Concord area girls..

Who did you or are you using for a florist?  I am stuck on this one.  I don't want to use a teleflower or FTD florist, looking for someone who is ultra creative, and thinks outside the box.

    lots of girls use party blooms in Charlotte, I personally used fiftyflowers.com and arranged them all myself the Thursday before the wedding.

    I'm using Chelish Moore.  She's on Market St.  She only does special event flowers, so no cookie cutter arrangements :-).

    We used Party Blooms. I've heard good things about Village Blossom in Afton.

    Thanks ladies!  I went to village blossom today, you need to give $100 to do a consultation though so if i don't like them i am out 100.  They seem nice tough.I think the next ones on the list will be Chelish Moore and Party Blossoms!

    That's ridiculous. I would never give someone a deposit before I even consulted with them!

    Before I forget, Chelish is out of the country until Nov. 1, so if you can wait until after that I would. She's GREAT to work with. She's taking a much deserved and delayed vacation (her boyfriend passed away this year), but her staff has taken great care of me. Luckily my wedding is after she gets back into town on Nov. 14th.

    I am using Patty Davis of Carolina Roses.  She's sweet and easy to work with.

    I used Party Blooms & really love what she created for me. I'm gonna post some really crappy pictures for you :)We had two different centerpieces.

[IMG]http://i38.tinypic.com/2vanwb7.jpg[/IMG]I showed her pictures of what I loved & we talked about flowers that we like & she took it from there!
