Flower Porn

A week or so ago Mr Frenchie, Mama Frenchie and I had our first appointment with our florist. I think I came over prepared, but I had heard so many horror stories from my former bride friends. Everyone told me to be as specific as possible to avoid getting some thing we I didn't like. Personally, I don't like orchids, green flowers and easter lillies.


So I made sure there were no pictures of these flowers in the Inspiration I brought with me. I'm hoping this helps me avoid seeing these flowers make their way into the arrangements. Instead, I brought wth me pictures of bright, "fluffy" flowers and daisies. I knew not all of these would be available in August, but I wanted these pictures to convey the over all feel I was going for.

Row 1 - Pic 1, Pic 2, Pic 3, Pic 4
Row 2: Pic 1, Pic 2, Pic 3, Pic 4
Row 3: Pic 1, Pic 2, Pic 3, Pic 4
Row 4: Pic 1, Pic 2, Pic 4
Row 5: Pic 1, Pic 2, Pic 3, Pic 4

Durning the appointment we decided that my bouquet would look to Row 1 - Pic 3 and Row 5 - Pic 4 and the Bridesmaids bouquets would look similar to Row 3 - Pic 3.
The centerpieces are a toss-up right now between Row 1- Pic 2 or something similar with different flowers... or both.

When you met with your florist, did you have a specific picture for inspiration? or did you bring an abundance like me?
