Ahh, a destination wedding: It’s an amazing experience that promises adventure and travel and gathering where you want to get married, with who you want to share it with. But like any wedding, a destination wedding’s expenses can quickly add up. There’s travel, of course, as well as lodging and food. And, no matter if you’re getting married on a beach or at a vineyard, you’ll probably want to have some flowers to go with your wedding attire.

The blooms may be simple – just a bouquet and a corsage, for example – or they may be elaborate and all encompassing. But whatever they are, it pays to work with your destination consultant about what flowers are in season. Those season-specific blooms don’t have to be trekked long distances, which means that they cost less – leaving you more to spend on your destination adventures. Read on for expert advice on budgeting for wedding bouquets.
