Flowers Checklist

By The Celebration Team 22 Feb, 2010

Flowers add colour, beauty and nature’s touch to your wedding day. When meeting with your chosen florist and you need to be sure that you have your ducks in a row and know what flowers you want for your wedding day. Whether it is flower arrangements for the wedding reception, wedding venue, corsages for your mother, a bouquet or two for your bridesmaids or the lovely flowers you want to wear in your hair, a checklist will ensure you don’t forget anything relating to your wedding flowers and in the long run save you time, money (keeping you within your budget) and further stress down the line.
