Uneasy..

This weekend my florist did a mock up of my bouquet for the bridal show..I did not like it at all..It was a beautiful bouquet but not what I was expecting. I don't see myself walking down the aisle with that particular bouquet. I haven't put a deposit down, but I did let her know that I want to use her as I have seen her previous work and it's spectacular. How do I politely tell her that the bouquet she mocked up is no longer what I want and not what I expected. I don't want to insult her work because she does wonderful things. tia :]

    Bring a picture of something you really like, and say "The sample you made was really pretty but I just saw this picture and fell in love with it. Do you think you could make something like this?" You don't want to end up being unhappy with your flowers because you didn't give her direction. Good luck!

    I looked through your bio and you have a very different ideas of flowers you like. You have dark, fall colors and light, spring color bouquets. Have you decided on the theme for your wedding? Do you have any particular flowers you want? Look around on peoples bios if the flowers in your bio don't work anymore. I have some great spring flowers in mine and so does pp.

    I LOVE roses and my theme is roses and my colors are black, white and bright yellow. I am going to do some more research on bright yellow & white rose bouquets. Also, I think callas add an elegant touch :]thanks for the advice ladies!

    hey vedika! florists are accustomed to brides changing their minds. she is probably extremely used to that! don't stress. it's just a business transaction. :)
