Consider These Factors When Choosing Wedding Flowers

So your big day is around the corner, and you have so much to do. Among all other things to decide, you’ll be choosing wedding flowers. There’s no wedding without flowers, and choosing your flowers is one of the exciting parts of wedding planning. However, it’s not easy to pick wedding flowers as there are a lot of choices!

Whether you are picking the flowers because they are sentimental to you or photos on Pinterest and Instagram have inspired you, you will have to consider these factors to make the most of your wedding flower purchase.

Budget

A part of your wedding budget goes to the floral decor. It might be tempting to adorn your venue with exotic flowers and foliage that you came across on wedding magazines and Instagram posts. Flower walls, lush designs suspended from the ceiling, beautifully designed chuppas… these will make your wedding memorable. Just be sure to get reasonable quotes on these luxurious items.

The price of wedding flowers might vary from one florist London Ontario to another. So, it’s a good idea to do some research, visit several flower shops London Ontario and get quotes to narrow down your choice. Check references for the florist to be sure they can successfully execute your vision.

Speak To the Florist

There’s no better person to guide you on choosing wedding flowers London Ontario than a florist. Speak to your florist, and they will answer all of your queries, give you valuable insights on flowers that are expensive, cheaper, seasonal, and more importantly, help you choose the best floral designs to decorate your ceremony and reception. Of course, it’s your big day, and you can choose according to your personal preferences. But, it’s a good idea to communicate your needs with the florist to make the most of your wedding flowers.

Venue and Wedding Style

The wedding venue and style helps to determine the variety and quantity of flowers that you will need. Simple and sophisticated arrangements would be a perfect choice for a city wedding. However, if it’s a garden wedding, locally grown blossoms might be more suitable for the theme. All of these things should be considered when deciding on your wedding flowers.

Wedding Attire

When choosing flowers for your big day, consider the colour scheme of your wedding attire. The bride’s bouquet is the most important. You’ll be looking at the photos for years to come! While white flowers might not be suitable for a white dress, accent flowers in the tones of the attendants’ attire will pair well. If your wedding dress is not a traditional one, ask your florist for suggestions. Cascading bouquets are making a comeback – ask about this lush look!
