1. Let your florist know what style you like and the color scheme. I swear you will get kick ass flowers if you are already using a kick ass florist. Check out my original designs if you don't believe me.

2. A florist's best work comes when you give direction, not a picture. Pictures are an awesome reflection of your vision so definitely bring them to your consultation. Let's just use them as reference shall we? Nothing like trying to replicate an exact picture to suck the fun out of us making your wedding beautiful!
2. Don't freak over the little stuff. I got you, Girl. So, the Calypso roses you love so much came in looking ratty so I replaced them with a close match, you still love your husband and he still loves you even though you have a weird obsession with Calypso roses and that is all that matters. You will have your orange roses and no one will ever know. Promise.

3. Buy toilet paper at Costco, not your wedding flowers. Most local flower shops can get pretty close to Costco prices and the design will be magnificent as opposed to ho-hum. And supporting locally owned shops and restaurants makes you smarter, it's a fact, look it up. And did I mention we will do the set up? No, your mom doesn't need to have pit stains in that gorgeous dress, she can laugh at my pit stains while she sips lemonade in the shade.

4. Be Realistic. Everyone wants their picture perfect bouquet on their wedding day. Not everyone has the budget but that is okay. Flowers have seasons and some flowers cost more than others. By bringing pictures in and working within your budget, we can create something you will love and that you can afford. They will be gorgeous, see #1.
