roses.

My bridesmaids will have white rose bo-k's with 18 roses...MY FH's bout will be a red rose and my GM's bouts will be a white rose. We are also getting a throw away Bo-k with roses, petals to toss, roses/petals to decorate the cake.
