The latest figure for the average cost of a wedding is about $24,000. This can include many features, and can depend on lots of variables. But this is a special day and most people are inclined to want to do a good job. No one wants to substitute donuts for a wedding cake, but there are areas where you can save money and not compromise on quality. Buying wholesale wedding flowers goes a long way towards freeing up money for other areas.
Today more brides-to-be are handling their own arrangements. Unless they come from a family of billionaires, most brides-in-waiting are willing to plan and arrange their own special day and keep the expenses within reason. Floral arrangements are not rocket science and are a real opportunity to express feelings, dreams and emotions. Buying the wedding flowers at wholesale prices gives lots of options to decorate and give away mementos of the day that leave behind a fragrant and colorful memory.
Making your own floral displays, table decorations and bouquets give you an ownership of the event that is hard to describe. Creating colorful floral settings makes the event as personal as it a get, a one of a kind type of family celebration that will establish a new tradition for a future bride. Some day she will imitate some of the floral pieces that you made up just for that day and make them her own.
Wholesale wedding flowers allow room for a few mistakes too. There are lots of "spare parts" and a short stem or two will not develop into a crisis or hurried trip to the florist's at the last minute. New ideas and collaborations will grow when everyone gets into the process. Hidden talents will be unveiled when the wedding preparers get to their green thumb artistry.
Buying the flowers at lower cost also lets more choices become available. More expensive flowers can now be available due to bulk buying. Instead of buying standard, catalog type arrangements and paying for the work of a florist, you can now arrange as you go, the floral pieces are now original, personal and unique. This really is now your day, no one has seen anything like it before.
No matter how careful the provider is, some flowers will wilt early or not be perfect. Buying wholesale wedding flowers gives you an insurance policy against being short in necessary colors and buds. Just remember to order enough to complete all the required bouquets and arrangements. You can always give away the unused flowers to your guests, or to staff at the chapel or reception hall. Your day is now part of everyone's memories thanks to the flowers.
