Don't tell Dad!!!

So I went to the florist yesterday and after the second meeting with them finally got a price quote (which about made me puke). I thought as I was hearing her read everything back to me "this might get a bit pricey". Oh boy was I wrong. It was beyond that. If I gave you 3 guesses I bet I would have to tell you higher each time. I never knew I liked flowers so much.

......Wait that's the thing I don't. I like simplicity. When this wedding started I was going to have the bridesmaids carry down a sing stem Calla Lilly and now everyone has a bouquet. I also came up with the wacky Idea to have flower balls hanging from the ceiling of the tent and on gardeners hooks around the ceremony site and 16 roses per vase for some centerpieces.

I think I went a little over board. So now we take a step back into reality and revamp my ideas.

Back to Simplicity/Reality!!!!!

Lets just say the price that she told me made my dad use the "F" work followed by no. As I tried to explain to him I know....I know..... I just did not want to look like an idiot saying oh my, we just sat here for a second 1 hr session and now I have to do it all again, start over. Sorry Lady but I need you for another hour. Mom just says quietly after I pulled her in the other room and said "don't tell Dad", "maybe you should try to knock off a few thousand". OH YEAH a FEW THOUSAND.

So how much was the bill going to be?!?!?!?! 8 grand. Yup 8 stinking grand. Who the hell needs 8 grand in flowers. Not me!!! So trust me mom more than a few thousand is coming off of that bill and dad can stop cursing and let his blood pressure settle.

So I resorted back to reality and simplicity and now I think the bill will be one I can bring home and introduce to daddy-as long as he has had a few :).
