Ordering Advice:
Floral designers are very creative individuals. Rather than specifying the precise location of every flower in the arrangement, tell them the overall "look" you want (e.g., round arrangement, loose flowers in a vase, etc.) and let them use their creativity to do something spectacular for you!
Not all colors are available for all types of flowers. While you can specify the overall color or colors of the arrangement (e.g., spring colors, fall colors, pastels, etc.), it again is wise to allow the florist to pick the individual colors and flowers so they can give you the best quality.
