It is an unwritten law that you cannot get married without
flowers. Flowers are the essence of a beautiful wedding day
celebration. Flowers are a three dimensional element of your
decorating strategy. Because they are beautiful, elegant, and
provide a wonderful scent, flowers satisfy all senses. The
flowers you select should compliment everything else in your
wedding. Its colors should complement not just your dress. The
colors of your flowers work with the colors of the décor of your
reception site and the ceremony location.
Unless you are lucky enough to be a florist, you'll need to hire
one. The florist should be experienced with wedding
arrangements, and you'll be hard pressed to find one that isn't.
Make sure your florist is able to deliver, install, and remove
the arrangements at the end of your event. Even though many
reception halls can recommend a florist to you, you should do
your homework. Ask for references, and be sure to follow up. It
may be tempting to hire a florist without check references, but
it could also be irresponsible.
Your wedding flowers should complement the season, your wedding
dress, and your color scheme. Your wedding flowers should also
complement your attendants' attire, and the style of your
wedding. Before you talk to your florist, prepare a list of
wedding flowers you'll need. It will help focus your
discussions, and help you stay within your wedding budget.
When you plan the flower arrangements with your florist, she
should be able to recommend arrangements based on the size and
location of your wedding. Ask to see photos of previous wedding
arrangements - Don't accept generic photos of flower
arrangements, insist on seeing the work of the florist.-, which
will give you a feel for their creative qualities and what you
can expect to see on your wedding day. It is even better if you
arrive prepared with some pictures and magazine cut outs with
your ideas. You don't have to take the florist's advice on
everything, be part of the decision making process. If you feel
strongly about a certain flower or color, it should worth
fighting for it. It is your wedding, and you are the customer.
You have to feel good about your flower arrangements. Your day
is about you.
