Hi all! I am getting married October 1, 2022. I have already booked my venue, photographer, and hair stylist, and so far through the vendor booking process I've discovered that October 1, 2022 is a popular date and many vendors are already booked! I started looking at vendors a few months ago but now I'm kicking planning into high gear and trying to get all the vendors booked within the next 1-2 months.
However, I am unsure what to do about booking a florist. I have a few places in mind that I really like and would like to book, however I am nervous to meet with them and discuss specifics since I am so early in the planning stages. I have an idea of a color scheme I'd like to go for, but I'm nervous that within the next 1.5 years I will totally change my mind and want something else. I think I have a good idea what I will need in terms of decorating the venue (flowers for the ceremony arch, hanging flowers for the reception), but in terms of what actual flowers I would want I have no idea!
When you book your florist, do you need to nail down all the exact specifics from the start? I just don't want to wait until it's too late and not be able to get a florist I really love. It seems like with COVID pushing back 2021 weddings, 2022 weddings need to be booked ASAP and the stress is already starting to get to me!
