FLORAL TIPS


Tip #1

When hiring your florist, make sure you know who is actually going to be making your arrangements and bouquets. You want the same florist working with you from consultation to delivery.


Tip #2

Have your flowers do double duty. For example, you can use your bouquets as arrangements on the head table. Or you can have your pew decor transferred to the reception to be used as centerpieces.


Tip #3

Utilize fresh fruit, herbs or vegetables in your bouquets and arrangements. These unusual items add a unique touch - and sometimes smell - to your wedding day.


Tip #4

Keep the flowers the same throughout your entire wedding. If you are using roses, hydrangea and orchids in your personal flowers make sure to use them in your centerpieces too. Buying in bulk lets your designer save you money.


Tip #5

Try to incorporate a specific flower or color your mother or grandmother used in her bouquet on her wedding day. This will not only fulfill the “something borrowed” item but also adds a personal touch to your bouquet.
