Calgary Wedding Flowers | Preparing For Your Bloom Consultation

Read along as Tavia shares the Top 10 pieces of information to bring along to your first bloom consultation.
Coming prepared for your first bloom consultation is a key step in beginning a successful design process for your wedding. I encourage my brides to be knowledgeable about:
- Falling in Love: Tell us about you! We love hearing your love story, how you met and captured each others hearts! Having an insight into your story allows us to add personal touches to create unique designs specifically for you.
- Bloom Loves: Share the blooms you love! Perhaps it is a childhood bloom that caught your eye, the first bloom given to you by your fiancé, or a bloom picture that captured your heart (do not worry if you are unsure of the names, use photographs to capture your bloom wishes).
- Bloom Dislikes: Share if you have any blooms that you dislike or would not like to have in you designs.
- Event Vision: Walk your floral designer through how you envision the set-up, decor, and atmosphere of the wedding. Carefully selected stems can support and enhance your vision.
- Wedding Colours: Share your accent colours with you designer to insure the blooms chosen compliment your design ideas.
- Event Date: Have a confirmed wedding date selected so you can reserve the date with your floral designer. Sweet Bloom is unique as we only accept one wedding each weekend so we can provide the best possible support on the big day.
- Wedding Party: Have an idea of the number of people in your wedding party. This allows your designer to choose an appropriate number of stems to make each bouquet and boutonniere.
- Wedding Gown: Share the style of your dress. Dress styles help form the bouquet size and shape so it is a perfect compliment.
- Bridesmaid Dresses: share the style and colour of these dresses.
- Bloom Accents: Think through where you would like extra bloom accents for the ceremony and reception. Bring along pictures or share your Pinterest board to tell about your wishes.
Having the time to think through a few details prior to your arrival makes the first consultation more valuable.
We look forward to welcoming you to the Sweet Bloom Experience!
