What About the Flowers

You've GOT this! You have everything figured out for the perfect wedding – the dress, the bridesmaids' gowns, the venue, the music, even the food – everything! Then, it hits you, BOOM! What about the flowers?!? You had not even thought about the flowers!

Don't sweat it! Just ask yourself a few simple questions and go from there. Will your wedding take place in the summer, autumn, winter, or spring? Do you prefer traditional wedding flowers NJ or, maybe you are looking for something different and a little more exotic? What are your wedding colors? Your answers to these questions will help you start narrowing down your choices.

For example, different flowers are more available during different seasons of the year. Roses and carnations are at their most beautiful in the summer whereas poinsettias and chrysanthemums tend to be winter flowers – sunflowers abound in late summer and autumn while daffodils and crocus are the earliest blooms of the spring. And more types of flowers are always available in the summer. This information can help you plan for the cost of your flowers as well as availability. Chances are, if you want off-season flowers or more exotic varieties, it will cost you more and, it will be harder to find enough of them for your purposes. No matter what season you are dealing with, a florist NJ can help you figure it out!

If you are looking for something more traditional, roses and baby's breath are always popular and usually available, no matter the season. Carnations are a favorite choice also. Both roses and carnations come in a vast array of colors so they can be easily matched to most wedding colors. And, because roses, carnations, and baby's breath are very common, they are always available. If you are looking for something different and exciting, you might consider birds of paradise with their bright, bold, and big blooms. Or, you might consider orchids or lilies – these are available in many colors as well and, they will add a touch of exotic elegance to any bridal bouquet!

Your wedding colors can help you decide what types of flowers will work best for your wedding. Some flowers are only available in limited colors – marigolds and sunflowers, for example, are only available in orange, red and yellow. On the other hand, roses, carnations, and orchids are available in just about any color you could wish for - traditional colors like white, pink and red to more exotic colors like purple, blue, and even black.

If you want to get really creative, you can opt for a combination of traditional and exotic blooms for your wedding flowers! Maybe try orange tiger lilies as a center piece surrounded by yellow marigolds or black roses. Or you can go for orange and purple birds of paradise with yellow carnation accents. The choices are endless and, your flower delivery NJ can help you decide what will work best and how available your choices are.
