Re: OFFICIAL National Floral Wholesale THREAD!

I booked NFW back in may. They were awsome when I went in. I have a vase I want to put each centerpiece in, and she made me a sample right then and there. My brother book his flowers at the same time with a different florist and paid 3xs the prices... and he had patched of grass and tiny little rose centerpieces. I was definitely pleased with the representation in the store!

Re: OFFICIAL National Floral Wholesale THREAD!

I am meeting with Ana on Saturday. This is my first meeting with a florist. I have an idea of what I want, like I know I want yellow roses and what shape bouquet, but for my centerpieces, church baskets-I am not really sure. Will I look stupid if I show up without set ideas?

Any advice?
TIA

I showed up with one thing: CHEAP!

Ana showed me some books, nothing really popped out to me, so we talked about what I wanted overall. I was there for about two hours, and by the end, I knew exactly what i wanted, how much it was, and scheduled to come in for a sample CP.

You'll be fine!
