Let’s face it, everybody’s trying to save a buck. Brides are no exception. The cost of a wedding keeps going up year after year. Now, there are business springing up to provide brides with “wedding quality” flowers that they can design themselves.
Bad idea. Designing your own wedding flowers makes about as much sense as buying a couple of bolts of material and designing your wedding dress. Yes, I know, some people can actually pull it off. Most brides, however, cannot.
In the total cost of a wedding, flowers are usually a smaller item. Reception site, caterer, photographer, dresses, etc. will all cost more than the flowers. But think about this. When you look back at your wedding pictures, flowers will make or break the memory. Beautiful flowers, professionally designed, don’t have to be excessively expensive. Go to a trusted florist (hopefully Visser’s Florist), give them a realistic budget, and leave the hassle and worry to them.
Don’t ask your aunt, or your cousin to take on the responsibility. It isn’t fair to them and the final product will not be what you are hoping for. This is the best day of your life. Shouldn’t your flowers reflect that?
