When deciding on flowers for your wedding what you don't do is just as important as what you do. With all of the intricacies involved, picking your wedding flowers can be helped greatly by hiring a wedding planner.
1) Not Trusting the Florist
Choosing the right florist for your wedding can take some time, but once you do choose your florist you should trust them. Explain your entire vision, all of your ideas, your like and dislikes, then trust in the florist to make that vision come to life.
2) Refusing to Compromise
You might have one perfect flower in mind for your bouquet or centerpieces, but that particular flower might not be available year-round. By being flexible and giving your florist some room to make suggestions, you may end up with a better finished product than you imagined.
3) Ruling Out Expensive Flowers
Ruling out expensive flowers from the on-set of process may hinder the over all look and feel of your arrangements. Give your florist your budget and ask them to work within it. You may find out that you can get a pricier flower than you expected.
4) Using a Single Color
Traditionally many brides match their arrangements to their bridesmaid's dresses, choosing to ignore many other colors to focus on the one main theme. Flowers are the perfect place to add in an accent color to offset your main theme.
5) Choosing Highly Fragrant Flowers
While gardenias, lilac, or hyacinths might be your favorite flowers, adding an extremely fragrant bud to your centerpieces can be a bad idea. Highly scented flowers can aggravate allergies, cause headaches, and even make food less appealing. If your heart is set on a fragrant flower it is best to isolate these to your bouquet so that guests with allergies won't be affected.
6) Not Caring for the Flowers
Every flower has different needs, and a different lifespan after being arranged. Improper care of your flowers prior to the ceremony can be a recipe for disaster. Talk to your florist about the care your flowers will need after you receive them to avoid any potential issues.
7) Doing Too Much Yourself
Doing your arrangements yourself can seem like a good idea initially, however it often becomes more trouble than it's worth. Many brides try to undertake the massive project of doing all of the wedding flowers themselves, which can end up being even more expensive in the end than having a professional taking care of everything.
8) Ordering the Flowers Too Late
Waiting until the last minute to order your wedding flowers can add unnecessary complication to the process. It's nearly impossible to get flowers within a few weeks, most florists will suggest a minimum of six weeks between the time the order is placed and the wedding date.
9) Choosing an Over-sized Bouquet
While large bouquets can be beautiful and impressive, they may be lacking in practicality. When considering an over-sized bouquet, keep in mind the weight and how long you will be carrying it. Large bouquets can also off-set the overall look of your dress as well. Thinking about size, comfort, and aesthetics of the overall look should be your main concerns when deciding on your bouquet.
10) Forgetting to Budget for Flowers
Your flower budget should be part of the plan from the beginning. Not factoring the flowers into the overall budget can be a huge set-back to the ceremony. Flowers can make up a substantial part of your overall budget, meaning that not taking them into consideration can significantly increase the cost of your wedding.
With hundreds of individual options, and thousands of combinations, wedding flowers can be a daunting part of your planning. By doing your research and making sure to do the right things and avoid the wrong things, you should be able to get the perfect flowers for your perfect wedding.
