Being their own wedding florist is an option that many couples consider in order to keep costs down. Flower arrangements can be prepared in advance of the big day and many couples enjoy the creativity, sharing of ideas and time together that an exercise like this brings. It is also a great talking point for the day! If you choose this root (pardon the pun!) here are some considerations to get you started. Choose in-season flowers; if the flowers are in abundance they will be considerably cheaper. Select flowers that will remain fresh and maintain their colour and beauty even out of water for a long time. Buy flowers wholesale. Florists or flower markets are usually a good source. Florists will give you lots of advice on which flowers to use and arrangement ideas even if you don’t end up hiring them. Take advantage of it and get several opinions!

If you do decide to hire someone, your florist needs to be a creative person who is the source of many ideas and has the ability to capture your personal taste within their flower arranging. It is essential before hiring anyone to see examples of their previous work and preferably be able to speak to a previous client to gauge their satisfaction. You may decide to hire someone to arrange part of the overall display only. The wedding bouquet is obviously a key floral focal point, as are any flowers used on tables during the wedding breakfast. Guests will more likely notice these areas so perhaps a professional touch here, whilst flowers in the church, outside or in the reception room will usually be background arrangements. All the attention here will after all be on the happy couple! Search for wedding florists now in our directory to find your perfect wedding florist.
