Tips for ordering flowers

You probably know more about flowers than you think you do! People are becoming more and more familiar with flowers as they become an integral part of our modern culture and play a role in most major life experiences and social settings.




However, professional florists are the real experts, whether you're interested in flower care or varieties. They can help you fine-tune your knowledge of flowers. Florists can also suggest design styles for any occasion. Build a relationship with your local florist, and let him or her be your floral mentor.

Let wedding season begin....

Now that Valentine's has past, wedding season has begun! The last of our spring brides have been coming in to finalize their details.We are all looking forward to the outdoor weddings of May and June! If you haven't picked your florist yet and your wedding is this year...get moving! Those of us floral designers that have been around for a while see it every spring and summer, some one who walks in the door late in the season and has not reserved a florist yet. Many of us are already booked solid, and a reputable flower shop will not overbook themselves. So our advise is always once you pick the date, make sure you have all your vendors reserved!
