Maria Laura's tips on wedding planning
- Have a budget. Be upfront with your vendors on exactly how much you can spend.
- Make sure that you are listening to your florist, but also that they are listening to you.
- Select a venue that is already beautiful and needs only a little enhancement.

- Don't skimp on the bridal bouquet.
- Boutonnieres should be simple and small.
- When selecting flowers, stick with one or two colors.
- Be flexible on the types of flowers you want. Keep in mind that certain flowers are seasonal.
- Save money by mixing tall floral arrangements with several low ones.
- Incorporating lots of candles with the centerpieces can stretch your budget.
- Put your dollars where they show. Limit floral arrangements on cocktail tables, in the powder room and aisle decoration.
- Don't cut back on ceremony flowers, which will show in the wedding photos.
- When thinking about the weddings overall design, you can never go wrong with a clean classic look. Todays trend is a return to classic elegance.
- Floral décor wedding trends include larger rather than smaller blooms; glass containers and groups of flowers rather than mixing everything together.
