That's tough then for sure. Hmmmm.
Did you choose your puppy based on a temperament test? If not, and assuming all the puppies aren't spoken for, maybe you could give it another few weeks before making your final decision.
I agree that 30 - 35 lbs is a fantastic (and unfortunately rare) size.
I do recall seeing someone around here when I first joined, who mentioned their poodle (Cammy, I think?) finished at about 35 lbs. I remember because I was envious!
Wish I could remember their user name.... Maybe they're still popping in here sometimes and might see this.
Good luck! And congrats on your new poodle.

My Iris was 37 lbs. I got her at 9 weeks and she was 10 lbs. Her brother was the exact same size. I did not keep a growth chart on her, however both she and her brother were the exact same height, 21" and weight 37 lbs for 14 yrs. Itt was a great size. When I got Poppy I was told to guestimate her adult size by taking her 16 week weight and double it. That should be about the adult size give or take 10%. Poppy was 22 lbs at 16 weeks and finished at 23" and 45 lbs. I have attached Poppy's growth chart.

it wasn’t on temperament, we did drive out a few hours to meet the breeder and make our pick as we had second pick for the males. We went off of feel I guess and colouring. There is 10 in the litter and 4 including us spoken for but that is what I was thinking, although I feel attached to him already as weird as it sounds so it would be hard to make the switch now.That's tough then for sure. Hmmmm.

It wasn't a requirement but they did let people with deposits make their picks after 3 weeks if they chose too. Temperments on both parents are amazing which was a big part in it but I get that pups can be different, we could still hold off or switch picks but I think we will stick with him. Unless he is a mammoth at 8 weeks
I totally get it. And if you're already feeling that bonded, you'll love him at whatever size.
Hi, that'll be peppersb and her Cammie.
Here's a link to a thread on spoo weight, including Cammie's
Standard Poodle growth chart?
Is there a growth chart for spoo puppies? I weighed Rizal today (very approximately by carrying him then standing on our bathroom scale) and I think he is 17 pounds already. He is 11 weeks and 2 days. We'll get his exact weight tomorrow at the vet's but I'm just curious.

Since the poodle varieties are defined by size rather than weight, here's another link to a growth chart by variety, age, and height. We all know how hard it is to get a height on a wiggly puppy
. 
Cammy is Cleo's grandma! Cleo's sire, Sam (Cammy's son) is way bigger than Cammy, though, and Cleo is pretty tall at one year old and weighs 49lbs. New Destiny is our breeder, and we are very happy! I hope that helps.That's tough then for sure. Hmmmm.
