Hi everyone! Couldn't sleep for worrying about a wedding I'm doing next week.
Not sure why, as I've done a few now and always had good feedback. I should learn to chill!
Please, could anyone give some advice on roses? I'm looking to order a large headed orange rose ~ something really juicy, if you get my drift, and another, slightly paler shade to compliment it.
Any ideas?

Hi rosi,
Who is your supplier? If I am not sure which roses to use I give mine a ring. They are a family run business with years of experience. What they don't know about flowers isn't worth knowing. If you are in the North West of England let me know and I will pass their name and number onto you. ps. Are you a florist - they only deal with trade.

Hi Rainbow and louise!

I work for a florist in Brighton and do a bit of private work from home. I don't really have a problem with the suppliers, I think I'm just having a small panic about ordering in advance and hoping I've got it right.
I will talk to my supplier and see what he comes up with but if you have an suggestions in the mean time, I would be grateful. It's always nice to get ideas from other florists.

Oh Rosie, my daughter lives in Brighton, what a wonderful place to be situated. I will have a think today about big and small yellow roses that go together well. I'm sure you will be just fine with the wedding. My first few alone had me worried too, but that's not a bad thing. It's when you get too complacent there is a problem. All the best.
