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.
After this stage you can start looking for a florist. If you do not have someone already picked out, you will need references to find someone good. This can be sourced from your wedding planner, or from friends or relatives who have gotten married before you. After you identify a number of professionals, you can peek at their website to see some of their work, then book an appointment to determine who you will choose.
The bouquet you chose should be able to reflect who you are. This means that you do not need to get a large bouquet, if you do not want one. The best way to settle on the right arrangement, is by telling the florist about yourself and your spouse. This way they can help you choose the right blooms, arranged in the right way.
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.
The price for the floral arrangements should be included in the budget itself, although it should not take up too much money. If you do not include it, you will end up viewing it as an added expense and may end up with arrangements, which do not really make you happy. When talking to your florist, you can get quotations for different arrangements before you settle on one.
It would be wise to ask the florist if they provide other decorations, like the table linens and candles. If they do, you might find that getting all these services from one person, will earn you a discount. You are also assured that the colors will blend, because they already know the details of the colour scheme.
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.
