FRAGRANCE.
What?
Yes! What do you want your bouquet to smell like? That might seem like a weird question, but fragrance gives birth to memories. Hopefully you have a sweet memory that you could relive from adding a certain scent to your bouquet.
For example, growing up - we had these huge lilacs in our backyard. I actually had to walk past them every morning in middle school to get on the bus. Now, when I smell lilacs, it brings me back to those memories with my family in a tiny home filled with warmth and love.
Sooooo be thinking of fragrances that bring happy memories and ask to add those to your bridal bouquet!

What do you prefer?

Save for inspo later:

Traditional or non-traditional bridesmaids bouquets?

Yup - you can (of course) hold the traditionally sized bridesmaids bouquets BUT there are other options if you feel like that’s your cup of tea.

If you plan to stand up with your s/o by yourselves why not just get your maids corsages instead? That way they are honored without needing to sit with a bouquet throughout the ceremony.

Another option that I have seen are bridesmaids hoops. I have only created 2 in my time, but they are a fun way to incorporate flowers in a different way than a traditional bridesmaid bouquet.

This might be an unpopular opinion but…

Save for later and send to a buddy getting married!

Bridal bouquets do not need to be the most important element of your wedding day.

Oops… did I say that?

Don’t get me wrong - bouquets are incredibly beautiful. They will be in all pictures, but do they need to be the most important?

I say that because when you are standing at the ceremony location with your significant other… Most times you are not even holding your bouquet.

And remember, you are there to get married right? Not necessarily to take photos with flowers all day.

Okay what do we do with this information? Well, first - find a florist who can make a beautiful bouquet but also offers design elements when it comes to what you are standing in front of. This could look like an arch piece, hanging piece, or something else.

Again - bridal bouquets are important but do not need to be the most important.

Anyone agree? Let me know below!

Imma be super real with you today

Save for later

You know that this is a place for questions about all things weddings. I hope you all feel safe to ask questions and I will do my best to answer them with my floral knowledge.

But imma be real… you don’t need to have centerpieces to have a wedding. Whattttt I know.

Guess what - you don’t need to have all of those 300 + guests either to have a wedding.

I am here to remind you today that a wedding is about celebrating your love in whatever you wish!

Maybe that means having 3 floral centerpieces per table. Maybe not.

This is about you two and doing what makes YOU happy, not just for traditions sake.

Any questions? Let me know below!

These 3 things have happened to couples more times than I can count…
Save for later because you’ll need a reminder!
Okay - you are planning your wedding and then problems arise!

* Setting a restrive budget
* Reaching out to the “top listed” vendors
* Became their own vendors.

Let’s break these points down a bit.

* Setting a restive budget allows possible disappointment with vendors. Of course, you need to stay within budget, but I recommend using broad percentages when it comes to wedding vendors. For example, 20-30% of your budget should go to flowers, not necessarily (at most) $3,000.

* Second, if you are only reaching out to the hop listed vendors on google or the knot… know that you might just be reaching out to those who are paying for that “top spot.” I recommend casually looking up vendors on social media and then reaching out when you feel like you found a good match.

* Then becoming your own vendor. Yes, feel free to DIY things, but also make sure that you are allowing your wedding vendors to be professionals. Allow them to do their job so you can relax.
