5 Worries of Choosing a Florist
Choosing a florist is such an intimate part of your wedding plans. You definitely want to mesh with your florist. You will choose your florist based on their design style and expertise. You still may have some worries about making the right decision. Here is a list of 5 worries and how to overcome them.
1.Budget: Couples often worry about staying within their budget when selecting wedding flowers. Floral arrangements, bouquets, centerpieces, and other decorations can quickly add up in cost, so couples may stress about finding options that are both beautiful and affordable.
We have a minimum spend of $2000. Some florist have higher minimums. We find that having a minimum spend allows us to work with couples to choose quality flowers in a variety of textures and sizes. Budget is extremely important when it comes to where you want the bulk of your flowers to be. We find that the larger the bridal party, the more your budget goes to personal flowers. Most of our couples like to allocate a chunk of the budget to a focal piece such as an arbor.
2.Matching the Theme or Style: Couples may worry about choosing wedding flowers that complement the overall theme or style of their wedding. Whether it's a rustic, modern, vintage, or traditional theme, they want the flowers to enhance the ambiance and aesthetic they're aiming for.
This is where the experience of doing over 600 weddings comes into play. We are masters at choosing flowers that will fit your theme and color palette.
3.Seasonal Availability: Concerns about seasonal availability can arise, especially if couples have their hearts set on specific flowers that may not be in season during their wedding date. They may worry about finding suitable alternatives or adjusting their floral choices to accommodate seasonal availability.
Once again this is where our expertise will help!! We know what is available and when. We can steer you away from the really expensive out of season flowers and show you options that will fit your budget. We can also let you know if those premium out of season flowers are available if you truly have your heart set on them. Think peonies in October. They can be really expensive, but perhaps to you they are worth it!!
4. Allergies or Sensitivities: Couples may worry about selecting flowers that could trigger allergies or sensitivities among themselves, their wedding party, or guests. They may need to consider hypoallergenic options or work closely with florists to choose blooms that won't cause discomfort.
There are so many options of flowers with low or no pollen. We can work around any flower or plant allergies.
5. Logistics and Delivery: Logistics surrounding the delivery and setup of wedding flowers can be a source of worry for couples. They may stress about ensuring that the flowers arrive on time, in good condition, and are properly arranged according to their preferences. Coordination with the florist and venue staff is crucial to alleviate these concerns.
