Any issues with injecting data into a django form after creating an instance?

Question

I have a django form CreateQuoteRequestForm and I wanted to populate a list of items from a query set. So I created a list and then assigned as seen below. The form and select box work well. Are there any caveats or issues with assigning data to a form in this manner?

   quoteform = CreateQuoteRequestForm()
   quoteform.fields.get('name').choices=event_list

It doesn't feel quite Djangonic. Instead of futzing with the fields after the fact, pass a keyword argument to the constructor, and in the initializer set the field choices and remove the keyword argument from the dictionary.
