Cut flower care instructions
Verify the water supply immediately upon arrival. Fill a sink or bowl with water, fully place the stem ends underwater and cut them at a 45 degree angle using a pruner, scissors or knife. Trimming your flower stems at a 45-degree angle is going to make sure that they have plenty of surface area to absorb water and that they don't lay flat on the bottom of the vase.
Check vase water level almost every day. Add water with flower food as required. If the water gets cloudy, replace the entire vase water with new preservative water. Remove foliage that is going to fall below the water level in your vase. Almost every day re cut stems 1/2". Fresh cut is the reason for good water uptake through the flower stem.
Wedding flowers
Decide to stay with the professionals. Even if you're a gardening expert, you are still going to be very busy in the days before your big event and on the actual day of your wedding to handle the floral arrangements yourself.
When you are visiting the wedding florist, look the items in their display cases. If the products in the display cases look fresh it is usually a good indication that they strive to provide a high standard of service and products.
