1. Are You Available on My Wedding Date?
Florists, especially those who specialise in artful, design-led weddings, often become booked up far in advance. Checking availability early ensures your date can be held with care.
2. Can You Work Within My Budget?
A transparent budget conversation helps your florist design thoughtfully and intentionally. Ask about minimums, what is included, and creative ways to make the most impact with the investment you have. I always discuss repurposing your flowers throughout your day so you get the most out of them and your budget.
3. What Is Your Design Style?
Every floral artist has a signature style. Some are artful, modern and contemporary,other lean towards a more garden-inspired organic style. Look through their portfolio to ensure their style feels aligned with the vision you hope to create.
4. Which Seasonal florals Do You Recommend?
Seasonal flowers are at their peak beauty and often the best value. Your florist can guide you towards the flowers that feel lush, textural and true to the season of your wedding.
5. Do You Handle Set-Up and take down?
Clarify what level of service is provided. Full-service florists often manage all installation and next say take down so everything runs smoothly. I work closely with your other suppliers and venue to ensure this is an easy, stress free process.
6. How Do You Collaborate With Other Vendors?
A skilled florist works hand in hand with your planner, venue team and other suppliers to ensure your floral vision blends seamlessly into the overall design of the day.
7. What If Certain Flowers Are Not Available?
Nature can be unpredictable. Ask about substitution plans and alternative florals to ensure your arrangements still feel consistent with your palette, style and vision
