Cheap Wedding Ideas: Flowers For A Beautiful Wedding
by Dee Power
Flowers at your ceremony and your reception are an important part of a lovely wedding, but they can cost thousands of dollars. The wedding bouquet alone can be several hundred dollars depending on the style -- hand held or cascade -- and the type of flowers you use. You can have fabulous flowers and remain on a budget. Your budget flowers don't have to look cheap.
If you're buying the flowers through a florist order flowers that will be in season. Daffodils are beautiful and not very expensive in the spring but horrendously priced at other times of year. Roses, carnations and mums are year-round flowers usually reasonably priced.
Be flexible on your color choice. Yellow and white are the most common flower colors, followed by red. Blue is rare, as is purple. True black in nature doesn't exist. If you have got to have black, use silk flowers. You can mix silk flowers with real ones as long as the silks are small flowered. Big black roses for example will look odd and out of place with live flowers.
Florist prices depend on the variety of the flower, how many flowers and how long it takes to make the arrangement. The simpler the arrangement, the less time they have to spend on it, the less expensive the arrangements.
If you have got to have exotic flowers like orchids, place one stem in a tall slender vase. You'll get the glamor at a lesser cost. You can use oriental lilies the same way. Usually there are three flowers on each stem. Place one stem in each narrow tall vase.
To keep your flower costs to a minimum don't use a florist. Grocery stores these days have a fabulous assortment of blossoms and bouquets. And they come in a variety of colors. If you want an arrangement for each table at your reception, buy an inexpensive glass vase and a bunch of flowers from the grocer. Place flowers in vase and you're done. If the colors are of paramount importance you can talk to the flower manager to see what she/he has ordered for the week of your wedding. You can then have the correct color bouquets saved just for you.
Order flowers online in bulk for the centerpieces. Just place a group of flowers with greenery in a vase the day of the wedding. Allow enough time for delivery and for the flowers to open. Online sites will tell you if they send the flowers tightly budded or starting to open. If the buds are tight, cut the stems 1/2 inch, place in tepid water in a well-lighted room to encourage them to open.
