Texas-Dallas and Ft. Worth

Free-lance Floral Designer

Does anyone know of a person that can do the flowers for me if I supply all of the flowers?  I just need the bouquets and bouts.  All of the centerpieces and additional arrangements are being done by my aunt, but she can't handle everything so she asked me to order the bouquets and bouts from someone else.

I tried calling around, but all of the stores have a policy against doing that.  So it would have to be just a 'word of mouth' thing I'm assuming.

    Well, how much are you looking to spend for that?  How many BM's and GM's do you have?

    The florist that I'm using has an AWESOME package for only $400

    You might try Thuy Nguyen-Paulo 469-321-1057.  That was Melissaandjoel's florist and at the time, she worked out of her home.  Melissa's flowers were really lovely.

    Here's another one:  Kim May, 214-315-5610

    I would also try Gloria with Blooming Accents - she did all my flowers and I only ordered bouquets and bouts (and mom/dad bouts/hand things).  She was very, very reasonable! (She didn't do my centerpieces).

    I'll check it all out.  Thanks!

    Brianna I'll search for your florists' name. I think I saw you posted on them not too long ago.

    Stephie - I tried that number and it now belongs to a "Robert".  Darn!

    A former knottie used this girl as a DOC, but when I met with her to discuss her DOC she informed me she also does flowers too. PM and I'll send you her info.

    Darn!  I was afraid of that.  I went back and added Kim May's info (which is also old but might work.)  I never recommend Craigslist but in this case since you just want someone to put the flowers together, that might work.

    Getting a florist/DOC is a great idea too if you don't have a DOC already.

    I have a DOC, but I'll see if she'll do it separate.  I doubt it, but it's worth a shot.  I did call Kim May and she gave me her email.  Hopefully it's not too expensive.  I feel good about it after talking to her though.

    Thuy changed both her cell phone number and her email and I have not been able to get her new contact info.
