30 Days...

So today, I went to visit a Korean Florist and had the most horrific experience ever.

Even though I am getting married on Valentine's Day does not mean I want to hear the employee/owner or whoever babble on asking WHY my wedding had to be on V-Day.

When I told the lady when I needed my wedding flowers, she immediately retorted with "Ugh, even though it's flowers for a wedding, it's not welcoming to hear that it's on Valentine's Day."

WTF?!?!

There are reasons that it was on V-Day and I don't expect the person to understand. All I wanted to know was if the person could do the flowers or not. I don't think I am obligated to spill my life story that will result with "so this is why it's on Valentine's Day..."

The lady was very wishy-washy and told me what I wanted didn't look good... and barely gave any suggestions... and even when she did give me suggestions, she seemed so unsure on what she was trying to convey that I wanted to punch her.

In the end, it resulted with her telling me we needed to wrap things up because it was past 7 and she needed to close the store since it was past store closing hours... and she also told me that her wedding designer was on vacation and she said that the wedding designer would be back next week... then changed her mind and told me she was unsure exactly when she would be returning... so she asked me to leave my phone number and that she would call me back when the designer did return... and she made sure to throw in another mumble of "Why on Valentine's day....?" along with "Don't give your business to somewhere else! Come back to us and we will give you a good deal!"

By the end of our short 10 minute meeting, I was frustrated and annoyed. Thankfully, no one got hurt and we left in a hurry from that store.

On a side note, Rico and I met with Susan Sabo (http://www.susansabophotography.com/) last night. After talking to her over dinner and going through her printed portfolio, we decided that she was the one for us!

Also, Rico and I went to IMP with Mom and put a deposit on the reception venue.

Slowly, it seems to be slowly coming together.

P.S. Why the heck are flowers so expensive????
