Tips for choosing a quality florist;

Choose your special event or wedding day florist with care. Many special wedding days become tragedies through choosing a freelance or "studio florist". This type of floral designer is often cheaper but they are often untrained and work from their garage, cheap warehouse space or apartment, they can have a great looking website to lure the unsuspecting. The horror stories of brides let down at the last moment as the home or "studio" florist falls ill or worse. Sometimes disappointment is inevitable when what you choose does not appear; instead you find cheap flowers, poor design and unreliable or unprofessional service which destroy your special day.

To get the most out of your flowers for a special event choose seasonally as this tends to provide the highest quality flowers, also work with seasonal color ranges if possible. Many flowers are available all year round but they vary tremendously. For example, around Valentines the cost of red roses increases 3 fold and other colors can be difficult to obtain or prohibitively expensive.

Your florist should give you advice on flower choices for each season. Preferably visit their Flower Store Mandys is based in San Francisco.
