Guide to choosing wedding flowers:
Budget - Picking your budget and talking to your florist about your budget and what floral pieces are most important to you for your wedding day
Inspiration - Deciding on your style and colours and utilising things like Pinterest boards to get a look and feel for what you want
Finding your wedding florist - You should feel confident in your chosen florist that they can deliver what you want for your wedding, and pick flowers that ensure you get the most of your budget
Style - Your florist should be able to look at images of your venue in order to get the look, feel and style of the place and spot any areas that might need an extra touch.
Seasonality & availability - If you give your florist a colour scheme and style references, but let them pick flower varieties freely, they will be able to buy flowers that are in season and will therefore be cheaper and of better quality than other varieties.
