How to choose the perfect florist for your big day

Q – There are so many florists out there. How can we choose the perfect supplier for us?

"Finding the perfect florist can be as easy as walking into the first shop you see and hitting it off, or it may take a few consultations and appointments to find the right one for you. The first thing you should do is look at their previous work. Is it along the lines of what you’re looking for, or could it be tweaked to suit your taste? During your appointment, make sure you let them know your style and inspiration, so they have something to work from. A good florist won’t just say yes to everything you ask for but instead will give their opinions and ways in which you can get your desired look within your budget.

"If you’re struggling to make a decision, ask a few suppliers to send you some images of inspiration and see which comes back the closest to your vision. This should hopefully show you who understands your style and requests."
