What did you girls...

order or have made by your florist? I'm trying to get an idea of what may be needed (or I may want) for my ceremony & reception.

Can you guys list it out for me?
Thanks!

Re: What did you girls...

Well it all depends on your ceremony site and time of year. For instance one bride I know is getting married the week after Easter and the florist said her church goes crazy with Easter flowers so she does not need to order anything! I am getting married on 11/2- I need flowers.
-2 altar arrangements
-16 pew bouquets (satin loops with 6 roses)

Reception- I love the Hamlet Windwatch but hate all of their existing fake flower arrangements. I am replacing the placecard table flowers and fireplace flowers with my own arrangement. I am also putting floating candle bowls on 2 tables in their lobby area. But normally, here are some things to consider:
-centerpieces
-cocktail hour- what do they put on the tables
-Enterance arrangement
-ladies room basket (many places provide this)
-Favor/Cake table arrangements or petals
