Today’s post comes from Linda Montuori of Fine Florals by Linda. I met Linda at a bridal show at K&B Bridals several years ago. I’ve worked with her on several weddings and her work always blows me away. Her flowers are so beautiful, you don’t want to touch them. She is an amazing woman and I am thankful to know her.

Here’s Linda!!

What is one thing that would surprise most brides about your business?
A lot of people think it’s a glamorous job, but it’s very physical and dirty. Processing flowers properly requires making sure the buckets are disinfected each time, cutting the flowers and putting them into proper solutions and refrigerating them at the right time. I keep my flowers “drinking” for 24 hrs before I start designing with them.

Walk us through what a bride will typically experience working with you.
I like to meet with brides after they have selected their dresses. The color of the bridal attendant’s dress sets the color scheme for the wedding.

What is your favorite thing about weddings?
The Flowers! I also love the excitement in the bride’s voice when I talk to her a few days before the wedding.

What sets Fine Florals apart from other florists?
I specialize in weddings and events only. Therefore, my focus is specifically on “my brides” that’s how I refer to them. I never skimp, I have a tendency to give more than what a bride is paying for. I work mostly on referrals and therefore, everything must be 100% perfect when it leaves my shop.

Since this is a blog more about marriage than the wedding day, what is one piece of advice you’d give to future brides and grooms?
Keep your spouse at the very top of your list!

If you could go back and change one thing about your wedding, what would it be?
I would have today’s flower designs and I would have a burlap/vintage wedding.

If you got married while you were working in the wedding industry, did you make a change in your business based on what you went through?
I had no idea 25 years ago, when I got married, that wedding design would be my passion one day.
