Reccomend florists who won't laugh at me.

I'm only doing three bouquets, a handful of bouttenican'teverfrigginspellthisword-s, and a couple of mom corsages.

Who is worth the time to talk with about this? No one that's pushy re: floral centerpieces. I don't want them.

Gerber daisies, very simple...so simple that I'm considering doing it on my own the day before if I can't find anyone who thinks my order is worth their time.

What about just going to a local florist- nearby where you are getting ready? They'll probably be a lot cheaper, won't scoff at you or pressure you to purchase more, and you won't have to worry about delivery times/fees since it'll be so close by.

Re: Reccomend florists who won't laugh at me.

I think a local florist would probably be good. They get requests for corsages and boutonnieres all the time, so I'm sure they won't laugh at you. Plus, your bouquets will be really easy to make.

I wouldn't do it the night before because I'd be so stressed and worried about them. Just me, though.

I'd recommend Flower Michele.. I originally went in not wanting floral centerpieces and they didn't give me any problems.

highly recommend!

ITA. I have heard of other girls just getting a few things from them. I think some of the larger florists (ie. Flower Michele, etc.) will only deal with you if you are getting CP's too.
