Brides spend a huge part of their floral budget on the ceremony. To save on the ceremony decor, select a ceremony location that is scenic and beautiful without the need of additional decor. Historic landmarks are perfect for this.
Below is a listing of a few of my local favorites
-Charles Deering Estate in Miami
-Vizcaya Museum & Gardens
-Sundy House in Delray
-The Bonnet House Museum & Gardens
-Grove Isle (a private island off Coconut Grove)
If you find yourself investing in ceremony flowers, I have a few tips to help maximize those flowers. Rather than leaving them to the venue after the ceremony, have your floral designer relocate them to these strategic locations:
Namecard Table
Cake Table
Buffet Stations & Bars
Powder Room
If you have a small sweetheart table, forget about getting a centerpiece for that table. Create your own sweetheart table centerpiece by placing your bouquet at an angle in a short glass vase for everyone to admire.
If you have a large headtable, then have your bridesmaids display their bouquets in the same fashion...placed at an angle in a short glass vase along the head table. You can buy the vases from your florist or recycle your old vases. Bring some personality to the table by mixing and matching old & new vases.
If you have large floral altar pieces, have your designer dismantle the large pieces and cluster them into 3-5 small vases that can be displayed throughout the room for more floral impact.
