Flowers are the most important part of the wedding so be choosy when picking out your florist. In my book, word of mouth is the best way to find a great florist. Ask your girlfriends and people you trust who they used for their wedding. Start your search at least 6 months (or earlier if possible) before your wedding, but have your florist under contract 4 months ahead. When choosing your wedding florist make sure you have your reception site picked out, that way you will know how many arrangements you need and what colors might clash with the décor. Consider what kind of flowers you like, but remember all flowers are not available all year, to save cost choose flowers that will be in season for your wedding day.
It’s VERY important to be upfront with your florist when it comes to your budget BUT be realistic. You can’t have a $200 bouquet if you floral budget is $500. Choose flowers that can be used throughout your wedding, using too many different flowers will bring the cost up dramatically.
It is important to know what you will be paying the florist before you employ them. Are there any hidden or set-up costs? Is there a delivery charge? Make sure you get a contract in writing!! It doesn’t matter how good the florist is, or how much they like you, if they don’t put it in writing, NO DEAL!!
