The choice available when it comes to your floral arrangements is what makes decisions so difficult. Nowadays you can have almost any kind of flower at any time of year, regardless of whether they are in season here or not. Add to that the almost infinite number of bouquet and display designs and it can be hard to know where to start.

Choosing your flowers seasonally is a great idea. This helps to lower the cost of your wedding flowers as flowers cost a little less when they are in season. It is also lovely to reflect the natural seasons in your floral arrangements. For example, if you are having a spring wedding, choosing traditional spring flowers helps to reflect the springtime feeling.

A lovely way to help tie your wedding day celebrations to your chosen location is to use flowers that have been sourced locally. Talk to local florists and get in touch with local flower growers to see what is available in the area. This can help to keep costs down as well as lending your wedding day a romantic authenticity.

Classic spring wedding floral choices include daffodils, tulips, freesias, hyacinth and narcissi. Fast forward a few months to the summer, and you are literally spoiled for choice, with pretty flowers such as delphinium, sweet peas, sunflowers, roses, hydrangeas, and larkspur in plentiful supply.

Choose an autumn wedding and you can choose flowers that reflect those wonderfully warm autumn colours with in-season blooms such as gerbera, chrysanthemums, hypericum berries and alstromeria. For winter weddings, romantically dark roses are available as well as fragrant lilies, pretty orchids, tradional ivy and dendrobium.

When picking a colour scheme for your flower arrangements, it can be a good idea to check out the wedding venue in Coventry first. Take some photographs of the venue to your florist and they will be able to suggest some colours that will work well there. Reds, oranges, yellows, and whites are the most popular colours for wedding flowers.

Take in some swatches or photographs of your wedding dress, and those of the bridesmaids and flower girls, so that the florist can get a better idea of what flowers will go with them. Also try to let the florist know as much about the wedding venue as you can.

When placing your floral arrangements, it is best to stand at the entrance into the venue and try to identify where flowers would look their best. You may find that there are features in the venue, such as pillars, mantles, or altars, that can be highlighted with flowers. It is better to accentuate the existing features of the venue with flowers, rather than trying to cover every square inch.
