How to Save Money on Your Wedding Flowers
Your flower budget doesn't have to be a source of stress. With a few smart choices, you can have stunning arrangements and stay within your means.
- Choose Seasonal Flowers: Opting for flowers that are in season in the UK is the most effective way to reduce costs. Out-of-season blooms need to be imported, which significantly increases their price.
- Go Local: Work with a local florist who can source flowers from nearby growers. This reduces transportation costs and supports a local business.
- Repurpose Your Arrangements: Get more value from your flowers by reusing them. Arrangements from the ceremony, like pew ends or altar displays, can be moved to the reception to decorate the cake table, bar, or guest book area.
- Incorporate Greenery: Foliage and greenery like eucalyptus, ivy, and ferns are less expensive than most flowers and can create a lush, full look for a fraction of the cost.
- Focus on High-Impact Areas: Instead of spreading your budget thinly across the entire venue, concentrate your most impressive floral displays where they will be noticed most, such as the entrance, the top table, and the cake display.

Spring (March - May)
Think fresh, vibrant blooms. Popular choices include Peonies, Tulips, Daffodils, Hyacinths, and Ranunculus.
Summer (June - August)
A time of abundance with classic favourites like Roses, Sweet Peas, Gypsophila, Lavender, and Delphiniums.
Autumn (September - November)
Rich, warm tones take centre stage. Look for Dahlias, Hydrangeas, Chrysanthemums, Asters, and colourful foliage.
