And now, I'm happy to report that the Coyotes have finally decided on a florist. Yippee!!
To recap, Momma Coyote and I met with two florists. One was very straightforward and gave me exactly what I showed him in photos while the other was more creative and kind of ran with my inspiration to create something new. Both were great options, but after a few conversations with the more creative florist I realized that we just had two very different visions. I found that I had trouble explaining to her the kind of feel I wanted for our wedding -- something that I did not run into with the other florist.
We are meeting with our florist in a few weeks to nail down the specifics and in the meantime I'm gathering some more inspiration so I'm better prepared for our next chat.
I still luuuurve calla lilies (although I don't love the dolla signs that come with them) so I know without a doubt that at least some burgundy callas will make an appearance and maaaaybe some hot pink ones too:

I'd also like to add some pink orchids and alstroemeria to the mix:

It's so difficult to imagine how all of these separate pieces will look together, but our florist has offered to do a mock-up for us and will work with us to make sure that we get the exactly what we want. I'm hoping for that simple-yet-elegant-OMG-look-how-purty-those-flowers-are look that I've been envisioning in my little bride brain. You know what I'm talking about, right?!
I'm so happy that we have finally decided on a florist and even happier that I've (somewhat) narrowed down my vision for wedding day flowers.
How did you decide what type of flowers to use?
