Sample Centerpieces?

When do you start seeing your sample CPs? Does yur florist call you or do you need to call them? Thanks!

Re: Sample Centerpieces?

I think you probably need to call them. I'm going to wait closer to the wedding to get mine done since my flowers really aren't in bloom yet.

That's what I figured, I just wasn't sure when to do it.

I saw mine about a week ago. Flower Michele did a great job! They told me so make an apt to see it anywhere from 4-6 weeks before the wedding.

Thanks, Rebecca! I booked Flower Michele also and I get all excited seeing everyone else's sample CPs!

Your CP looks amazing!!!

i booked Pedestals only 3 weeks ago....a week after that we came back down to see our sample.

So i think you get your sample closer to you date

I met with Signature on Friday and I'm going back to book on Friday. George said he'd have a sample CP ready for me to see. He wants me to make sure I'm 100% happy, you gotta appreciate that!

Re: Sample Centerpieces?

I had my sample done before I even booked her, just so I could see a sample and make sure we were on the same page with what I wanted. You could have one done at any time, but I think most people do it closer to the wedding.

Re: Sample Centerpieces?

I had my sample done before I booked as well. I went the first time, went over ideas, colors, got a quote, and they told me I can come in the following week to get a sample CP made. I went a week later, and saw it, fell in love, and booked them then!

Bump because I want to know the answer to this too.

I would think that if you haven't booked them yet, then you couldn't keep it because it would be a great way to scam a florist out of a floral arrangement.

But I would wonder if they would let you keep it if you are booked with them. I only doubt this because a lot of the girls who have posted sample pics show pics taken at the floral shops.
