Florist-Approved Tips for a Stress-Free Wedding Morning
Let’s do this thing!!!
Wedding mornings are full of excitement, anticipation… and let’s be honest—potential chaos. But don’t worry, Blooming Blossoms has your back! As wedding florists, we’ve seen it all: from champagne-popping dance parties to last-minute boutonnière panics. So we’ve rounded up our favorite florist-approved tips to help you stay calm, centered, and blooming beautifully before you walk down the aisle.
1. Have a “Getting Ready” Kit Prepped & Packed
Think of this as your bridal survival kit. Include things like tissues, fashion tape, deodorant, breath mints, a mini sewing kit, safety pins, blotting paper, and anything you might need in a pinch. Don’t forget your perfume and lip gloss for touch-ups!
Florist Tip: Add scissors! Trust us, someone always needs them—whether it’s for ribbon trimming or tag removal.
2. Pad Your Timeline
Things almost always take longer than expected. Build in buffer time for hair and makeup, photos, snacks, and tiny emotional breakdowns (they happen). An extra 15–30 minutes of wiggle room can save your sanity.
Florist Tip: Give your florist at least 30 minutes to set up your bouquet delivery before photos begin, so everything’s fluffed and photo-ready!
3. Don’t Forget to Eat
We can’t tell you how many brides (and grooms!) forget to fuel up. A light breakfast, some protein-packed snacks, and plenty of water will help keep you feeling fresh—not fainty.
Florist Tip: Hydrated brides = happy flowers. No really… bouquet-holding takes more energy than you think!
4. Delegate Photo Prep
Designate someone to organize details like your invitation suite, vow books, rings, perfume, and jewelry for flat-lay photos. Having it all ready will save time and make your photographer very happy.
Florist Tip: Want a photo with your bouquet before it goes to the ceremony? Tell your photographer to grab it before it leaves the room.
5. Let Go of the Little Stuff
Something might go off-script: a flower petal might drop, a heel might wobble, the weather might change. Deep breath. Laugh it off. Focus on the joy—you’re marrying your person, and that’s what truly matters.
Florist Tip: Flowers are never “perfect” — they’re natural, just like this day. Embrace the magic in the moment!
Bonus Tip: Trust Your Vendors
You hired a team of professionals for a reason—lean on them! We’ve done this hundreds of times, and we want your day to be a dream.
We’re more than your florists—we’re your flower fairy godmothers. 🧚🌷
Now take a sip of something bubbly, turn up the music, and enjoy the moment. You’ve got this—and we’ve got you. 💕
