W H AT A D V I C E D O YO U H AV E FOR COUPLES SELECTING T H E I R B L O O M S? "When looking for inspiration and something catches your eye, be sure to ask yourself the questions to identify what it is you like about the arrangement. Is it the shape? Is it the color scheme? Is there a particular bloom in the arrangement that stands out to you? Asking these questions can help you better understand your style and what you like. When you meet with your florist, show them your inspiration and tell them exactly what you like about each arrangement. Doing this will make selecting your blooms much easier!" |

W H AT C A N A C O U P L E D O T O MAKE THEIR ENGAGEMENT S H O O T U N I Q U E LY T H E M? "Think about your memories and things you love to do with your partner and work with your photographer to incorporate those stories into your gallery. There is so much you can do in engagement photos to add layers of meaning. Think deeply about the places and things you would like to remember about your engagement season and make sure to express those ideas to your photographer if they are asking for them. Think about your favorite articles of clothing, gifts you have exchanged, a location your parents got married, where you two met or a favorite date spot. Your style, personality and love story should beam out of them." |
