Flowers for you! Er, for the church.
I really don’t know anything about flowers. All I know is I don’t like roses, because they’re such a cliche; tulips, because they really don’t look pretty to me, and are ridiculously expensive; and tiger lilies, because Mom used to put them in the house years ago, and their scent gives me headaches.
So when we started checking out florists, I had to ask the names of the flowers that looked pretty, and we had to write them down. So by the time we were meeting with florists and talking about packages and options and such, we had a list of flowers we liked! Yay!
Unfortunately, Fernwood is rather strict about florists for the chapel, and we can only hire accredited florists: Flowers of May, 15-58 Flowers and Styles, and Scenta Flowers. We met with account execs from all three, just to see what they could offer, and which one we were most comfortable with. After meeting all three, we decided on 15-58.
So this evening we met with their AE, Rina, in Gateway, signed the contract, and paid the reservation fee. Yay flowers!
We’re getting calla lilies, mums, and aster. As for the arrangement, you’ll see it on the big day!
