When you are planning for your summer wedding, the flowers are one aspect no one can afford to ignore. Sure a wonderful display of exotic flowers will zap your guests, but there are ways and means to cut down the costs if you are on a budget.
o Use the Seasonal Flavor. Using seasonal flowers can lower your costs significantly, as these are likely to be available in plenty and are thus cheap. In case of a summer wedding, you are helped significantly in your efforts as summer flowers are exceptionally vibrant and colorful.
o Ask Friends To Volunteer. Do not hesitate to ask your friends to pitch in for making the arrangements. You can order the flowers online and get an amateur florist to try out his / her skill.
o Use Single Flowers. You can avoid heavy overheads by cutting down on the total number of flowers you order. Single flowers arrangements Look almost as good as full flower bouquets, but can result in significantly lower costs.
o Make A Single Flower Theme. Instead of putting a wide variety of flowers on display, go for a single or two types of flowers theme. Zeninas, Gladiolas, Roses all stand up significantly on their own to make for an outstanding arrangement. This will enable you to get bulk discounts from online sellers and also greatly reduce your packing and shipping costs.
o Go Native. Beside seasonal summer wedding flowers, try to go for flowers that grow in your area. Imported flowers cost much more. Go for similar looking flowers that would give almost the same effect.
o Look Out For Special Deals. Online florists sometimes come out with great discount offers on wedding flowers that you can not resist. If you are getting a great deal, go ahead and buy the flowers, and hire a local florist for doing the arrangements. You would end up saving a packet overall.
o Concentrate On The Color. Most people notice the color of the flowers rather than the exact variety (leave Orchids out of this – they are in a separate class). So you can go for cheaper varieties that are of the same or similar color as per your plans.
Exercising some or all of the above options will greatly contribute to reducing the cost of your summer wedding flowers and will help you to stick to your budget.
