Ask to see photographs of their work from other recent weddings. Pictures or photos in industry catalogs will not necessarily indicate the quality of their work. Come prepared with a budget. Flowers, fresh or silk, can be costly, particularly if you choose fresh flowers out of season. To reduce the cost of fresh flowers, choose varieties that are in season.
Some couples prefer to have silk arrangements.
While they can be as costly as fresh arrangements, they make nice mementos for the bride and her attendants that will last a lifetime. Your florist can help you select the flowers that reflect your style and your wishes that are within your budget. The music at a wedding ceremony is a personal expression of your love and faith. Many couples rely on the organist at their chosen place of worship to provide the music during the nuptials. Other couples choose more nontraditional musical approaches, such as harpists, flutists, string quartets, pianists, and even disc jockeys.
