Where to start if you want to grow your own wedding flowers

Could you grow your own wedding flowers? Do you want to? Imagine what it would feel like to have grown all the flowers for your wedding. Is this something you’ve thought about? If you’re getting married next year in the Spring or Summer you can grow your own bouquets and table arrangements if you start soon and have a detailed plan. Most of the flowers can be grown in less than 6 months but if you have longer it will make it simpler. You can sow seeds now and plant bulbs for early colour. Planting shrubs like roses and hydrangeas into pots and tubs would look wonderful. Before you go further I have put together a list of questions to ask yourself which will help you decide whether you could.

Ask yourself these 6 questions…

Have a look at the questions and think about your answers.
