When creating a unique experience for your guests, don’t just think bouquets (or boxes). Our bride Jackie went with a unique piece for her maids to carry, floral rings. These were then used for centerpieces with candle sets for the reception. Their ceremony was draped with champagne fabric and greenery.

Make sure you hire the best vendors that match your style. Having the right vendors can make your day perfect. We also recommend listening to your venue and planner when choosing a vendor team. A team that has worked together many times always goes smoother than not. We love working with new vendors, but know exactly what to expect from ones we have already worked with.

Picking a photographer and videographer is the next most important thing to your venue. A team to capture this once in a lifetime event is critical to making sure your day is forever frozen in time just as you remember it. Don’t forget to check out their social media, website and reviews. Not all photographers and videographers are the same. Some use film, edit with shadow, place filter on images and bring in teams to capture details. The more you know, the better you will feel about your decision.

Of course we would be crazy not to talk about flowers. Your floral, linens, and decor will set your wedding apart from every wedding that has happened at this venue before.

Hit Pinterest and gather all the wedding pictures that catch your eye.
Then, create a few specific boards for each category; hair, dress, bouquets, centerpieces, ceremony, cake, etc.
We recommend browsing the venue website and social media, see what has been done there in the past.
Then, when all that is complete; set an appointment with your planner and florist.
Some florists, like us, provide design consultations and will not only handle the flowers but also contract the rentals. Other florists may not offer these services and it will be left up to you, the planner or venue to book these items for the day.
