How your wedding style affects decoration costs
The decoration style is the most important factor in the price. The same scope of services can cost twice as much in the glamour style as in a minimalist one. Here is what each style involves:
Minimalist (0.7x the base price)
Simple forms, a limited colour palette and plenty of space. Most often white flowers, glass and candles. The cheapest option, but it takes a good eye - less is more.
Classic (base price)
Elegant flower arrangements, tablecloths, napkins and candlesticks. A versatile choice that suits most wedding venues. The price benchmark.
Glamour (1.5x the base price)
Rich detail, crystals, gold or silver, lavish flower arrangements and luxurious fabrics. The most expensive option - a guaranteed “wow” effect.
Rustic (0.9x the base price)
Natural materials: wood, linen and jute twine. Wildflowers, herbs and mason jars with candles. Ideal for barns and outdoor weddings. Some elements can be made yourself.
Boho (0.85x the base price)
Relaxed, artistic arrangements. Dried flowers, pampas grass, macramé and feathers. Eclectic combinations of materials and styles. Some of the decorations can be made DIY-style.
How to save on wedding decorations
Choose seasonal flowers
Peonies in June, dahlias in September, hydrangeas in July - seasonal flowers are 30–50% cheaper than imported ones. A good florist will suggest substitutes that look just as beautiful.
DIY decorations where you can
Place cards, jars with candles and welcome signs - you can make these yourself. That saves 500–1 500 zł. Leave the bouquet and the main flower arrangements to the professionals.
Hire instead of buying
Vases, candlesticks, tablecloths and table runners - many items can be hired from a florist or a decoration company for 20–40% of the purchase price. Some wedding venues have their own decorations.
Go for fewer elements, but better quality
One impressive arrangement on a table makes more of an impression than five small ones. Skip the car decoration if your budget is tight - your guests will not see it in the reception hall.
A date outside the peak season
Florists and decorators charge less from October to April. At the height of the season (May to September), prices can be 10–20% higher because of demand.
