Seeing florist tomorrow - need lots of help!

Purple Pixie, 28 May, 2011 at 15:25 Posted on Planning 0 8

We've got an appointment with our florist tomorrow and due to reasons I won't bore you with we haven't had time to think about our flowers much. I have a list of things we want but haven't managed to pull together, or even really think about, the types of flowers we want and the styles of things.

So, would you lovely ladies and gents mind posting pics of your plans (or actual) bouquets, button holes and table centrepieces? There will be lots of other flowers we need but I think these three things will determine what everything else looks like.

TIA, PP x

    Lots of different designs, colours etc on my website to give you a bit of inspiration. All these are artificial but all can be done in fresh flowers by your florist. A lot depends on your height and the style of your dress but your florist can advise you on all these things and show you photos in her portfolio too.

    Thanks RF, I'll have a look.

    leni-lw - I love the foliage on yours too. I've got a real hatrid (no idea why) of foliage except for the dark green chunky stuff (very technical ?)

    Thanks for sharing. I'm very impressed with anybody who can arrange flowers, I can't arrange a single rose ?
