I think you should schedule your centerpieces now. I don't think they will do a bouquet sample.

Usually the best time is when your flowers are in season. Since you are getting married in May, I thinks you should go ahead and schedule now.

My florist told me that we will do it about a year away from my wedding, that way the same flowers are in season. Since you are getting married this year, I'd say try to do it as soon as you can, since the flowers you will be using are probably going to be in season very soon.

Re: How far in advance...

I made my florist do it for me before booking. Since you already booked I would do it 60 days in advance... trust me you will change your mind if you do it too far in advance.

I was originally told June or December the year before, but just saw centerpieces samples for two reasons I've changed my venue and the person I was originally working with left the company with no explanation.
