Picking Out The Perfect Wedding Floral Arrangements

By Catherine Perry


Weddings are supposed to be days filled with joy and celebration. In order to make sure this day goes off without a hitch, all the details need to be properly planned and looked at, so as to avoid last minute confusion. Getting the proper wedding floral arrangements can be a bit tricky, but after considering a number of factors, you will be able to come up with the perfect bouquets.

Before you start making other major arrangements, one thing you normally settle on is the color scheme. This will be determined by what you and your spouse wear. The colors and designs of the dresses for you and your bridesmaids, will largely determine which colors of flowers you will get. The design will also determine the complexity of the bouquet.

To get the best results, you need to choose the best professional to do the job. It is advisable to get a recommendation from someone who has used these services before. Ensure you have about three options listed, so that you can compare their services. You should also get someone who you get along with.

One thing they will advise you to do, is to pick flowers that not only go with your choice of colors, but which also suits your personality and personal taste. This will mean looking at your wardrobe, and observing what you normally wear. If you dress in dull colors all the time, a bouquet of bright yellows and reds might throw you off a bit.

Different flowers are available during different seasons, although a few of them like roses and hydrangeas, can be found almost all year round. In this regard, therefore, before you choose the bunch of flowers, you want you need to consider the season where the wedding will fall. After identifying this, your florist will be able to tell you what will be available and you can make your choice.

Considering that these flowers are one highlight of the wedding, make sure to include them in the budget, right up there with the food. This will make sure you allocate them enough money. Once you decide how much you want to spend, talk to the florist in order to see which flowers will be used.

Apart from floral arrangements, you also need other decorations in order to make the venue look nice. This may include candles if the wedding will go till evening, decorative lights and the linens for the table and chairs. If you are lucky, you might find an expert who can provide all these. Make sure to visit the venue beforehand with the florist. This is mainly because the room itself, its lighting and design, can influence the type of arrangements.

After you pick out the specific bouquets, you will need to choose a centerpiece. This can be bunch of flowers, or can even be something unrelated. It should be made to fit in with the theme of the day. For example for an ocean front wedding, you may opt to use nautical rope, or miniature boats as your center pieces. To give the bouquet a special touch, you can customize it by adding something personal. This may be a present like a brooch.
