help - how do you pick a florist???

I'm new here and have already learned so much from everyone's posts, but I've got a question ... how do you pick a florist. I went to Burton's today and they seen fine - they'll do anything I ask for and seem reasonably priced. I'm going to Jack and Rose on Sunday and I'm sure he'll be just as accomodating and I'll be just as confused. I have an idea of what I want and have a few pictures, but I'm really not that particular and just want a collection of simple, elegant calla lilies.

Everyone has posted so many nice things about both of them I know either choice will be fine, so how do i pick and why even look around?

My wedding is in 3 months, so I'm kinda eager to get a florist booked! help!!!

after seeing both you'll probably notice difference's between the two and see who you like better... if they both seem the same(and both are liked on here by past brides)... then you could always go with the cheaper one(assuming you like them equally)

i'm using Imperial Florist in Baldwin on Grand Ave....Florist's name is Annemarie...She does beautiful work! My family has all used her! And her prices are reasonable too! I don't remember the phone number but look her up....it's worth a try, right?! Good luck!

Thanks for all your help!!!

I do have photos of what I want and sent them to both florists. burton's wasn't too concerned with the exact flowers since they are one price any flower - they just wanted to know high or low centerpieces. I sent the photos to Jack too - I'll see on Sunday.

here are the centerpieces I want.
(I'm not sure how to add more than one i mage or I'd include the bouquet too!)
