I just got back from Burtons...

OK can I just say that John is the nicest person I have ever met in my entire life??!!??

He was SOO patient and knowledgable and showed me all these ideas and bouquets (Im sooo not a flower person!) and I am actually EXCITED about flowers!!!

The bouquets they were making for the weddings tonight were AMAZING and I have no doubt that they will do a wonderful job.

He explained that they only do weddings and they get fresh flowers every weekend and then chuck them on Sunday. He also explained how they offer any choice of flowers...he said that they used to do it per flower but brides just kept changing there minds and it was a hassle and a lot of birdes want different things, so if one bride wants a cheaper flower and one a expensive it evens out at the end of the day and thats all that matters.

YAY..I have a florist. he even gave me a lavendar rose to take home!!

Anyone thining about it, book an appointment with them.. they were just SO nice.

My vendors are FINALLY all booked!

I was at Burtons today too to finalize my flowers. You wouldnt happen to be the girl with her FH who stole the bouquet from me, are you?

LOL

No I was by myself.. around 1130. FH was supposed to come but someone opened a T mobile account using his info and was trying to straighten things out.

The brides bouquet they had to show me was SO beautiful though

The calalillies right?

Thats what I am using. And they had my centerpieces made while I was there too. High calla lily vases. They are awesome.

Re: I just got back from Burtons...

I saw the yellow and sunset calla lily bouquet which was a bridesmaids bouquet and also a orange-y red-ish roses bride bouquet with stephonies and maybe some calla's too

I booked with them as well. They are wonderful. I know nothing about flowers and the other vendors we went to made me pick out exactly what I wanted on the spot. John very understanding of my lack of knowledge!

Thats why I liked them because I dont even know the color of my BM dresses yet so it would be impossible to pick flowers.. and all the good vendors are booking up so this was perfect.
