Once you have finished arranging a wedding officiant Mississauga, priest and other important parts of your wedding, what is next? Planning your wedding is a long process and choosing your wedding flowers is one important and exciting decision you will have to make. Your wedding flowers are what carry your theme through, from fragrance & colour, to mood and style and of course to precious memories in your wedding pictures.

Now your wedding bouquet is simply the finishing touch to your wedding dress and with a well designed bouquet will actually enhance your dress and bring out your beauty and compliment your bridesmaids.

It may seem overwhelming at the start, so below are some helpful tips to make choosing your flowers a much easier one.

• If you speak with your professional florist in the end it will save you time and make you feel a lot more confident, but if you are on budget and cannot afford one, the Internet, bridal magazines and photos from other weddings are a great source of ideas and inspiration.
• First you will want to think about your wedding theme and how you feel flowers will carry through. For example including shells in the bouquet for a Wedding on the beach is a great idea.
• Get a piece of your bridesmaids’ fabric for colour matching of flowers and ribbons.
• If they are in season pick at least one or two types of flowers that you would like to feature. Blooms are a good idea and can be included because of their meaning or they could even hold personal memories to you and the groom.
• A good idea is to work within the seasons. Although a lot of flowers like roses, lilies, Singapore orchids etc are available in all seasons; many other flowers are seasonal so prices can fluctuate depending on which season you decide to get married in.
• It can be extremely helpful if you know your budget so that your florist can know exactly what flowers suit your budget.
• You can definitely be creative with your bridesmaids’ flowers.
• You can also consider designing your own reception table flowers, of course with a team of helpers and champagne! Examples could be a glass bowl with floating rose heads, or a single Singapore orchid in a nice vase. Take note that if you do consider designing your own reception flowers, it is extremely time consuming and could take away from more important things.
