meeting with florist...

Just met with my second florist option and I felt so much better knowing what I wanted when I went in this time! She let me take the books home over the weekend to go through..and I went in mostly sure of everything I wanted with only a few questions about some decisions. Now hopefully its all under budget! I feel like I'm using so many different flowers though. Its only like 5 different ones haha. We're using Stargazer Lilies, pale and hot pink Roses and Alstromeria for the WP and for the moms I'm doing a Glad and grandparents are getting mini Carnations. I'm so excited about the BM bouquets I think they're just elegant and classy, simple and different!
EDIT: link added of sample picture. Only the lily will be a stargazer instead of white and the smaller flowers will bt the alstromeria! Hope the link works!!! http://m.yahoo.com/w/search/lp/web/mmimage/detail.bp%3B_ylt=A2KL8xgVIM1P6A4A7xBqOy4J?i=6&q=lily+and+bells+of+ireland+bouquet&s=1&iu=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.silkbouquets.com%2Fimages%2Fhandtie-4a-lg.gif&.intl=US&.lang=en&.tsrc=yahoo&.sep=fp

Sounds lovely ! I have grown up in the florist and garden center business and not sure what your budget is but stargazer lillys are one of the most expensive lillys you can get. In Jersey they sell for $6.99-8.99 a stem depending on the season.

I know they're expensive but that's why my BM's are just going to be one single stargazer with a few alstromeria. Which is way cheaper than what I originally talked over with my first florist visit which was boquets made of roses mini roses and stargazer lilies...plural! But I love this beautiful simple design so much better!

Oh and that was under budget! So I feel like I've downsized and this should be WAY under budget!
