Learn how to get the cheapest wedding flowers Martha Stewart has on offer! Use great ideas from Martha Stewart and order wedding flowers online!
That’s exactly how I help my sister start preparing for the weddings of 3 of her 4 children this year.
One day they are in diapers, the next day they marry, just that my sister’s kids happen to marry almost all in the same year.
Back to Martha Stewart, wedding flowers, getting inspired yet keeping prices at bay: 3 weddings in one year means you have to budget yourself as good as possible.
How to choose wedding flowers
- Choose wedding flowers that are part of the life or dreams of the bride. Since my niece is a Martha Stewart lover, I simply look at wedding flowers from Martha Stewart to get inspired
- Don’t go to only one florist, but shop around at different florists. Look for a beautiful genius floral design and compare the prices of different bouquets.
You can also DIY but personally I love my florist to get involved as his love of flowers shines through in his bouquets.
How to get cheap flower delivery
How to get marvelous wedding flowers and keeping the price at bay?
- Order wedding flowers that are in season. If my niece would have married 2 months ago, for sure I would have added lots of tulips to the bouquets, but now they are out of season, they will just cost you a bomb.
Ask your florist to point out for you which flowers are now in season, therefore cheaper than other flowers not in season.
- Order flowers for delivery online. Flower delivery is done worldwide. By far, online florists are your best resource in order for you to find your wedding flowers. Look for discount flower delivery as there are bargains online if you look around carefully!
Once you have an idea how much things could cost, ask your local florist for his price. If he can do it cheaper than online florists, by all means let him handle everything!
- Go for simple flower designs.
You don’t want to get overwhelmed with the complexity of a certain flower bouquet or centerpiece design because that will be added in the price of your wedding flowers as well.
How to have the best wedding flower bouquets ever
- Make your order early and follow up.
Especially the day before the fresh flower arrangements should be ready, go see your florist personally and see what he is doing (and what not!). This is the time to interfere, not when the flowers are delivered on the actual wedding.
- Get inspired by things, people, dreams, colors, travels and flowers the bride loves.
In our case that’s Martha Stewart. Just visit her site and let the ideas come in. Since my niece will travel to California on honeymoon, we will surely buy some exquisite Californian flowers online from our featured Californian based online florist ProFlowers. They are famous for their same day flowers delivery, so we will surely surprise her as such
- When you order flowers: stay away from very tall and/or large centerpieces.
These flowers are not only expensive, they crack easily during flower delivery or get ran over by kids playing hide and seek behind your huge fresh flowers at the wedding.
For more ideas about wedding flowers from Martha Stewart, visit her websites like I do.

What do tulip flowers do when it rains?
Blooming bulb on a rainy day
On a rainy day, tulips flowers close their colourful petals, so stamen and pistil inside the tulip flower stay dry.
It’s not that a tulip can take a walk to look for shelter
Yet flowers are much more than seemingly motionless creatures!

It’s still May and I already cut some light pink pionies in a bouquet
Although it is warm these days: 19 degrees C when I wake up and 25 degrees C during the day, we are not quite enjoying our garden it as it keeps on raining every once in a while.
We do enjoy our patio as hubby yesterday kept himself amused making delicious Belgian Waffles there. Which is great as the fumes from his culinary skills made some of our neighbours popping by. Good idea as hubby always makes way too many waffles in stead of baking a few every once in a while
For those mentioning the above flowers that look like peonies aren’t pionies… well, hubby insist peonies should be written as pionies… no use to start discussing with a person who volunteers to bake Belgian waffles I find So if you want to know what do peonies look like: they look exactly as the pionies in the above picture!
When to plant peonies
Just to let you know that peonies aren’t spring flower bulbs and you need to plant them in September or early October. Let me write a complete peony care post the next time when I have some more time on my hands.
Meanwhile I think hubby has been drinking some port wine as he insists that peony care should be spelled peony care intstructions and for those who need to know what to plant with pionies, hubby’s answer is how predictable: port wine bottles are ideal to fence peonies growing zones …
All this because we want to enjoy a rainy day the most
Anyway, we took our rainy garden indoors by cutting some light pink pionies in a bouquet and high tea with waffles.
