florist is booked!

that's right. another vendor booked! after a recommendation from a fellow huntsville bride from theknot.com message boards, danny and i met with millie & ms. anderson (this is not her real name, but if you went to chs, just picture ms. sharon anderson b/c this woman looked exactly like her...freaky) from huntsville florist a few weeks ago at a cute little coffee shop called stearns.

we chatted about the wedding, our colors, our vision while they took notes. i brought pictures of bouquets i liked, and they made suggestions. millie even gave us a discount, so that the pricing would be more likely to fit into our budget. after this meeting, there was a bit of a mishap with the mailing of our quote from them...tax season & then lack of postage. we got it eventually & took the plunge by sending them our deposit check this week!

this what i imagine my bouquet will look like except for the colors. my bouquet is going to be made up of orange roses, black magic roses, orange mini calla lillies, and little berries.

the maids' bouquets will be all orange. roses & mini calla lillies. something like this.

danny's bout will look pretty much like this, and the groomsmen's bouts will be the same minus the berries.

then we have bouquets for the moms, corsages for the grandmas, bouts for the dads, grandpa, users, and officiant. it all looks very pretty in my mind. :)
