Get your local florist to create perfect designs for you with these tips!
Florists are artists, and we work in a perishable medium. We love what we do and often have favorites that are not your run-of-the mill flowers. If you're not a flower expert, the best way to get the most for your money at the flower shop is to let the expert choose the ingredients and use their artistry to create a one-of-a-kind design just for your needs. Give them some basics — any favorite colors, a little about the occasion, and some style bits about the person (like "It's for my grandma, and she is very old-fashioned," or, "It's for my 14-year-old niece, and she loves bright colors!") and let them do what they do best!
Here are some tips for chatting with your florist and getting a designer's choice arrangement that meets your needs — and your budget!
