Aside from your wedding dress, the shining stars of your wedding will be your wedding flowers. For this reason, it is important to choose wedding flowers that suit your taste and will complement the overall theme of your wedding. If you are strapped for time like most brides, why not buy your wedding flowers online? It will save you a considerable amount of time, money and stress.

Difficulty: Moderately Challenging
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Color Scheme
  • Budget
  • Wedding Theme

    Analyze your color scheme. Is your entire wedding based around a specific color scheme? If so, it’s best to stay within your color scheme when choosing your wedding flowers. Before you even decide upon a specific flower, simply narrow down the color choices in order to rule out an unnecessary pool of choices.

  2. Step 2
     

    Prepare a budget. Wedding flowers will likely be one of the most costly expenses of your entire wedding. You can’t come up with a budget for your wedding flowers off of the top of your head. You need to estimate the quantity of wedding flowers you will need and the amount you are willing to spend for quality. Generally, a couple will end up spending anywhere from $500 to $1,500 for wedding flowers. But, since you are ordering your wedding flowers online, you will lower your costs significantly.

    Narrow down the choice. Choose a flower that will complement the shape of your dress and the overall theme of your wedding. An example of a bad choice of wedding flowers would be using daisies in a gothic themed wedding; it just doesn’t tie in together very well. If your wedding theme is “minimalist,” why not consider white calla lilies as your wedding flower of choice?

  4. Step 4
     

    Place an order. Locate a flower wholesaler online and mosey on over to your flower of choice. Sometimes online flower wholesalers will have “DIY Wedding Specials.” Simply place your order, choose a mode of shipping and your desired arrival date and you are done. Wasn’t that easy?

Tips & Warnings
  • Try to find information on an online flower wholesaler before placing an order. If they seem legitimate place your wedding flower order, if they seem to be a scam, take your business elsewhere.
