The "B" Word

Planning your wedding flowers should be an enjoyable part of getting married, but for many couples it can be a struggle.

More than likely you've never planned an event as large as a wedding before. Your florist, myself included, bombards you with so many questions about every little detail that it's easy to become overwhelmed.

And the most difficult detail for many couples, and the most critical detail for your florist, is - yes, I'm going to use the "B" word - BUDGET.

It's nearly impossible to discuss wedding flowers without some sense of what the ultimate flower budget is. The old school way of selling wedding flowers was to sell the dream. Create the fantasy wedding and they will surely find a way to pay for it.

New Year, New Look

With Christmas all cleaned up and packed away and in storage for next year, we are now gearing up for Valentine's day and the up coming wedding season. Wedding consultations are in full planning mode for the up coming summer and fall seasons. I would like to congratulate all the couples on their recent engagements. Stop on in and set up a consultation and get a jump start on planning.
