Floral Tips

To make your wedding ceremony and reception come alive with beauty, here are some helpful hints about how to choose your wedding flowers with your florist:

The Flowers

• Bring sample pictures that you have found in magazines, online, etc. of styles, flowers, and ideas that you like.
• Choose flowers that are in season to keep the cost down.
• Pick a color scheme.
• Bring swatches of all the bridal party's dresses (you can cut a piece of material off the hem).
• Bring a picture of your bridal gown.

The Logistics

• Ask your florist for photos of weddings they have done as well as examples of their work.
• Make sure your florist is available on your wedding date.
• Get an estimate in writing.
• Make sure all the charges are itemized (some florists charge extra for delivery, set up, and break down).
• When you are ready to hire a florist, get a contract that spells out the details of the agreement.
• If you pay a deposit, get a written receipt.
