This article by Shelby Shy was posted on May 5, 2011 on Aboutflowers.com and we thought it would be interesting to share some of the questions she gets about bridal flowers.

Here are answers to the most common questions about wedding flowers and wedding floral arrangements:

I’m on a budget. How can I make a large floral impact at the ceremony and reception?

One way to get a lot of bang out of your wedding flowers is to “re-use” the ceremony flowers at the reception. A large formal floral arrangement at the altar looks festive at the reception . Most florists can transfer the ceremony flowers to the reception for you. It’s a service they offer that brides rarely pass up.

What can I do different for my mother other than the traditional pin-on corsage?

Mom’s today are hip and want to be different from their mothers. Consider a trendy floral accessory. Rings with dendrobium blooms, bracelets or hair accessories made of flowers or even a small bouquet to carry down the aisle are stylish alternatives.

What if I want to do the arrangements myself? Can I buy flowers in bunches?

At many florists', they provide a program where they offer flowers by the bunch. It’s an easy way to keep within your budget and you can showcase your own floral designing skills. Ask your florist what your options are.

What do the bridesmaids and I do with our bouquets during the reception?

The bouquets can decorate your tables or the cake table. Your florist can place vases at each of your settings or on the cake table for the bouquets. Another option is to lay the bouquets around the wedding cake.

How can I make my bouquet different and special to me?

Most florists can personalize your bouquet by adding your special mementos — family brooches, vintage wedding veils or special flowers — into its design. Your mementos make your bouquet “uniquely you.”
