When you think about your wedding, you might picture yourself carrying beautiful flowers and seeing flowers everywhere that you look. Flowers can really dress up your wedding venue, but the problem is that they can be quite expensive. Luckily, there are a few ways that you can save money on the flowers for your wedding.

1. Cut Costs on Vessels

You and your florist will obviously need a vessel of some sort that you can use to arrange and display the flowers. Many people spend way too much on vases and other similar vessels, but there are a few ways that you can save. One option is to purchase glass vases in bulk from a wholesale supplier. Another option is to mix and match with vases that you might already have and a few that you can purchase used at a yard sale, flea market or consignment shop. One other thing that you can try is to use Mason jars instead, which is a very trendy look right now. The good news is that you can even reuse the Mason jars after your wedding, as long as you wash them out really well!

2. Go With Seasonal Plants

The plants that you choose can make a big difference in how much you spend on flowers. You will generally be able to find tons of flowers at reasonable prices if you buy flowers that are in-season, so this is definitely something to talk to your florist about. Along with saving you money, buying seasonal flowers will also help you keep the venue looking festive, no matter what time of the year you choose to get married.

3. Bulk Up on Filler Plants

You don't want to skimp on the filler plants when you're putting together the arrangements for your wedding. In fact, if you're looking to cut costs, consider doing the opposite and loading up your arrangements with affordable greenery. Then, you won't have to buy as many flowers in order to get a nice, full look.

As you can see, there are a few ways that you can save money on the flowers for your wedding. If you are looking for a way to buy flowers for your event without spending more than you can afford, give one or all three of these tips a try. If you do, you can save a significant amount of cash while still purchasing the perfect gorgeous flowers for your wedding.
