Day 32: July 31st Bouquets and Florists

Went out all day with my mom today to visit florists and locations to do hair and make-up for the big day.  We headed first to Sponsellers in Berryville since it is right down the road. 

I love looking at flowers!  We played with colors and different textures to figure out what we would do for the bridal bouquets, the corsages, etc.  We worked for about an hour before we had to leave to meet up with the next florist.  I thought that Sponsellers did a good job AND they were not nearly as expensive as I had expected them to be.

From Berryville, we headed out to Shepherdstown to visit the second florist.  I took a picture of the church in town because the florist didn't really have anything set up to look at.  The main designer wasn't in the shop that day so we ended up doing a lot of describing for the flowers instead of getting to point out exactly what we wanted.

The price estimate was pretty much the same as the previous location but there wasn't a lot of other information on which to make a decision so the appointment was pretty short.

We next headed back through Berryville and ate a lovely Mexican lunch at the Mexican Restaurant and Karaoke place, the place looks awesome!  So I know if anyone is looking for something else to do in Berryville, exactly where you should go!

Finally we headed out to Purcellville to look at a couple of spa places for the make-up and hair.  I found a great place which is affordable, and they look pretty nice inside and had a very nice group of people working there.

We went to Purcellville Florist last who was a very lovely woman and who picked out some really pretty flower options for us.  We don't quite know what the price will be here although she is mailing me the estimate and that will probably be what makes the difference.  She had  a good idea of what I was looking for (and my mom) and everything looked really pretty.

So a very productive day!
