Meeting with the florist tomorrow..

I am meeting with Flowers by Burton tomorrow and wanted to get some advice from you gals as to how I should prepare for this appointment.

I know the look I am going for but I am not sure of the names of the flowers.

I looked in books and got an idea of what I wanted. I didnt know flowers either. Just gave him my ideas.

Did you book with them yet, or is this your initial meeting?

It will be short...they'll give you a book to look at, but I didn't find it helpful, because I had a very specific idea of what I was looking for, and flowers weren't really it LOL. They'll ask you how many things you'll need, CPs, BOQs, corsages, bouts, etc, and they'll give you a price based on quantity, not quality. Very straightforward. Just know the colors you want and you'll be good!
