FAQ 

Q:How do I figure out
the budget
for my flower's ? 
A:It can
really depend on the season you decided to be married in, but the general rule of thumb is
10% of your
total cost of your
wedding.
Q:Who receives
flowers?
A:Everybody in the Bridal party. Flowers have long
been used to distinguish not only the bride but also the wedding
party and special family members. Giving the mother of the bride and
groom corsage, is a tradition and also a thoughtful way for you
to acknowledge the role they play in the wedding. You may also
want to offer a corsage to other honored guest as well. Such
as grandmothers, stepmothers, sisters or Aunts. Corsage should be
pinned to the left shoulder. If the garment is of delicate fabric
you may want to order a wrist corsage or a small tussie mussie, which are very popular.
Q: How do I know what color
harmonies complement my Bridesmaid
dresses?
A:Here is where a professional
floral designer will help you create incredibly striking
color combination. Usually you can be sure that if you work with
analogous colors, from the color wheel, you will come up with
something that is very stunning. Most brides are drawn to
monochromatic colors harmonies. I love mixing slightly varying tones
of the same hues. It creates much more interest then one color. Also
using at least three or four shades really does create a
beautiful tone or shadow
effect.
Q:Are there ways
to keep the flower cost down?
A: If a tight budget is your situation, ask your
florist about rental items or if they will let you
provide vases or containers that would be suitable for centerpieces.
A popular choice for minimal cost arrangements, are low glass
bowls filled with a couple of floating flowers
blossoms and candles. Remember to keep it simple with one
choice of flowers in mass bunches for ceremony altar
pieces.That can keep the labor cost down. Be sure to honor flowers
that are in season, to get more bang for
your buck.
Q:How do I handle the
high stress level ?
A:Fill a big old bathtub with lavender and rose
petals, pour yourself a glass of wine, light some candles and
soak your worries away. Let English Rose take care of all your floral
needs.
