Face it, weddings can be expensive.
Anytime that you can cut costs without compromising quality you would be wise to take advantage of the opportunity.
There are some things that you can do to reduce your floral expenses but still have beautiful flowers for your wedding.
After all, wedding flowers are the finishing touch to your special day.
Use Flowers that are "In Season"
When you go to the market, fruit is more expensive when it is out of season and less expensive when it is in season. The same goes for flowers.
Try to select your wedding flowers so that they will be in season at the time of your wedding.
Give Your Florist Creative Freedom
You can save some money by allowing your florist to have a little creative freedom.
Give them your color scheme, sometimes some swatches, and let them know the style of wedding you are planning.
If you have any flowers that you absolutely do not want, let them know that too. Then let them go about selecting your wedding flowers for you.
Be honest with your florist and let them know that you are on a tight budget then let them find the best floral deals for you.
Take Advantage of Holidays
Choosing to have your wedding close to Christmas or just after Easter could have quite a coup in saving on your floral bill.
Most churches and chapels are already decorated for the holiday so your budget will be cut substantially.
The floral decorating is already done for you.
Consider having your Wedding Outdoors
Having your wedding outdoors, in a garden can give you the beauty of natural wedding flowers.
A garden full of blooms is a lovely backdrop for your wedding. It is also a very inexpensive way to decorate.
An outdoor wedding has a simple quality and is very beautiful.
There are some special considerations that you must remember for an outdoor wedding, but it can create beautiful, special memories.
Try Rentals
Renting large potted plants or tropical palms can be an option. They will fill large spaces and usually cost less than purchasing a bunch of flowers to fill the same area.
They can give your ceremony style and bring warmth to the area. This may be an option that will help you save some money.
Do it Yourself
Some creative brides are opting to do their wedding flowers themselves. A few roses set against a spray of babies breath and tied with a ribbon makes a lovely bouquet.
Sprinkling some rose petals on the table and around some pillar candles is very simple, yet stunning.
The options are only limited by your imagination.
Silk flowers or dried flowers may also be an option and you can put them in a vase with some colored marbles or pebbles.
When it comes to decorating for your wedding, remember, it is "your wedding" so do what feels right to you.
Select your wedding flowers to reflect your personality and style as well as that of your groom's.
A beautiful wedding does not have to cost a fortune.
