The floral arrangements are going to play a huge role in your big days, so it's important to take a moment to think about exactly how you want them to be. From demure and romantic to modern and sophisticated, there are many styles and colors that you'll be choosing from, and they're all important. Here are a few ways to make this easier on yourself!
Start at the Very Beginning
Your budget is the best place to start before even talking to a florist. Flowers will generally take up about 3-8% of your wedding budget, but can sometimes use more if you haven't considered all of the necessary places they'll need to be put. You will also want to know what colors you'll need for your wedding, what your wedding dress and bridesmaid dresses will look like, as well as photos of your Colorado Springs wedding venue. This will make it much easier on your florist when you ask them to give you a quote.

Find the Right Florist
It's important to find a florist who can not only help you create the look you're going for but can help you achieve that while still staying under budget. When you start looking for florists in your area, be sure to pay close attention to their portfolio, because that's where you will see what types of work they are capable of creating. If you don't know which florist to use, be sure to ask our team here at Historic Pinecrest. We have worked with many florists in the area, and we know who is not only going to provide the best service but create a quality design that you'll love to look back on. Not to mention, the florists we recommend have worked with us before, and they'll be very familiar with the layout of our building and what arrangements will be necessary, what you can get away with not including.
If you don't know where to start on your floral list, here are a few suggestions. You won't need ALL of the flowers that are listed here, but it's a good place to start so you can truly visualize what you need for your big day.
