1. Go Local!
This is perhaps the most important tip when it comes to flower arrangements. While choosing what flowers you want at your wedding, go local and opt for flowers that have naturally occurred in the area. Not only does this lend an authentic and earthy feel to the decor, it will also help you save big bucks on flowers arrangements and will help local businesses thrive!

2. Get Low
While long stalk of roses are common at the dining tables, we suggest you get low with it: choose flowers that have shorter stems, like geraniums. Use a shallow bowl to display a bunch of short-stemmed flowers, allowing a few of the longer strings of petals to flow out of the bowl and you’ll have a gorgeous ivy-like centerpiece!

3. Feeling Exotic?
If you do wish to go for a few exotic flowers, try and incorporate them into places that will be the centres of attention for the ceremony- the mandap’s column and roof could do with a bunch of orchids. This will also focus attention on to the ceremony, without burning a hole in your pocket.

4. Make a Cocktail!
Instead of going with just flowers, use other elements like fruit and dried twigs to make the arrangement look vintage and evocative. If you think you could afford to, try placing a bouquet with a bunch of chocolates attached to the stems at every table- it’s a win-win for everyone!
