Interest Approach
Let’s pretend that we are planning a wedding. What sorts of flowers will we need? How many people will be in our
bridal party? What kind of a budget will we have? Where will the ceremony take
place? And the reception?
What Are the Typical Floral Needs for a Wedding?The planning process with a
knowledgeable florist is the first step in helping the bride and groom make floral decisions about their wedding.
The wedding consultation is conducted after the bride and groom have set a date. The florist should provide an area that is
big enough for 3 to 4 people. The bride usually brings the groom, mother and
a friend.
The florist should also provide a portfolio of previous wedding work along with wedding flower idea books.
Collect information on date, time, colors and style of wedding.
Customs and ceremonial requirements should be discussed.
Use a wedding order form to make note of all flowers and accessories for the wedding. The form organizes all aspects of the
wedding and serves as a contract
Floral Needs of a Wedding Bouquet for the bride Bouquet for the
maid/matron of honor Bouquet for the bridesmaids Flower girl bouquet Boutonniere for the groom Boutonniere for the best
man Boutonniere for the
groomsmen Boutonniere for the ushers
Boutonniere for ring bearer Flowers for parents and
grandparents Flowers for other people

Presentation bouquets for parents
Altar arrangements- flowers placed on the altar at the church
Floral Needs Continued Unity candle arrange-
ments - a floral design created for a unity candle to be placed near the altar
Pew decorations - arrangements of flowers and/or bows placed on the church pews
Kneeling bench - a bench on which the bride and groom kneel
Candelabra designs - formal arrangements created to hang on free standing candelabras (candle holders)
Aisle runner - the white runner placed down the middle of the aisle prior to the wedding party entering the church
Chuppah - a canopy for Jewish weddings
Guest book arrangement
This is a Chuppah used during Jewish weddings.
Here are various ways to decorate the pews in a church.
Floral Needs for the Reception
Centerpieces - head tableCenterpieces - serving tablesCenterpieces - guest tablesCake table decorationsFlowers for the wedding cakeToss bouquet - a small bouquet used by the
bride in the bouquet toss
Ordering flowers from the wholesaler is the next step for the florist
Usually this needs to be done weeks in advance in order to meet special needs Remember to take into consideration the
size of the flower bundles during the consultation process
It helps to list all the flowers needed in each design before ordering Flower totals will help reduce loss and
ensure proper numbers
How Is the Design Style of a Wedding Determined?
The wedding style will be determined by the type of wedding taking place. A backyard wedding at the parent’s house
is different from a cathedral wedding with the reception at the country club.
Deciding whether the wedding is formal or informal is the first step.
Sometimes themes are used, for example a winter wonderland theme.
Themed Weddings!
Once the style is determined, the bouquets are designed.
Flowers for the hair can be incorporated into a veil, headband or small comb. These flowers are often repeated in the
bouquets. Bobby pins are used to attach them into
place. Baby’s breath may also be worked into the
hair and held in place by hair spray.
Symmetrical altar arrangements are placed on both sides of the altar. Can be arranged in canisters that are fit
into vases. Sometimes these flowers need to be taken
to the reception. Candelabras may be substituted for altar
flowers or used in combination with altar flowers.
Unity candle pieces are comprised of two taper candles and a large unity candle in the center.
Symbolizes two lives becoming one
Pew decorations are bows, flowers or floral designs attached to the end of pews. Reserved seating is often marked with larger
decorations. #9 or #40 ribbon is most commonly used for
pew bows. Tulle may be added for a softer appearance.
Chenille stems, rubber bands, or pew clips are used to attach the decorations.
General shape of the decorations are round oval or one-sided arrangements with cascading foliage.
Reception flowers should have the same style as those at the church. Usually many of the flowers from the
church will be used at the reception.Additional designs can include an
entryway arch, floral garlands, potted plants and arrangements for the wedding cake. Wedding cake flowers are often designed
like corsages or in small floral foam containers called cake toppers.
What Types of Bouquets Are Available for the Bride?
The bridal bouquet should reflect the style of gown and the wedding.
Choices include colonial, cascade, variations of the cascade, arm bouquet, hand-tied and special bouquet designs.
The flowers the bride chooses will help in determining the best bouquet style. Ex. Large calla lilies would look
better hand-tied than in a colonial bouquet.
A bouquet may be designed in a floral foam holder or wired and taped. A floral foam holder consists of a
plastic cage and handle with floral foam on the inside.
The foam and cage hold the flowers in place and provide moisture for them
This method is faster than wiring and taping.
Use a floral adhesive to prevent the flowers from falling out.
Bouquets can be stored flat or in a holder. Deliver them in bags and sprayed with a
fine mist of water; Avoid getting water on the ribbon.
Styles of Bouquets:
Colonial bouquet: A round bouquet
based on the English nosegay.
Hand held bouquets constructed in a bouquet holder.
Cascade bouquet - A full, rounded
central area with an eye-catching trailing line of flowers and foliage
Designed like the colonial with the addition of the cascading flowers
Crescent bouquet - A variation of the
cascading bouquet that is designed in a C shape.
Has an asymmetrical cascade.
Arm bouquet - A grouping of flowers
that is tied together and cradled in the left arm.
Presentation bouquets are constructed in this manner.
Hand-tied bouquet - A natural looking
gathering of flowers and foliage with the stems tied together.
Can be adorned with ribbon, cording or tulle.
Specialty bouquets - Usually attached to
something such as a parasol, fan, basket or muff.
Not as popular but a florist must still be familiar with them.
Flowers carried in a basket would be nice for an outdoor wedding.
This is a decorated muff which would keep the bride’s hands warm during a winter wedding.
What Services Does a Florist Provide for a Wedding?
General services include delivering the flowers to the wedding and reception sites.
If more services are required, a few may be charged for; It is important to carry a service kit from
site to site in case problems arise.
Additional Services Continued:
Distributing the flowers Pinning corsages and boutonnieres Lighting candles as needed Positioning the aisle runner Instructions on holding bouquets properly Transporting the ceremony flowers to the
reception.
