Wedding day decorations are the most crucial because the wedding decorations set the mood and style for the evening. Wilting flower arrangements and colors that do not match can spoil the evening.

Fresh flowers can make all the difference. The importance and significance of flowers in an Indian wedding is high and you can see how they are used everywhere –the mandap, the stage, the entrance and archway, the bidai vehicle, on the mare, the blessings, the varmala and the wedding day bed for the bride and the bridegroom. Choosing the flowers well and ensuring that they look good at all times is extremely important.

1.Choose a florist that has a reputation for being a good flower supplier for weddings. Wedding florists and decorators are different from the ones that make bouquets for birthdays and anniversaries. To find good wedding florists, ask your friends for references. You can also check up the Internet for some good wedding florists in your area.

2.A good florist should be able to give you ideas about the specific flowers that you should pick for the wedding day. Seasonal flowers cost lesser and should be chosen if you are on a tight wedding budget.

3.Select a wedding florist who stores his flowers close to the wedding venue. This will ensure that the flowers are fresh when they reach the wedding hall or venue.

4.Decide on the type of flower and the quantity based on your wedding budget. Exquisite flowers like carnations and gladioli cost much more than the traditional Indian rose or the oft used marigold.

5.Discuss the specific floral decorations that you will need for the wedding venue with the florist. The amount of flowers that you will need should be based on how large the venue is and the areas that you want covered. By the end of your discussions with the florist, you should have a list of all the areas that you want decorated like the stage backdrop, the mandap, the entrance and the tables and an estimate of the amount of flowers that you will need for each of these decorations. The details should also be broken up by cut flowers, flowers and petals since the requirement for different kinds of decorations may vary.

6.Also talk about the number and type of garlands that you will need with the wedding florist. The wedding varmala should be ordered separately, making sure that the specific flowers that you want included are specified. In addition to this, you will also need garlands for the milni and aashirwaad. These can be ordered once you have made a list of the milnis that you are planning and the number of people who are likely to give the aashirwaad.

7.Consider the kind of wedding décor that you have chosen for the specific function. Traditional flowers are better for religious functions like the wedding day or the mehendi. You can leave the modern looking or western flowers and get creative with them on the sangeet and the wedding reception.

8.Keeping flowers fresh is a challenge, especially for weddings that take place in the Indian summer heat. Sprinkling them with water can help keep the petals looking and smelling fresh. You can also cover them with a wet cloth till they are ready to be used.

9.Cut flowers with a stem that are used on tables or bouquets can be put in water that contains a copper penny or piece and aspirin. Lemon juice, sugar and bleach can also work wonders to keep flowers fresh. It might also be a good idea to avoid flowers that have a long stem since these can block the view of people sitting across the table.

10.Wedding flowers should always be chosen based on the overall décor that you have selected for your wedding day. Lavender or blue flowers may look out of place on the wedding day when all the other decorations have traditional gold, red and green colors.

In selecting flowers, it is a good idea to also get the opinions of your friends and relatives, especially  of your mother and father. It makes parents feel important and you may gain valuable information. With the right kind of wedding flowers that are colorful vibrant and fresh and sweet smelling, your wedding day is also likely to be exactly the same.
