We wanted to share with you a fabulous website we found for inspirational wedding flower ideas. Wedding flowers can be difficult to choose, there are many options and styles to choose from depending on the time of year you are getting married. It is much more cost effective to use flowers which are in season when you get married. Otherwise out of season flowers can be expensive and eat into your budget.
As we are now in winter, we are focusing on winter wedding flowers, but on the website, information on other seasons can be found.
Choosing your flowers by their season is a wonderful way to theme your day. Be inspired by the seasonal countryside for your Winter Wedding Flowers and find a sensational choice of colours, scents and styles. By choosing flowers that are in season you can create a truly timeless and connected feel for your celebration with flowers that evoke the romance of the season.

© Ask to see their portfolio, all good florists will have a image book of their previous wedding work.
© Ask to see their testimonials, do they have thank you cards or letters from previous couples they have worked with.
© Ask your married friends, a wedding planner or wedding forums for recommendations. The best recommendation is from word of mouth!
© If they have a shop, is it clean, tidy and can you see they have an inspiration streak from their ready made flower bouquets.
Gorgeous flowers! We’re doing sugared lemons on half the tables at our reception, and floral arrangements for the other half. Pretty, and a good way to save money too.
