opinion on flower ordering

[happyone]

I don't know how important it is for me to reserve flowers for my wedding. My SIL is an excellent florist and will be arranging them. We are doing drowned cymbidium orchids for the 5 tables at the reception. Then it is just my bouquet, my MOH, and my SIL's bouquets, and a few corsages. We are looking at orchids and roses. I am very flexible and can change flower combos depending upon what is available. Should I pre-order or just get what's available when I get to Cabo next month? I know orchids are pricey but are they hard to come by? I was thinking of going to Pamela Floreria (I think that's what it is called). I kinda just want to show up and go with what is in season when I arrive. Previous Cabo brides, is this a bad decision?

 

Also, I just read that posting on PV and the summer rain. Is it likely to rain in Cabo for my July wedding?

 

Thank you!

I'd strongly recommend to pre-order them beforehand, if you get what's available they may not be as fresh. If you pre-order them they will get them specially for you based on the date you need them for. Rain... not really, the critical months are August and September, July has slim chances of rain. Visit weather.com they have previous year's averages.

Thanks for the advice Dino! I will definitely call and order first thing on Monday.

I would think you would want to order them too.

 

I dont think you should be expecting Rain. Even if it is there "rainy" season it still hardly rains, from what I have read anyways.

Order them in advance. You never know what will happen, what if you are left with no flowers? You don't want to have to worry about anything on your wedding day. We had a bride a few weeks ago that had her mother doing the flowers. She ended up with silk because they couldn't find what they wanted/enough the weekend of the wedding, and that was in their own city.

You should be fine for rain - in 2007 I was told they only had 6 days of rain in total for the whole year!
