Every Action Has A Reaction

griffins — Wed, 13 Jul 2011 02:43:05 +0000

Today I was reminded by a bridal client that “Every Action Has A Reaction”, as was the client. Her wedding is in one week and they went yesterday to see the wedding coordinator of the venue in which their reception will be held. The coordinator made what was an innocent change to the layout of the head table that we had designed. The change was simple and truly innocent, she increased the length of the table, she felt it would offer a more proportionate look to the room, as it was a Tuscan style table being placed in the center of the room. The client didn’t think twice about the change, seemed good to them. So if this was the “Action”, what was the “Reaction”? This change resulted in a $350 increase to the clients event as a result of needing five more linen rentals, an additional centerpiece, and additional candle light. Why the increase? Well the head table design was set for four tables, and the new layout changed that to nine tables, thus forcing us to cover those tables. Upon informing the client that the change required additional items, resulting in higher costs, one can only imagine their shock. No one thought about the “Cause and Effect” part of it, it had originaly been designed that way to help offset budget.

Lesson: Make sure you understand the “Reaction” of your “Actions” in life, especially when on a budget.

Funeral Flowers – Customize Them

griffins — Mon, 11 Jul 2011 22:28:26 +0000

I had a family come in today to order sympathy flowers for a loved one. It is always difficult to convay your sympathy for them while they are coming to you for funeral flowers. Over the years, I have come to believe the best thing I am able to offer a family is my professional experience of twenty plus years. I love to offer the family customized funeral designs that are close to both the deceased and the family. Something you are not able to do when order from a local funeral home. Today was a great example of this. The deceased was a big time bird hunter. To honor this love and passion, the family has brought to me past birds that he has harvested and mounted. We will work this into the funeral designs to offer the family comfort in knowing it is something he would love. We won’t let them down, it will be stunning!!!! I will try to post some pictures of the designs when they are completed, this will offer a sample of just how you might customize Columbus funeral flowers for someone you might have lost and would like to honor in a speacial way.
