The touch of a good floral designer is unmistakable and will be reflected in the feel of the ceremony or reception, as well as in the wedding photographs. But all the beauty in the intricate details does not happen at the snap of your fingers. It takes a lot of communication between the bride and the florist with at least a few months of preparation before the wedding. Here are some fundamental information that you should share with your florist:-
Location
Discuss with your florist the location or locations of your wedding. Your florist may be familiar with the place, ambience or climate so she can advise on technical issues. The location of your wedding day also influence the style or design of your floral arrangements.
Theme and Colour
Bring samples of your gown and your bridesmaids’ dresses, or a colour chart of your wedding. This way, your florist can help you decide on style, the type of flowers to use and how to design the arrangements to complement your wedding theme.
Your style and body frame
Your florist will be able to tell, after meeting with you, what types of flowers and colours suit your personality, style and frame. For example, if you are petite bride, your florist will recommend a delicate bunch tied together instead of a huge or elaborate arrangement which may overwhelm you. A professional will be able to recommend the right colour scheme for your bouquet to complement your skin tone. For instance, an all-white bouquet may be too pale for a fair-skinned bride.
Presentation
Visit wedding venue with your florist and see what you can do to create a stunning set up. You may like to take note of existing furniture or interior design of the venue, such as pillars, chandeliers, wooden beams in the ceiling, etc.
