Help needed on massed bouquet please!
Just had a wedding enquiry for a massed bouquet for a bride of roses (she is 5'7) and two bridesmaids bouquets. Would anyone be able to hazard a guess at how many roses I'd need, please? Thanks

Open to suggestions as this is the first time I've done one of these working for myself, I've only ever done it in a shop before! I am throwing myself upon your mercy!

word of advice-take 20 avalance in your hand...head to head...then 20 bianca, that way you'll see how big/small your bq will be. our (boring)standard artemis bq...which i think i'll take out of the portfolio cuz its really is boring!) usually has +/- 16 in it. sometimes fewer if i get em early enuf to let them open, and a few more if the heads are piddly.
I find it hard to say EXACTLY how many cuz there really is a difference from delivery to delivery! B-maids bq's-usually use only 5 or 7 to make it deffinately look smaller...wouldn't want to overshadow the bride!


all this coming from a country faaaaaar away...so maybe all crap i'm telling you!!
