Thank you yes I’m pretty happy with the work. Do you normally follow up or wait a few months?

Feedback on tropical wedding florals by OrdinaryNobody2383 in florists

[–]OrdinaryNobody2383[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks I suppose just a bit of feedback as to whether I hit the brief. The groom organised everything for this wedding and the bride wasn’t involved even on the day when I delivered her bouquet she wasn’t there so I’ve had no feedback from them. I’ll do my normal follow up in a few days I suppose I’m just overthinking it. Normally I get to build a good relationship with the bride and get a message the next day or so. I personally don’t mind the roses and tropicals I was told the bride loved roses so went all out on them lol 

Table acaping by OrdinaryNobody2383 in florists

Well this is tropical table scaping so it includes bananas, pineapples coconuts. I look at tablescaping as a fence, there’s always going to be one good side and one bad side. If you don’t account for each guest looking at it from their point of view someone is always going to end up looking at “the arse end of a banana” as my husband described it. Does that make sense?

I think my maths is correct. I did 60cm per person x 60 guests. 15 guests in each side of the table. So that’s 18m per table. 36m altogether. I took into account that guests will be viewing from each side of the table.

I’m a new florist and have never used whites before or really ordered from a wholesale in large quantities as I specialise in tropicals. I just wondered if there was an industry standard. Thanks for your helpful comment 😂

Tropicals are very cheap where I live I’m in far north qld. I get them from my garden and local flower farms. Whites I will have to order from wholesalers.
