Buying Wedding Flowers In Advance

By Michael Lewis

Planning a wedding can be very stressful with 101 things to remember and all need to be perfect for the special day that the bride walks down the aisle, in order to make it an enjoyable and memorable occasion.

Once you have figured out where you will hold the event, and selected the wedding dress and wedding cake, you still have to find the perfect wedding flowers. It used to be that a bride just had her mothers gardener pick the best flowers from the yard gardens and bring them in right before the wedding, but those days are a thing of the past. Choosing the right live flowers for the wedding ceremony may not leave you much to choose from, depending on what season it is and where the wedding will be held. There are silk or velvet flowers that can be pretty, no matter what time of year.

Taste, budget, and style are important factors when it comes to choosing wedding flowers. Wedding theme colors have to be taken into consideration, as well. The number of floral arrangements needed should be determined before proceeding to shop for your wedding flowers.

Wedding flowers that are stress free involve a few helpful tips to follow, before you begin to purchase them.

Professional florists can make the floral arrangements and some brides choose to make the arrangements by themselves. You should purchase some practice flowers if the floral arrangements are being made by family or friends. Wedding floral arrangements, such as these stress-free wedding flowers, may take some practice before the bride is satisfied with the finished product. You can find plenty of places, such as craft stores or on the Internet that sells everything you need to do the job right, including accessories and guides.

Important points to consider when planning stress-free wedding flowers include planning arrangements that are considered traditional and standard decorations such as

* Setting up pew markers or front row floral arrangements generally at the end of the rows. * Floral arrangements on the altar * Centerpieces for the reception table and wedding gift table. * Flowers for the maid of honor and bouquet for the bride. * Floral arrangements on the buffet * Bride's tossing bouquet and bridesmaid's bridal bouquets * Boutonnieres for the best man and the Groom * Parents of the bride and the groom would also need boutonnieres and corsages * Floral arrangements for the bars and stages or at any other points in the reception hall.

Apart from these stress free wedding flower arrangements, there are also certain important aspects to be considered, so that there are no last minute problems in the wedding arrangements.

* In case you are employing the services of a florist, you need to give him all the information and the time frame required to prevent last minute goof ups. * Ensure that your florist has all the contact information for the families and the bride and the groom to clarify any doubts. * Details of all the floral arrangements should be completely documented. * Avoid last minute headaches by discussing and confirming all the details like the venue and the time of delivery, schedule of the payment and the complete costs well before time * A detailed agreement signed by both the parties will guarantee stress free wedding flowers arrangements. - 30299
