Was told at a meeting that some florists are seeing brides coming in to reduce flower content because they're running out of money/seeing other rises. Has anyone else experienced that?

We have seen an increase in their spend on flowers this year (or could we have been too cheap last year ? )

Treboeth, Swansea. Gemma, You ?

Thanks everyone you're super stars just what i needed!!

Oddly, the last 2 months we've been having brides add on to their wedding as they've got close to the date. It's as though when they booked last year they were worried about the cost and only ordered the basics, and now it's got closer to the day they have more spare and have added on extras. We saw last week's wedding increase from £350 to £970 3 weeks before the wedding! and I have a bride coming to see us tomorrow for her wedidng early july and she's looking at adding on reception flowers which she wasn't previously having, and extra flowers for the church.


Swiss Valley, which is about 1/2 mile from Llanelli town centre FBA. What areas do you deliver to? We can go as far as Pontarddulais or even penllergaer but it's not worth us going further into Swansea although we do get asked. It would be good to know if we could pass them on to you, as we're not with a relay co.
