Today we are going to talk about wedding flowers. How to style, save, and what some of the hottest trends are going to be in 2008.

Lets start by determining what you are going to need. First, you need have to have all your colors and themes set of before you can really choose the right flowers. Once you do this, it’s time to start looking at what’s out there. Know I know we all have our favorite flowers, but what if it doesn’t go with your theme? You don’t want to have flowers that look out of place, don’t panic, find someone who is good with a spray can. Know I know what your all thinking, you can’t spray paint flowers, but how do you think some of the flowers you see get those unique colors. You can use this process to take your favorite flower and make them fit your theme. Also, be sure that you look all types of flowers out there, there might be a flower you have never seen before that will really compliment your wedding. Now, the big question is how many flowers do you really need? This all depends on what “you” want. You don’t want an absence of flowers and you don’t want to be over kill. What I recommend is having small designs going down the isle and at least an arrangement on each table to really create the full effect. Then you need to determine how many small bouquets and boutonniere’s you will need for all your brides maids and grooms men. Next you need to have your tossing bouquet, and of course your main bouquet. Which brings me to the next topic, your main bouquet. This is will be the most fun to plan out, all your favorite flowers in your hand on your special day. Can this get any better? I think not. Take some time on choosing what you need for your bouquet. Do you go simple or extravagant? Well some of the biggest trends out this year for all your brides out there are going big, bold, and creating zen-like arrangements. Don’t stress over this topic, remember all of this is supposed to be fun. Look for someone to help you out with these decisions, websites, blogs, forums, anything to bounce ideas off of other brides to be.

Ok, the most important topic for almost everyone. How do we save money, but still create that beautiful look? This is where you need to do some surfing and find whats out there. Like I said above, my site has the best prices on the net. www.worldwideweddingflowers.comBut there are many places out there that’s will be able to help you style and save for your wedding. Check out some “do it yourself websites”. Arranging flowers is not that hard, you just need a little bit of practice and you can create that celebrity look yourself. Before letting your wedding planner do all this for you, go and talk with some of your local flower shops and see what they will charge for designing your flowers. Also ask them if you buy your flowers from another source, will they still design them? Do your home work, you can have all the flowers of your dream for less than you think.

What’s hot for ‘08? Well let me just sum that up with one word. “GREEN” This is the biggest trend we will all see this year. Eco-friendly everything is in. With recycled jewelry & invitations, green is the “in” thing to do this year. As far as flowers go, huge high arrangements, and one of my favorite, the round arrangement. Basically you have a small vase, or something to hold your flowers, and create a big over flowing arrangement that is perfectly round. Zen will be in this year, simple elegance will always be around I think. Pick up a couple of magazines, read some blogs, and most importantly ask questions. You can bounce anything off me, I will help the best I can. Just remember, don’t stress, have fun, and make this the day of your dreams!

Well, I will wrap it for today, next we are going to talk about to DIY ( do it yourself ) We will cover making arrangements, and other ways to help you save money. Plus your wedding will have “your” perfect touch. Thank you all so much for reading today.
