Ask a Question
Wedding Flowers

I need your help BIG TIME ladies!

So, my FH's cousin has a florist friend that works in the floral department at Kroger [grocery store for all my non-midwest readers]. She said I might get a better price if i went through her. Well, big surprise, she is already booked.

However, She said she still wants to do my bouquets. She said I could also have more flowers, she just wont be available to deliver them and set them up. Well, do you girls think it is possible for me to order flowers and ask my decorator to put them together? This decorator usually does this with her own fake flowers anyway.

Also, I dont have a problem picking them up or asking the decorator to pick them up because the kroger is literally right across the street from the reception venue [classy, i know... but in this case its quite convenient].

Also, I'm thinking of really simple arrangements that have a messy charm about them so its not like precision is needed for this anyway [see pictures to the left].

What do you think? Am I underestimating the floral aspect? should I find a new florist altogether? HELP.

I think finding a new florist may end up being less stressful as you wont have to figure out who's going to put the bouquets together, whos going to deliver them etc. But if you don't have a problem figuring all that stuff out and it ends up costing you less in the end then I say go for it! :) Just make sure it's not going to cause you any stress, because planning a wedding is already stressful enough!! :)

I def agree with littlelamb..Great advice! I think it all depends if its gonna create stress. Don't stress your self out more than you need to. I say look for another florist(just my thought). Love your inspirational pics especially the baby breathes:)
