Hey friends!! Iâm glad youâre here! Things are just getting started and weâre going to have all kinds of fun making flowers! đ
FIRST do they LISTEN???
Every florist has their own personal style the way people have their own clothing style. A GOOD florist will put themselves in your shoes and try to understand what you envision. Other florists will push a little harder to do what they personally want to do. Recommendations can be good but are they set in their ways or flexible and accommodating?
Are they ORGANIZED???
Creative people are NOT always organized people so look for someone who is on time, takes good notes (because memories arenât perfect!) and who keeps a pretty tidy space. If they are running late to a meeting the sad truth is they might be running late on your big day too!
FLOWER NAMES
A big clue about how experienced someone is how many flower names they know. Ask questions like âwhat flower is in this photo?â and youâll easily get an idea of how long theyâve been in the industry. Listen for less commonly known ones like clematis, protea or larkspur.
Are they up front about PRICES?
Florists who have been doing it for a while know based on a photo roughly how much something will cost. While there is a lot of room to maneuver within the budget (like swapping out more expensive flowers for less expensive ones), if they completely shy away from mentioning ANY kind of pricing during a meeting then be cautious. Make sure you get a thorough quote so there arenât any hidden fees you werenât expecting like a service fee.
Lastly pick someone who is FUN!! Flowers are amazing and you should have a fantastic time getting excited about how your wedding day will look!!
