Florists Tips

Make sure you are organised before planning consultations. For Chirpee, we need you to have your venue and date booked. Share the budget with your suppliers, its important so they can tailor ideas.

Be realistic about you budget. You should allocate 10% of you overall wedding spend for flowers.

Provide a budget. Money is difficult enough to talk about, but by knowing your budget, your florist can make suggestions and alternatives that will help keep your budget.

We can help by talking to you in order to cement your thoughts into firm plan from colour scheme to which seasonal flowers are usually around for the season chosen for your wedding.

It is best that you make notes of how you want your wedding to pan out, as the more you do this the better the clarification of your thoughts become evident. Try and keep a diary daily.

Choose British grown flowers to cut down the carbon foot print of your wedding

Once our ‘busy bees’ have started buzzing around ordering your faux flowers, gathering all required to make it happen, we will still keep in touch on a regular basis…we keep you in the loop always.

Be realistic- most pictures on social media have filters and Photoshop

If you need it, get it, you will only regret not having it when it is 1 day that you can never ‘redo’.

Gather your inspiration and don’t be afraid to say ‘I want this, this way’ & ‘please help’

Believe that you can, wedding planning is hard and using the right suppliers can make this so much more easier.

Don't be too specific about certain flowers or exact designs, allow your florist to use their creativity.
