Do’s

Be realistic about your budget

You must have seen pictures or been to weddings with roses, peonies, and garlands draped everywhere, the flower-strewn gorgeous wedding that look entirely out of a fairy tale. Well, that is because that much was spent to create that look, getting that kind of arrangements an take up all your wedding budget.

Don’ts

Go for out of the season blooms

One of the fastest ways to blow through your budget is not aware of whats in season. These days with the flower delivery services you can get any flower all year round. But they can cost you a small fortune if you are decorating a wedding, so make it a point to get the flowers that are in season, or have a flexible budget if you are eyes are set on that one flower which is out of season.

Try to DIY the flowers

No matter how much you love doing flower for other people’s wedding, or if you have a tiny budget and think you can save by DIY. It’s not worth the pressure and tension the task brings along with it. This is your wedding, and you already have a lot of things to take care of, so try not to add the flowers to that list.

Decide on a look just because it is photogenic

Flowers are a very important part of the wedding, and you need to be smart about it, don't choose a decoration simply because you think it will look good in the photos. Focus on what you like and what is in the budget, and weddings are about reflecting the bride and grooms taste so make it your own.

There are inspirations everywhere you look. Find the decoration that you like and remember to follow these do’s and don’ts in order to make the most out of your buck. Another great way to decide on what you like is actually seeing and feeling the different flowers physically if you are short on time then you can have then ordered to you with same-day delivery services and have a look that way.
