- Hello Jo!
I received the PDF Package and it's absolutely fantastic! I was amazed at all of the information that was provided. It was exactly what I was looking for after I decided to do my own fresh floral arrangements.
I've already done several silk arrangements in the past, but I was determined to have fresh floral at the wedding...and do it myself after I got my first floral quote for $4,000. Yes, that's right $4K!!! I was shocked! Who has money like that!!?
Anyways, I love the package and was so grateful to have stumbled upon your site while searching for fresh floral suppliers. I'm sure I will have many questions...my wedding is July 14th. I think right now, my only question is: who are reputable online suppliers that I could use and when should I order my flowers? Thank you for such a wonderful kit...I will be telling many brides about your helpful site.
Thank you again!
Melody
- Jo,
Your site was such a huge help for me. It was an all in one shop/stop for every question I had about wanting to do this myself. I'm a very crafty person...my poor fiancé knows this...as I have a closet in my home dedicated to nothing but crafts..."The Craft Closet"...or as some would delicately put it, "The Crap Closet". :)
When you're on such a tight wedding budget like we are...$5,000
for the whole kit and kaboodle...you have to get creative, inventive
and resourceful. People don't realize how much you pay for convenience
and they also don't realize that you can do these things on your
own. It's so simple! It's not rocket science...it's just a different
approach that requires a little more time and research, but can
and will be done.
Imagine the money we've saved already! Weddings
today go for $15 to $25K...and I live in the Heartland! Imagine
what it's like in New York or California. We've done alot of our
wedding purchasing from online...you can't just settle for your
local store with a markup of 40%.
I think that what you and your
husband are doing is absolutely fantastic. It's already been a
huge, huge help for us. I appreciate how quickly you are to respond.
Thank you so much already for helping me with those questions...and
the 10% discount for the wholesale flowers! Could I possibly ask
for anything better!? :)
I will definitely be in touch with you
as I begin to decide on my flowers. All the best of luck with
your business and website. You're doing a fantastic job! Thanks
again so very much!
Melody
- Hi Jo!
I have attached a picture of the flowers that I absolutely LOVE. Colors and all. I wrote to the florist that made this bouquet to see what flowers they are and this is what she wrote.....
I am not a flower expert at all, but it seems like there are some
missing. Regardless, I would like to create a bouquet very similar
to this, but possibly with some less expensive flowers. Can you
please recommend some specific flowers and greenery that can give
me a similar look and colors?
Thanks so much for your help! Once
we can figure out which flowers, I will really appreciate your
help with how many to order. Your service is a life saver!
Amy
- Jo,
This is SO helpful! Thank you so much!
If I where to go with the flowers listed below, what flowers would you recommend for the corsages and Boutonnieres? I have to make 6 corsages and 11 boutonnieres, so I want them to look good, but not be too complicated.
Also, I am trying to find a wholesaler on line where I can purchase these flowers at wholesale prices. There seem to be quite a few. Have you found one that people have been particularly happy with?
Thanks!
Amy
- Jo,
Very helpful once again! Thanks! I am learning a lot! :)
Amy
- Jo,
I'll most probably be chatting with you LOTS!! Both the wedding and reception will be at a local hotel.
I'm tasked with converting a "blank canvas" ballroom into a soft, romantic atmosphere.
My daughter would like to see more floral than greenery so I've got my work cut out for me. Can't wait to dig into your material.
I'm thinking bicolor roses as the primary flowers. Do you have a recommended grower?
Becky
- Jo,
Thanks for the reply. Looks like you're a great communicator -- I'm going to enjoy working with you.
So many beautiful options!! We'll have lots of fun.
Chat with you later,
Becky
- Hi Jo --
Well, your planning guide and worksheets have been great tools. Now I'm down to some questions for you ...
Becky
- Hello Jo,
Thank you for responding to my questions. I think you were right on target. I can take your advice and use it for sure.
I will definitely be in touch and let you know how things go...
Thanks for your time!!
