Your Floral Destination Wedding

Blooms are important whether you are going simple or a full-scale display. Getting married abroad is no different; you will still want to express yourself in the lively manner of which only flowers can produce.

Decide on your theme … Do you want flowers which you are familiar with or do you prefer a more tropical theme? Many tropical flowers are suitable alternatives and more durable in the hot climate; otherwise you can opt for silk from many of the décor shops available in Barbados.
Remember that while silk flowers are lasting, they will not capture the true beauty and fragrance of real blooms.
Check to see if flowers are included in your wedding package
If not check with local florists, your Coordinator or Hotel can help.
Book your chosen florist as early as possible
See samples of work created and remember to ask about options and customisation.
Ask about deposits, payment timetables and cancellation rules.
Sometimes rented flowers are suitable for a destination wedding but make sure you understand the policies and restrictions concerning the use of such. For example you cannot throw the bouquet as it would have to be returned.
Do not be afraid to experiment with colour. Your destination wedding affords you to be able to be much more vibrant and exotic than usual. Enjoy the lively hues of tropical blooms and play with surfaces and features, from the elegant drops of “Heliconia” to the vibrant texture of “Ginger Lilies”. Infuse excitement with ”Bird of Paradise” and other flowers, even mix with other blooms for a multicultural theme. Finish with enlivening foliage for an overall look.
