Do you already know? THAT IS SO FAB, please just pop up to my bio and schedule a consult to figure out if I can make them for you!
Or…maybe you don’t so much know and feel pretty overwhelmed?
Please do NOT fret—I NEVER mind figuring it out with you. In fact, I really enjoy getting to know you and finding some good floral drama together!
That said, if you’re trying to think about it ahead of time, here are a few tips:
1) Before you hit Pinterest, quiz yourself about the following things:
- What are my favorite colors and styles to wear and to decorate my spaces with? (Hint: those may be an excellent starting point for your wedding decor.)
- But also: Do I want my wedding to feel comfortable and familiar to my favorite styles or am I looking to surprise and delight with something different?
2) Then when you do start searching for images, save a BUNCH that you like and then go back and answer THESE questions about your favorites :
- Is there a consistent color or colors showing up?
- Am I seeing a lot of smooth flowers or a lot of textured ruffly ones? Or just a lot of different kinds of flowers?
- Is there a certain shape of bridal bouquet that keeps coming up? (Common ones include: round and tight, round and flowing, cascading, abstract.)
- Is there a particular flower that you see a lot? It’s TOTALLY fine if there isn’t, but it’s a good thing to ask your florist about if you have a particular love.
3) Scroll through the Instagram and webpages of florists you’re considering and ask yourself if you like all or many of the things you see. Most of us can work in a LOT of different styles (I LOVE to do so), but your best fit will be someone whose posts ALL make you say, “ooh, yes please!” You’re not necessarily looking to see that they’ve already done something similar to what you see on Pinterest, but just that you enjoy a lot of their work.
4) Last but definitely not least, reach out and schedule a consultation call! The link for a consultation with me is in my bio!
