The first step in choosing a florist is to make an appointment to discuss ideas and to look at the florist’s work. the experienced florist usually has limitless ideas and should be able to work within any couple’s budget.
A first consultation with a florist can often last one to two hours, so it is important to call ahead for an appointment and to allow plenty of time. since the style of the gown and formality of the wedding will play an important role in choosing coordinating flowers and designs, many florists ask for fabric swatches and photographs of the bridal gown and bridesmaid’s dresses.
Come with open minds, for the florist will surely have a bountiful bouquet of fresh ideas guaranteed to make your wedding day unique.
Remember to discuss your requirements for the ceremony, wedding party, mother’s corsages and boutonnieres. There will be centrepieces for the head and guest’s tables and you may want to place flowers on the wedding cake and/or dessert table.
