The first
thing
to
consider when choosing the flower arrangements for the ceremony and
reception is the space. Is it a small intimate room which would be best
suited to smaller arrangements, or is it large enough where an
extravagant arrangement may be appropriate.
Regardless of where the marriage is to take place, consider the venue.
It should reflect the style of your wedding.
The flowers for your ceremony and reception should be the same. One way
to do this (and cut down on some of the costs) is to use the brides and
bridesmaid’s bouquets on the bridal table.

Tip
Have the florist let you
know
when your wedding flowers have arrived and then go and see them.
Make a time with the florist to see your bouquet being arranged so that
you can make adjustments to it before it is finished.
