Finding a Wedding Florist

When looking for flowers for your wedding, ask yourself some overall questions – What are my favorite flowers? Are there flowers I intensely dislike for some reason? Then look for pictures of bouquets that you just like the overall look and style of the arrangement of the flowers Are you drawn to soft, full, lush blooms? Are you excited by modern bold colors and line like modern art forms? Do you like different textures and flowers together or do you like monobotanical (all the same flower grouped together) bouquets? It used to be that you had to choose flowers that were “in season” – tulips in spring, roses in summer, chrysanthemums in fall and carnations in winter. But today with flowers being grown in all climates of the world and shipped overnight to use, choices are much more readily available.


Find a florist first of all that understands (or helps you develop) your individual style and secondly has the personality and design skills to make your wedding day beautiful. Your floral designer needs to be someone who you trust to create your personality in your flowers. Set up an appointment to get to know the florist and take along ideas and pictures that you have found, then listen for creative ideas that they have. Give a professional florist an overall look and color combination and then be open to their creativity and artistic style to make your bouquets and décor more than you could ever imagine.

There are no do-overs on your wedding day so make sure you find someone who will make your wedding day – your way. I have had clients ask me what my favorite style is and I tell them that it doesn’t matter what I like. My goal is to understand each bride and groom’s style and create your look. That is why every one of our weddings are truly a “one of a kind event”!
