Whether you are hosting a wedding or a simple business retreat, flowers are often the central point of most decorative features at these types of events. From adorning tables to being strung up around the walls in more intricate patterns, flowers can be as big a part of your decorations as you want. However, many people make these decisions on their own, with no input from the experts. That is a shame when florists have so much knowledge and experience to offer that can help take your event to the next level. Here is why you should always talk and bounce ideas off your florist.
Match The Color Scheme
Flowers come in all shapes, sizes, and colors. However, you don't just have to choose the most popular type of flowers that you see at every event. Instead, you can personalize yours so that your flowers match the decided color scheme. Whether that is something truly unique like black roses and other darkly shaded flowers or something more reminiscent of fresh spring days, like vibrant greens, yellows, and reds, flowers that match the theme will make the event uniquely yours. Why not see what your florist has in stock (or what they can order) that might go hand-in-hand with what you have already planned.
Personalize The Bouquets And Arrangements
When you go into a florist you will find a number of pre-made bouquets which might deter you from asking whether or not you can have anything custom made. Of course, florists only make these for more regular uses, such as a gift to a loved one or a home-warming present to a new neighbor. For larger events like yours, they absolutely can customize the bouquets and arrangements to include flowers that might hold sentimental value to you, or are just your favorite type that you rarely see in use.
Placement Is Everything
Choosing the flowers themselves is important to get right. However, it's also important to style them so they look elegant and last the whole event. Having a florist on-site to help set them up is vital to the success of your flowers. Trying to do this yourself can mean you end up with quite droopy-looking flowers or with a lot of petals and foliage lost in the process. Florists are delicate, know the plan of action, and can work quickly to help put everything in the right place before the event starts, which makes them a must-have during the preparation.
