Re: What do you do first, BM dresses OR flowers?

I don't think it matters. I picked a florist first, I still didn't pick dresses, and put a deposit down to hold the date. The florist said that I could change my flowers up to a month before the wedding. She showed me different CP ideas, and told me to come back after I picked the BM dresses and color.

Re: What do you do first, BM dresses OR flowers?

I choose my flowers before I ordered the dresses. I knew the colors I wanted and style of dress. Then I went to the florist and explained my ideas.

I agree. Even if you just have an idea of the color you are going to do with the BM dresses, it will really help the florist out :)

I went with Floist first, and since I now have my dress, and the BM dresses, a lot of my original 'visions' have changed. So, it may help to do your dress, BM dresses, and then florist.
