Many flowers can now be obtained out of season because they are grown in greenhouses and are imported from other parts of the world. Seasonal flowers, however, are more likely to fresher and less expensive.

Celebrate your wedding day by opting for flowers that suit the time of year you're getting married. In Springtime, make the most of the wonderfully scented, green, white and yellow flowers which burst into life every March; brighten up a summer wedding with the season's vibrant, sunny blooms; incorporate seasonal fruits like rosy apples, grapes, corn, berries and hops into an autumn bouquet; and add holly and ivy to Christmas arrangements

It's a good idea to ask your florist for some original and creative ideas, but don't forget to get a rough outline of the cost before you decide.
