If I were you (and the fiancee agrees) I'd just cancel the flowers completely and demand a refund. (nm) - musubi Sep 24, 14:05 8
- where the wedding will be, there is no other source, IIRC. -- nm - zork Sep 24, 14:07 4
  - I understand that. I was suggesting to go flowerless at the wedding. (nm) - musubi Sep 24, 14:10 3
    - what's the bride going to toss? -- nm - loosilu Sep 24, 14:12 2

        waterfront wedding ... this is not out of the question. -- nm - Beryllium Sep 24, 14:18
- they need the rest of the flowers, these ones aren't critical. really, i'd let it slide and not worry, but i wouldn't pay for the lavendar ones. -- nm - Andie Sep 24, 14:06 2
  - Ah, I misunderstood, I thought the lavender was the entirety of the order. Then yes, I'm with you. - musubi Sep 24, 14:09
  - Are they all paid for already? -- nm - the liioulu with less Sep 24, 14:08
is the florist on the island? then they have flowers. - Andie Sep 24, 14:04 6
- they are on Pender Island. The shop is *tiny*, and it's the only one on the island. -- nm - Beryllium Sep 24, 14:05 5
  - i get that, but it's a florist shop right? are you telling me they don't *have flowers* in the shop? -- nm - Andie Sep 24, 14:06 3
    - they don't have WHITE flowers, no -- nm - Beryllium Sep 24, 14:18 1
      - okay, i guess that's *possible*, then just don't sweat it. :) -- nm - Andie Sep 24, 14:22
    - Seriously, not offering to make some kind of compensation is *unbelievable*. (nm) - musubi Sep 24, 14:07
  - well, they have tomorrow to get a special shipment, right? -- nm - loosilu Sep 24, 14:05
