Flowers for a Wedding Prices

If you are currently preparing for a wedding, you are likely to be aware that it can be an incredibly stressful activity. There are endless decisions that need to be made and as each one is finalised, the bill for the event gets larger and larger. And while being overly motivated by money when it comes to such a special day would be wrong, shaving a little bit off the price here and there makes a lot of sense provided you choose the right places. Often up to ten percent of the final bill of a wedding consists of nothing but the floral arrangements and therefore if you want to save a little cash they can be a good part of the big day to do on the cheap. It is actually pretty easy to lower the flowers for a wedding prices, as I will now outline.

Lowering the Flowers for a Wedding Prices Tip #1

The first way of lowering the flowers for a wedding prices is obviously to simply purchase cheaper flowers. While roses may be the more traditional choice, they are also one of the most expensive and it is possible to get very nice flowers that cost a hell of a lot less. In my opinion the perfect choice here are Gerber daisies. They are one of the cheapest flowers that you can get for a wedding however they come in a wide variety of colours incorporating pink, red, orange and yellow. Because they come in so many colours it is possible to put them into complex arrangements that are just as beautiful as arrangements of roses but come at a fraction of the cost.

Lowering the Flowers for a Wedding Prices Tip #2

My next tip is to focus on flowers that have very wide blooms, hydrangeas being a very beautiful example. They come in purple, blue and pink and are perfect for a low key wedding ceremony. Despite their beauty, they can be used to lower the flowers for a wedding prices very easily as they can be purchased in much smaller numbers because of their wide blooms.

Lowering the Flowers for a Wedding Prices Tip #3

Now if you really want to lower the flowers for a wedding prices, then the best way to do this is to simply cut out the florist and pick the flowers yourself. There are many flowers that grow in the countryside that can be picked completely free of charge and though it can be a little difficult to preserve them correctly, if you manage it, it is impossible to tell that you haven't actually paid for them. I think that the best choice is sunflowers as they are incredibly bright and fun. And though sunflowers do tend to clash with a lot of colour schemes, if you pull it off, they will lead to a very beautiful wedding ceremony.

So in conclusion, by either purchasing cheaper or fewer flowers or simply by picking them yourself a substantial amount of money can indeed be saved. And provided you put a little thought into it, there is no reason why anyone should know that you spent very little in this area.
