Met with Helena from PPE last night (Vernon). I was originally only going to rent vases for DIY centerpieces, but then came to grips with the fact that there is NO way I'm going to have the patience or talent to select flowers and pull together bouquets and centerpieces for my wedding.
I decided on red dahlia's, eggplant hydrangea's, purple/pink orchids and black/red roses for centerpieces. they'll be in tall vases with curly willow and surrounded by votives.
Girls bouquets will have Black/red roses, red roses and black mini calas, mine will be the same with some freesia mixed in. Helena's also going to dress teh arch for the ceremony with dark silver fabric and bunches of roses and dahlia's.
I've heard she's very reasonable, so hopefully her proposal will match my budget!
She's very nice and definitely has great ideas and knowledge about flowers.
