Wedding Flowers Tips for viewing and More !

Wedding Flowers

They can make the wedding sparkle, but can also cost a fair bit of money! The best way to save money on your wedding flowers is to buy them in bulk and arrange them yourself. If the idea of entrusting your floral design to your own inexperienced hands scares you, here are a few suggests that may help you save money without the worry !

Silk Flowers
silk flowers can make beautiful wedding bouquets, and may also be cheaper then real flowers, especially if you want flowers that are out of season. But the biggest bonus is that you can arrange and rearrange them in advance, and you have enough time to work at it until it is perfect !

Find a unprofessional professional !
Do you or your fiance have a friend or family member with floral experience? Ask around! You may find that someone you know, knows someone who is a retired wedding florist! A retired wedding florist will often offer their services at a much lower cost, and if they are friends or family, they may be willing to do it for free !

Take a class !
Many local colleges and art centers offer flower arranging  evening classes to help you learn the basics of arranging wedding flowers for yourself ! Local craft stores will often offer similar classes as well !

Search Online
many craft stores have websites with craft projects and ideas, including wedding arrangements!

If none of those ideas are particularly calming, and you would prefer to have a professional florist do your wedding flowers, there are still ways that you can save money !

Here are a few steps you can take to ensure you get the best wedding flowers for your money :

1. Pick wedding flowers that are in season, they are automatically cheaper then out of season flowers. For example, tulips for a spring wedding would be much less expensive then tulips in December. If you are unsure what flowers are inseason, ask your wedding florist for advice.

2. Pick a bouquet that uses more affordable flowers (carnations, for example) accented with a few exotic wedding flowers for a beautiful finish! When looking through my mother's wedding photos, I found a stunning photo of her bouquet, which was a cascading bouquet of white carnations with one goregous stargazer lily in front ! It was goregous, and much more affordable then it woudl have been if she had used roses !

3. Shop around, get quotes from all the shops in your area, and make sure they know you are going to be getting quotes from other shops as well.

4. Look into the cost of silk flowers - especially if you want wedding flowers that are out of season. Many retailers, both online and locally, carry exquisite silk flower designs that are fabulous in appearance and in price! Ask around and find out if there is a local craftsperson who does arrangements from their home.

You may choose to save money by arranging you wedding flowers yourself, or you may choose to hire someone to do it for you. Either way, a little planning and research can save you a lot of money !
