Dream flowers
We nailed down our florist. It was quite simple really. I found her via craigslist because really, it's such a great resource for vendors (especially affordable ones).
She runs her shop out of her home to cut overhead costs. She's located up in Maryland so her and I met in Bethesda a couple Fridays ago (and I dragged my fiance. Just for giggles. He got made fun of by coworkers) and discussed the options.
Ladies, I'm having my dream flowers. All of our flowers for less than $1,000 (my goal).
Tulips. My September wedding will have tulips.
Five pink and five white tulips will be our centerpieces in a small round vase. Exactly what I wanted. My bouquet will be a combination of mums, hydrangeas, tulips and daisies. The girls will have spider mums and spray mums.
I am...beyond thrilled not just because I'm getting my favorite flower, but also because I won't have to do it myself which I was nervous about given my lack of DIY-craftiness. Not to mention, it's another thing checked off the list which is a relief given that our wedding is in 3 and a half months. It's all going by so quickly! The dates are planned for my bridal shower as well as my bachelorette...EEK!

What is the name of your florist?! That deal sounds amazing!
What is the name of your florist? I'm getting married and MD and so are a bunch of my friends and we're looking for someone affordable!!
I would love love love to get her name. What you're describing sounds exactly like what I want--I even have vessels (using my grandmother's glassware, which is special because she just passed away). But the idea of DIY everything makes me more than a bit scared. Help?
