The season – keeping to seasonal flowers will keep the cost down. Choosing flowers that are not in season means they will need to be imported.
Budget – most brides don’t have a have idea of the cost of flowers but decide on a ballpark figure before meeting with the florist and then ask the florist for a detailed quote so that you can make the necessary adjustments. A big expense can be for when there are many bridesmaids – consider letting them carry a single flower rather than a bouquet to minimise costs.
The style of your venue and dress – take photos of your dress and the venue so that the choice of flowers blends well with surroundings and the clothing. Capture every important detail of your wedding and preserve it by compiling it into a photobook. Printed Memories has everything you need to help you create one perfect photo book of your wedding.
Trends – At the moment a very natural look is trending. Bouquets and table arrangements are leafy, woody, natural and include fynbos, proteas and soft flowers. Wedding couples are choosing eco-friendly weddings with wild, woodland-inspired bouquets with lush ferns, greens bound loosely, and often more horizontal in shape rather than round.
