"April showers bring May flowers"
This year, winter seems to have driven right up to Spring's door. The storms that broke over the UK's coastline, the flooding and charcoal smudge days have added up to a rather miserable few months for many of us, and, now that Spring is well established, we're looking forward and hoping for better days: sunshine, beautiful sunsets and warm air evenings.
Mother nature can't guarantee the weather, but she hasn't disappointed with some rather stunning springtime colours.. We've had bold, breathtaking and delicate blooms this year, and if you're getting married in May, you can still take advantage of them.
- Make sure that you pick flowers that are in season.
- Tell your florist early, so that he or she can ensure supply.
- If you're on a budget, then don't be afraid of being creative. There are so many resources now - many of them free - that can help you create something stunning at a fraction of the cost.
- Make sure that the bridal bouquet is the biggest. Use foliage to bulk it out if you're using expensive flowers.
