Hello everyone and welcome to another issue of Your East Anglian Wedding. As always, our June/July issue is full of inspiration, but my favourite part is the flowers feature. When I got married last year choosing the right florist was really important to me. I wanted flowers to tie in with our blush and sage green colour scheme, but also complement our barn venue. Despite working in the wedding industry for more than seven years, I’m ashamed to admit my knowledge of flowers isn’t great, so I needed a supplier who would be able to make suggestions and help us bring our vision to life. Whilst looking through social media, I happened to come across a stunning, oversized bouquet which was exactly what I wanted. We checked the company’s reviews online, confirmed availability for our day and discussed our vision with them. The team were fantastic and even suggested ways of helping us save money. Being able to discuss our vision in person made us feel confident about our decision, and I’d definitely recommend meeting your florists face-to-face if possible. The only thing I regret about my wedding flowers is not having them preserved afterwards. I attempted to do it at home using resin, and it was a complete disaster! If you have the budget to have your flowers preserved, I would highly recommend it. The day goes by in a flash, so you’ll love having something to look at regularly as a reminder of your special day. If you’re not sure what flowers or colour scheme to go for, head over to page 57 to see recommendations from local florists.
