Work At Home Ideas: Wedding Floral Planner

Every wedding needs flowers. From the bride's bouquet to the groom's corsage. Flowers decorate the aisle, they flow over the altar, petals are scattered for the bride to walk along... weddings are somehow not a wedding if there are no flowers.

So, how about looking into what kind of market there is for floral planners for weddings? Let me explain my idea here...

Pay a visit to FiftyFlowers and look at their selections for bulk wedding flowers browse through categories such as flowers sorted by color, or floral arrangements. FiftyFlowers ships their flowers by overnight express from the flower farms where the flowers have been picked fresh and bulk bundled. Transported by FedEx, the flowers are usually to the bride or wedding planner's door within 2 to 3 days of having been cut at the flower farms.

One of the most popular items at FiftyFlowers is their wedding packages which feature 23 pieces: including - bridal bouquet, bridesmaid bouquet, corsages, boutonnières, and table arrangements. These are pre-arranged floral arrangements that are created according to the specifications of the bride.

As a floral planner you would be helping the bride to select the flowers that would work best for her desired wedding theme. You would need to know a lot about flowers, and about what kinds of flowers your supplier (FiftyFlowers) has to work with, then you would present ideas to the bride for what the best kind of focal flower, accent flower and greenery would be for the appearance that she desires to achieve with the floral arrangements at her wedding.

What kind of flower might look best the longest if the wedding is a lengthy one? Would one type of flower have a similar appearance but more vibrant color than another one? Do you get a more appealing look to a table arrangement with this kind of fern rather than that one? What is the best greenery to use to decorate the walls with swagging? Those are the kinds of things that you need to be able to know, then you just have to find some wedding planners and see if they have any need of someone that specializes in floral planning.
