Choosing a Florist for a Wedding

Choosing a Florist for your Wedding Flowers >>

Making your big day a success and enjoying it can be difficult. It's hard to know exactly where to start and planning is the most important stage. We wrote this quick guide on how to a wedding florist can make planning your wedding flowers that little bit simpler.

Wedding flowers are another part of your perfect day that need to be planned so that they look stunning, as well as you both will on the day. A bit of research (wedding magazines, specialist websites etc) before you decide on which wedding florist to choose will help you know the type of wedding flowers you want.

Wedding flowers can be expensive depending on the theme you want to select so knowing exactly how to go about selecting your wedding florist is important – and it's equally important to know your budget before you start or it can be too easy to over spend.

Set a budget and spend that, or less. After you find a wedding florist you will know what you can expect to be quoted so if you need to adjust your budget you can do it accordingly.

A wedding florist will require you to book around six months in advance of your big day so ensure you book an appointment to meet the wedding florist well in advance of your set date, though you will want to get together around two months prior to your big day to finalise ideas and ensure they can source the exact wedding flowers you have requested. They may suggest alternatives at this stage that don't compromise on the design of your chosen bouquet and table displays.

To find a florist, select perhaps two or three and visit them within a few days of each other so that any notes you take are remembered clearly, this way you can compare the wedding florist with others without forgetting important bits of your conversation.

Deciding on wedding flowers is made a little simpler by ensuring that you yourself know how the bride will look, the style the bridesmaids will wear and what the venue looks like – you can decide then on traditional, classic or contemporary. Your wedding florist will provide the wedding flowers for the bouquets, corsage's, buttonholes, church decorations and day and evening venue arrangements.
