Step #1 Set Your Budget
We always need a budget to work within. Without a budget it is easy to buy whatever your eyes see with no consequences. Many vendors will try to get you to buy into one of their expensive packages. Typically, 8% of your budget would go into flowers. It can be less or more depending on how important they are to you. Set your budget, and stick to it.
Step #2 Search For An Affordable Florist
The common sense way of doing this is to use a florist a friend or family member recommends. However, they may not always get you what you want at a price you can afford. You really should visit more then one florist and negotiate for the best deal.
Step #3 Consider The Style, Theme, And Colors
This step is pretty hard. You have to visualize the sort of arrangements you want. Things like style, colors, the theme of your wedding, the location of your wedding, and even the season your wedding is taking place in. Think about this one for awhile. Look at pictures for ideas and see what others have done. But remember it all needs to fit within your budget.
Step #4 Think About How You Will Save Money
Once you figure out what you want you need to know how you can get it. This usually means you will need to compromise in order to have the type of arrangements you want at a price that you can afford. Will you have some silk flowers? Will you do some of the arrangements yourself? Will you buy flowers that are in season?
Step #5 Finalize The Details
You have to everything in writing with your florist. Make sure goes into detail what you are getting at that price. Will they transport the flowers? Will they setup the flowers? Is there extra charges for those things? Make all those little details are in the open. If they aren’t you may get a surprise when you get the bill.
