Tips For Choosing Your Wedding Flowers
When it comes to selecting your wedding decor, there is one area that you don’t want to handle lightly- wedding flowers! Great wedding flowers can really set the tone 
and ambiance for an event. There is one catch though- how do you choose when there are so many wonderful types, colors, arrangements, etc? One way to ensure you make the best decisions on wedding flowers is to hire a great wedding florist. Here, we would like to share our tips for choosing a great florist that is sure to point you in the best direction for choosing your wedding flowers!
Find Inspiration
As with any type of wedding decor, it really helps to gather some inspiration before you dive right into deciding what you want. Take 
some time to look around and browse different avenues for wedding flowers. Obviously, the internet is a great place to look to get some ideas- but look around while you are out and about. Did a pretty bloom catch your eye while you were shopping for your wedding dress? Perhaps a specific color keeps standing out? Take notes or snap a quick photo- that way, when it comes time to sit down with your florist, you will have a collection of different colors and styles you may want.
Ask Questions
Once you have some ideas for the type of wedding flowers you want, you can 
begin searching for the perfect florist. Remember, you don’t have to settle on the first one you talk to. Do some research, check reviews, meet with them and make sure you get a great vibe! This is the person that will be ensuring your wedding flowers look amazing and stay amazing throughout your wedding. When you go to meet with a florist, don’t be afraid to ask questions. Some key aspects you may want to discuss could be:
- Have they done many weddings? You definitely want to make sure you are getting an individual or company that has experience with wedding flowers. Their experience is a great indicator of their expertise in this particular area. Ask for examples of their previous work or samples of what they are able to do.
- Have they worked at your venue before? If they have, great! They will already know the great areas for arrangements and can guide you in the best direction for styles and placement. If not, that’s not a problem either. Just ensure that they might be willing to check out the
location before the wedding date so they can visualize its potential. - How booked are they for the wedding day? This is a useful little tidbit. You want to make sure that they are not going to be too busy to do a good job on your wedding. Just confirm that they have the staff to cover it and that the work will still be quality.
- Budget? Make sure you find out whether or not they will be able to stay within your budget. Wedding flowers can rack up pretty quickly. Figuring out the basics beforehand can be extremely beneficial in the long run. Advise them what you are willing to spend and confirm that it won’t be an issue.
Once you locate a great florist, have confidence in knowing that your wedding flowers are taken care of! And don’t forget, have your team of wedding photographers capture unforgettable photos of your beautiful wedding flowers. That way, you can cherish them forever!
