I have a budget in mind but would love your ideas on how best to spend my budget. Can you pull together your recommendation based on my budget?

We work on so many weddings and events throughout the year we are happy to make recommendations based on what you are looking to spend. If your florist takes the time to give you some great ideas they likely would love to work together.
How does your process work? When and how is payment collected?
Don’t be afraid to ask about a process including how many times you’ll talk, if your florist is open to doing a venue walk through, if they prefer email or phone communication, understanding each vendor’s process will help you stay on track. Also asking about payment transparency is important, every vendor has different payment structures and ways to pay.
What types of flowers do you use in your designs? Can I choose which flowers are used?
Asking your florist if they use specific flowers will help you understand the overall design. Some florists work with seasonal flowers and can’t guarantee something will be available. However if you’re flexible in what flowers are used, trust your florist to choose the best flowers that fit the overall aesthetic, budget and colors for your wedding. If you have an absolute MUST HAVE flower, let your florist know. They likely can order in specialty flowers if it’s something you’ve dreamed of forever.
Do you have a minimum spend? What if my guest count is smaller and I’m not able to meet your minimum?
These are great questions to ask your florist. Some florists have a minimum spend for any full service wedding, but there may be flexibility. Check to see too if your vendors require a minimum to be spent regardless of guest count!
