How to Pick the Perfect Wedding Flowers

When it comes to wedding planning, flowers are an important part of your big day. Here are some tips to ensure you have the perfect flowers for your special day.

Pick a Flower with Meaning 

Every flower has a specific trait or meaning that goes along with it. Your wedding can be especially symbolic if you choose a red tulip which signifies love and passion, or a lily of the valley represents happiness and purity.

Think About your Venue 

Let your venue guide your wedding flower decisions. You want to make sure that the flowers compliment the backdrop. For example, use less flowers for an outdoor garden wedding and more flowers for an indoor ceremony.

Budget out your Flowers

Flowers can be a huge part of your wedding budget. Most wedding planners will dedicate 10% of the total budget to flowers. If you are looking for a less expensive flower budget, remember that many flowers have look alikes and less expensive alternatives.

Think About the Season

The season of your wedding can greatly affect your flower choices! Some flowers are not available in certain seasons, or if they are available, they are very expensive. Really consider the time of the year of your wedding when deciding on what flowers you want!
