5 Reasons You Should Schedule a Consultation with a FiftyFlowers Consultant

Then you move to the consultation process and here's how the typical conversation with a florist goes...

Are you planning a wedding?

--Yes!

Are you looking for wedding flowers?

--Uh hu!!  

Great!  Tell me what you want!

-- (Blank Stare) 

We get it, you may not know anything about flowers and talking about them feels like a foreign language.  Weddings are stressful enough, now we throw in over 2000 flower types and your mind is on overload!  

You can stop the madness and simply schedule a consultation with one of our floral consultants!  Here's why:

1. Personalized Guidance for Your Vision

Wedding flowers are not just about picking pretty blooms – they need to reflect your personal style, the season, and the overall theme of your wedding. A consultation with a FiftyFlowers expert helps you translate your vision into a practical plan. We're well versed on all the popular styles, from a bohemian garden wedding to a classic, elegant affair, your consultant will help you choose flowers that align with your desires and wedding aesthetic!

2. Clarify the Logistics

Wedding flowers can seem like a lot to handle at first glance. With so many elements to think about—bouquets, boutonnieres, centerpieces, ceremony arrangements—it can get overwhelming. A FiftyFlowers consultant will help you navigate these details by  walking you through the timeline, recommend the right flowers for your season, and give you a clear plan for what needs to be done and when. 

3.  Recipes and Stem Counts 

Probably the number one reason to schedule a consultation with a FiftyFlowers consultant I hear from couples is for the recipes and stem counts (quantities) we provide!  After your flower selections are made, and head counts shared with your consultant, he/she will create a spreadsheet for you detailing exactly how many of each flower type to put into a specific arrangement.  It also keeps track of the total quantity needed as well as how many extras you may have for a cushion...you know, just in case!  

4.  Tips, Tricks and Florist Secrets 

You'll design with confidence after meeting with a FiftyFlowers consultant because we'll share with you specific tips and tricks to make the designing process easier!  You may even get let in on a "classified" florist secret!!  Ever wondered why it's recommended to cut a stem at an angle?  Or why flowers LOVE basking in the sun when outside but not so much once cut and in a vase on your table?  You'll also learn about flower care to lengthen the life of your flowers and possibly some ways to repurpose the flowers at your event, too!  

5.  DIY or Pre-Made; You Have Choices!

One of the advantages of working with FiftyFlowers is the flexibility to choose how involved you want to be in the flower process. If you love crafting and want to make your own arrangements, you can order your flowers in bulk, such as our DIY WEDDING KITS  and receive detailed instructions to create your own stunning designs. If you’d prefer to leave it to the professionals, your consultant can help you by offering our Pre-Made selections from our READY TO GO category, so all you have to do is cut the stems, place in a vase and enjoy!  

When it comes to wedding flowers, the difference between a good experience and a great experience often comes down to having the right support. Scheduling a consultation with a flower consultant at FiftyFlowers ensures that you get expert advice, personalized recommendations, and a solid plan that will bring your wedding vision to life. Whether you’re a flower enthusiast or don’t know where to start, we are ready to guide you every step of the way. Take a deep breath, relax, and let us help you create the wedding of your dreams – one petal at a time!
