I'm going to start the florist search....

Next thing on my list is florists. Does anyone have suggestions on how many I should see? I was thinking maybe 3-4. With all my other vendors, the more I looked at, the harder it was for me to make my decision.

I need the following:
my bouquet (clutch/hand-tied)
4 bridesmaids bouquets (clutch/hand-tied)
1 throwaway
10-12 pew bows
6 bouts
3-4 corsages
12-14 low centerpieces
dais

I'm getting married in July, so I know most flowers are available and I'm not looking for anything exotic. I think I will stick to roses, peonies and stephanotis.

Is there anything I should be on the lookout for? Anyone have good questions to ask florists?

Thanks!

go until you find one in your price range and that you feel comfortable with...I would say at least 3...to get an idea of prices...

I say 3-4 is fine. After a while it's just about what you are looking for and what fits you best.

We were going to go to 2 or 3 but booked with the first one (Burtons). We liked his arrangements and they were so nice.
