I just got done working at our booth at the bridal fair. It amazes me that the guy who did our lighting for free did exactly what we wanted, yet the florist who charged $200 didn't do crap. The first table she did some twigs with orchids glued to a branch here and there, then little strings of plastic crystals hanging down there and here. The thing was anchored (or so we thought) in a bed of pink rocks and water with candles floating on the water. It was by no means worth $100. One of our guys carried it to my car after the show and the whole dang thing fell apart. So much for using it again. The other table had a few bud vases with a couple of whit lillies and some whit roses, no centerpiece at all. That table also cost us $100.
There was a great turnout. this was the 2nd fair of the season, the first being 2 weeks ago. Thank God we didn't do both. There is another one coming up in a few more weeks and we aren't doing it either.
*sigh* I am exhausted.
