    I want to propose to my girlfriend with the aid of a floral arrangement.Eg:''will you marry me?'' decorated in a floral arrangement etc.
    Where in Dublin could I seek help doing this?
    Any well known Florists which I should visit?
    Thanks in advance.

    I think MAD Flowers might be your best bet but I'm sure smaller local florists might be able to give you a price idea.

    According to who? you? it wouldn't be my choice either, but I wouldn't criticise anyone else's preferred way of proposing.

    Any major florist worth their salt should aid you in your endeavour, let the Golden Pages be your friend. Pricey business though and expect it to start between €30 - €50 a letter.

    Will You Marry Me _________? could potentially set you back €700...unless you cut it down to Marry Me? ..... and hopefully your girlfriend has short name like Jen and not PatriciaMaryGeraldine :D

    Best of luck, let us know the outcome.

    Well obviously you'll specify for it not to look like funeral arrangement usually they use certain flowers and use the foam stands.

    I wonder could you get smaller bouches made of each letter and get them put together and hand her a massive bouche that says Will you marry me? And it would be too big to look at holding it. I wouldn't spend 700 euro on it, I thought 200 ish and spend the rest of her? :p well you only get one proposal so I don't know its up to you and maybe I'm being naive as I do imagine florists are pricey. Just drop into a place with a sketch, and theyll show you what they have then when you know if will take X amount of flowers etc.you can call up other places and find out the prices.

    It's not a question of whether you're entitled to your opinion or not - of course you are - it's about when one decides wheter it's appropriate or not to express that held opinion.

    He didn't ask for opinions, or feedback as to what people felt about it - he wanted help, and you took it upon yourself to mock his idea. well done you.
