Three Steps to Planning Your Wedding Flowers
By Gigi Mill
When it comes to Floral arrangements and Decoration for weddings there are numerous
options available. Floral Decorating options are endless and are limited only by the
imagination, even the most outrageous floral decorations can be made to fit practically
any budget provided there is time spent to do proper research regarding the many ideas
that are available out there.
There are no set rules or limitations for wedding flowers. It is whatever the couple or more
precisely the “bride” wants and can afford. Anything goes from renting the silk floral
arrangements to do-it-yourself kind of deals for creative and imaginative brides and
bridesmaids who are there to help the bride anyway. Planning for wedding flowers can be
a lot of fun for bridal party who might come up with innovative ideas that you might not
have thought about. It might also be fun to involve the groom in the process if he is an
imaginative type otherwise forget about him, the most he will care about is to stick to the
budget allocated for this category of your wedding.
Give yourself plenty of time to plan the wedding flowers, at least 6 months prior to the
wedding date. Most brides want the flowers to complement the color scheme of and
overall theme of the wedding particularly the wedding dress for the bride and the wedding
attire for the bridesmaid etc.
Now the question is where to start looking for the perfect floral arrangements for the
wedding? For starters check out the different Bridal magazines which are full of pictures of
bouquets and wedding flower arrangements, that will give you some ideas to set a theme
for your floral decorations.
Secondly and importantly, think about the types of flowers that will be in season at the
time of your wedding. Choosing flowers that are readily available is a sure way to keep
your wedding costs under control and within budget. Out of season flowers are very
expensive to acquire and may not be available in some cases which will pose a hassle
and a problem in many ways.
There are many creative ways to have your bouquets and arrangements do a double
duty. Involve your bridesmaids and helpers in making arrangements if you are craft
oriented to keep the costs down. Another way to keep the costs reasonable is to use
more filler (more greenery) to your floral arrangements.
Thirdly once you have planned and figured out the flower arrangements and bouquets,
shop around for a good florist who has reasonable prices and can turn your thoughts and
ideas into a reality. It is to your advantage to select a florist early on because there is a
limit to how much even the best florist can handcraft and when you have the florist
selected make sure that you go over the contract with a fine-toothed comb before signing
to make sure the number and type of arrangements, including the flowers being used, are
clearly specified along with delivery details. Keep clear records of the deposit amount and
delineate the payment schedule.
As you can see it is lot of fun and work as well but the key is proper planning and not
getting overwhelmed but staying calm and cool.
