If a bride has arranged her own flowers elsewhere I try not to think about it! I make sure my work is of the highest standard so you can really tell the difference between a "flower arangers" pedestal arrangement (made out of half a woodland forest and a bunch of grotty supermarket chrysanthemums) and a beautiful table arrangement made by a "floral designer"!. I think most people know enough about flowers these days to be able to tell the difference. I have had a couple of brides ask me if they can supply the flowers (ie their friend is buying them or they have picked them from the garden) and for me to arrange them, they are politely declined their kind offer!
