Here Comes the Bride

Getting married?  Congratulations!  Planning a wedding can be a time of extreme excitement, yet somewhat stressful.  Following are some helpful tips to reduce stress and have fun planning.

- Choose a theme that reflects the personalities of you and the groom.  Discuss what each of you envisions for your wedding day.  You will know you've hit on your theme when you're both excited about it.

- Identify your style.  Look through bridal magazines.  You'll get lots of ideas.  Now close your eyes and imagine your perfect wedding.  This will give you a sense of your "style".  Is it traditional or contemporary?  What colors do you envision?  Carry your style through from your invitations to your wedding dress, wedding flowers and reception.

- When you're ready to talk about your flowers, schedule an appointment with a reputable florist.  The more information you can bring to your consultation, the better.

Bring a photo of your wedding dress and the bridesmaid's dresses.  Bring a sample of any fabric if you have it.  If you have pictures of your bridal and/or reception flowers from magazines that depict your style, bring them as well.  If you're not sure what style you'd like, ask your florist for suggestions.
