Instant expert: Flowers
Flowers are one accessory no wedding should be without. Your ideal wedding day should be reflected in your flowers. Here are some tips to help create the perfect floral accessory:
Be comfortable with the designer you choose
Be sure the person you meet with will be doing the actual work, not passing it off to someone else. Look for updated ideas. Be sure the floral designer understands - and you understand - the look and feel of your day.
Buyer beware
Most brides are on a budget, but don't go on price alone. Most florists are in the same general price range (although some may offer packages or wholesale prices with lower quality or expensive add-ons). Peace of mind goes a lot further than saving $100. Be smart ... you're worth it!
Selection is key
Choose flowers that suit you. Brides are stepping out of the traditional mode of an all-white floral bouquet. Add some color, jazz it up and make it yours. Anything goes! Your designer should be able to lead you down the aisle of floral happiness with whatever you desire.
Add some special meaning
Flowers speak volumes. The groom may not know you picked flowers to reflect your feelings for him, but you will. You may choose one flower of meaning, or many. Whatever the case, flowers will add to your spectacular day of love, happiness, romance and beauty.
