If it's a formal wedding you will want to stick to the more traditional wedding flowers. More informal weddings can use a variety of flowers. Along with the style of the wedding you must consider the colors of your wedding. If possible take a swatch of one of your bridesmaids dresses to the florist with you to help match the right color. The time of year that your wedding will be held can be a big factor in the type of wedding flowers you use. Using local florists and flowers that are in season will ensure you have fresh flowers and will save you a little money. If you're marrying in the summer in a fairly humid climate you won't want to use gardenias, tulips, lily of the valleys or wildflowers because they are not hardy flowers and will wilt easily in the heat. Flowers such as sunflowers, zinnias, lilies and hydrangeas are hardy flowers that can stand up to high humidity and heat without wilting. Choosing the flowers for your wedding can be frustrating but your local florist can be a big help. You local florist can work within your budget and let you know what is and is not available.
