Ask The Wedding Guide: I am from Kentucky, and am getting married on Mexico Beach in June and am having trouble locating a florist to make the bouquets for my bridal party. I need bouquets for 4 bridesmaids, 2 jr bridemaids, and 3 flower girls. I would like white daisies and hot pink gerbera daisies. Greenery is ok but i hate babies breath, and I would like them tied with white ribbon. I would like the bouquets to increase in sz from a small nosegay with 1 gerber and a few daisies for the flower girls, to 2 gerbers and more daisies for jrs, and 3 gerbers and more daisies for bridesmaids. I also need 2 corsages for our moms in the same flowers. If anyone knows a good florist I would appreciate the help! Thanks Nicole

If you are using a wedding package provider for the wedding ceremony and reception, contact them and ask them where you can get wedding flowers. They often work with other wedding vendors who provide the services that they don't. If you are coordinating your own wedding, contact the hotel in Mexico where you will be staying and ask for the concierge desk or guest relations agent who can recommend a local and reputable florist. If you are not fluent in spanish, be sure to ask for an email address. This way you can communicate via email and by using babelfish as a translator. Babel fish isn't the best translator but it will help to get the point across.
Where are in Mexico are you getting married? Someone who has been there might have a suggestion.
Congratulations and good luck.
