Choosing Your Florist

Now choosing a florist can be a little tricky. He or she may make claims and promise the world to you, but you should be a little careful. Ask the florist to show you his portfolio and based on the pictures, you can make your decision. Ask your friends and relatives for suggestions and take their advice. Choose your florist with care as you cannot ask for a rehearsal of your decorations and you will have to stick to the decoration no matter what. If you are going for a wedding planner, then you need not worry about looking for the florist as your planner will do all the running around for you.

Choose the Flowers in Bloom

Go for flowers which are in season. Never go for the exotic varieties as they can burn a huge hole in your pocket. Lilies and jasmine particularly, look really pretty in wedding decorations. So keep your eyes open, choose a wonderful combination and your wedding venue will definitely look splendid. Also, dont go for flowers that wilt or dry easily. Request your florist to spritz the flowers with some water before the wedding. This will keep the flowers fresh, bright and cheery throughout the wedding.

Choose Your Color with Care

Indian weddings are a riot of colors and flowers just further enhance their beauty. But that does not mean you can choose random color combinations. It would be foolhardy to combine roses with marigolds or an orchid with sunflowers. So ask your florist for his inputs. Go for vivacious and vibrant colors which will brighten up your Indian wedding decor. You can also hold a trial. Arrange a few flowers and try to visualize how good or how bad it will look. Make your decision after evaluating all the sample arrangements.

Budget

Never ignore your budget when it comes to floral decorations. Always ask the florist his quote for the decorations. Ask him whether the labor involved, the florists fees and the cost for flowers all are included in his estimated budget. Dont let your budget escalate and keep it under check at all times.

After the Wedding

After the wedding, the flowers will all go waste as they have served their purpose. Have an NGO pick the flowers up. They can use it to make some colors which are used during auspicious occasions. If there isnt an NGO in your area then ask the garbage disposal unit to dispose your flowers.

So these were a few pointers which would help you get your floral decorations in place.
