Hi all,
First post after lurking for a few months! I've been planning on DIYing florals from Sam's Club/Costco, but given my date is during peak wedding season time, I'm wondering if there may be an opportunity in finding brides who are having Friday weddings the day before mine and offering to buy their florals off of them after their weddings are over.
I know there is a website or two that have launched with the aim of facilitating such transactions, but they haven't really taken off and there are so few listings on them - and definitely none in my area.
Would it be totally weird to ask florists in the area of my wedding if they already have contracts for weddings the day before mine, and see if they'd be willing to connect me to the bride they are working with to determine if their floral style is similar to mine, and if maybe they'd be willing to let me buy their flowers at a decent discount when they are done with them? Has anyone here done something similar?
TIA!
