Make sure you speak to the florist about your ideas, we express not to be afraid to bring swatches of bridesmaid dresses, pages from magazines with bouquets and floral arrangements that you like, the type of container you’d like to use, and any ideas you may have. Florists should be receptive to your ideas & are willing to listen to your vision. Having a one on one service is great, communication combined with tailor designs created around your ideas will be sure to make it a day to remember. 
Below are some questions that are always relevant to ask the florist:

• Images of recent wedding photo’s they have catered for, and will the same person be organizing and arranging your flowers?

• How many other weddings and events will you do the same weekend as my event? (this gives  you an idea of how much time and attention they’ll spend on your wedding flowers)

•   What flowers will be in season and less expensive for my wedding? How can I maximize my budget?
  
•  Can you tell me some ideas and creative ideas you may have they have been successful in the past?

•   Are there any additional costs such as delivery?

•  Do you have rental supplies (such as vases, urns, candelabras and potted plants) or do I need to use a separate rental company?
  

A good florist should always guide the customer to an arrangement that suits their style and taste, but equally should never be afraid of introducing something a little bold or daring. A good florist will always anticipate what the overall impact of a design is, not just how individual flowers or types of flowers look together.
