Monday I had a florist appointment to finalize what flowers i want to put a deposit on...
This is what I picked out:
Bridal Bouquet: 2 dozen lt pink and white roses, white freesia, blue delphium with crystal sparklers and wrapped with white ribbon and secured with rhinestone pins.
Like a mix of these two:
wrapped like this:
Bridesmaid Bouquets: 1 dozen lt pink roses, blue delphium - two wrapped with blue ribbon and two wrapped with green ribbon both secured with rhinestone pins
but without the green sprigs, lillies, etc. Just look at the pink roses with the blue delphinium.
This is the bridesmaid dress:
Groom boutineer: white rose, blue delphium, green hypercum berries and a crystal sparkler
Groomsmen boutineers: lt pink roses, blue delphium, green hypercum berries
Flower girl hair wreath with baby's breath and blue delphinium:
A large box of rose petals to sprinkle down the aisle in mixed pinks
And a cake topper made of white freesia and blue delphium.
Like this but with the blue delphium too:
So we are getting
1 bridal bouquet, 4 bridesmaid bouquets, 1 grooms boutineer, 4 groomsmen boutineers, 1 cake topper, rose petals for the aisle and flower girl basket, a hair wreath for the flower girl and all for under $350
yay.
Aaron and I did go there last year sometime and we got an estimate. The woman who gave us the estimate was gone. At first they said they would still honor our estimate, but then they talked bad about the woman..etc. Then when i asked about how many roses we would get in the bouquets because before it was 12 for the bridesmaids and 18 for me plus a lot of other flowers etc. she said it would be 5 for the bridesmaids and 12 for me. Which I thought was unacceptable.
So i asked to speak to the owner. He came out and said that before it was for a different arrangement etc. I said they were the same thing except I changed the color. So he decided to honor my original price of $40 for the BM bouquets and $80 for mine. Plus they kept everything the same price and anything that had gone up, was replaced with the original prices.
So I'm glad that all worked out. I didnt want to find someone else. I do like them.
Oh..
and we booked a new photographer. His name is Matt. He will be ther all day (not just leaving after the cake cutting like some people who say all day). We get:
100 4x6 proofs in an album
10 5x7
4 8x10
Plus a CD with all high resolution prints with a copyright release so we can print them
We met with him last night at a starbucks in Lodi. He seemed really nice and had some stuff to show us. Plus his prices are reasonable and his work looks nice.
