The Flowers

There are so many choices of flowers. From blush pinks to dramatic reds and darker shades – it’s all in what you want. You can choose real flowers and silk flowers.

Suggestion – have the real flowers and also have another bouquet made up in silk to reflect your chosen colors of your wedding flowers and this arrangement will outlast the real flowers for many years to come. I have seen many weddings done in simple arrangements with one or two flowers and other very large dramatic bouquets in other weddings.

Both types of arrangements are equally beautiful – there again, consider the look you want to create..

Flowers are a central component of your wedding.

They set the atmosphere and are often a focal point as they add beauty and fragrance to any occasion including engagement parties, bridal showers, rehearsal meals and of course weddings.
 

Before starting your search for your wedding florist - floral designer, you need to

• choose the time of year for your wedding

• choose the time of day for your wedding

• choose your wedding theme and colors

• decide if your wedding will be casual or formal

• secured both your ceremony and reception sites

• Shop for your flower and decorations specialists as early as possible and give them a general idea of what you want.

Whether yours is a simple at home wedding, a lavish black tie affair or any wedding style in between, you need flowers that are arranged in good taste and coordinate well with all other components of both marriage ceremony and wedding reception.

Check both your ceremony and reception sites to find out if flowers are included in their wedding package, if they have specific in house floral specialists and decorators they work with, and what their policies regarding flowers and wedding decorations are.

Arrange with the management of those that allow you to choose a professional, a specific time slot for the flowers and decorations to be placed.
Request that the flowers and decoration professionals confirm a few days before your wedding.

Find out if yours is the only wedding on the date you chose. If not, you may be able to save by coordinating flower arrangements with the preceding or following wedding party and splitting the costs.

Other money saving ideas include:

• using your ceremony flowers and decorations at the reception

• Asking the bridesmaids to place their bouquets as centerpieces (they can not carry them throughout the reception and they will take them home anyway)

• choosing seasonal flowers that are common and plentiful in Florida

• decorating with purchased or rented potted plants, shrubs and trees

As you prepare to choose a florist or a floral arrangement coordinator you must define what you want. Consider the choices available to complement your wedding within your flowers budget.     Read More
