3 Reasons to Hire a Florist for Small Weddings & Elopements

Small weddings and elopements have such a special place in my heart. I love seeing the connection two people have for one another, and it’s a beautiful sight when they celebrate in such an intimate and meaningful way!!

And while many of these ceremonies often have a lot less decor, I’m a firm believer in the impact florals can have on the smallest of weddings. Take a look at some of the following reasons why you should still hire a florist, even if you plan to do without a big wedding!

1. You can use flowers and greenery to reflect your personality.

What you wear on your wedding day isn’t the only way to say a lot about you!! The color, style, patterns and texture in a bouquet, hair piece or other wedding florals can show off character and meaning.

They’re also often a great way to speak about the theme, setting or time of year! Is fall your favorite time of year? Are you absolutely in love with succulents? Let that shine through in your ceremony!

2. Bouquets and backdrops make the day feel more special.

There’s just something absolutely beautiful about adding pops of color and integrating pieces of nature into a wedding celebration! After all, it’s not every day that you get to make an impression as you walk down the aisle or say your vows to the one you love. Make the day feel more special with a drop-dead gorgeous bouquet to hold or an elaborate archway covered in vines and flowers to stand under as you promise your devotion to your life partner!

3. Less stress and more celebration!

Even small weddings and elopements can be stressful enough to plan and coordinate! Have one less thing to worry about or stress over by hiring a professional floral designer. They also have the expertise to suggest the right flowers or greenery to match the venue, setting or style you want to achieve. And you won’t have to do any of the dirty work! You’ll be able to relax knowing your florist has your best interest in mind, and you can continue to focus on enjoying the moment, celebrating with your loved one and remembering each moment for years to come.
