Bringing your dream wedding to life isn’t easy, but you’re not expected to do it alone. While hiring a talented team of vendors should be your top priority, plenty of websites and apps are designed to help make wedding planning a breeze—especially for your florals. 

From visual search engines like Pinterest to color apps like Pantone Color Studio, many platforms are waiting to help take your floral designs to the next level. With an experienced florist and these apps on your phone, luxury flowers go from overwhelming to achievable. No vision is impossible with the right support and a little creative inspiration. 

1. Pinterest

Pinterest is more than just a social media platform. It’s a "visual search engine," primarily focusing on helping users find and save images and videos. This makes it ideal for those searching for wedding floral inspiration. You can scroll through creative floral ideas sorted by color, season, or desired blooms. It’s a treasure trove for all floral decorations. 

Create custom boards tailored to every wedding detail. Save photos that catch your eye to a collaborative board for your florist. Don’t forget to create boards for things you don’t like—they’re just as important. Having visual mood boards helps communicate your vision and guarantees everyone’s on the same page. 

2. Pantone Color Studio 

Before picking blooms and deciding on specific designs, you must choose a color palette. Picking out different hues and knowing what colors pair well together can be difficult. That’s why Pantone Color Studio is a tool many couples can use to create a palette that harmoniously fits together and represents their desired theme. 

This app allows you to build and create palettes to test on 3D-rendered designs. It’s a game-changer for couples, providing color inspiration and real-time matching. It also allows couples to share the exact Pantone color codes with florists to avoid misunderstandings about shades. With Pantone Color Studio, there’s no room left for miscommunication. 

3. The Knot Ultimate Wedding Planner

The Knot Ultimate Wedding Planner app is a tool for organizing all floral details. Start by scrolling through real wedding galleries to get some inspiration. You’ll find tons of ideas for bouquets, boutonnieres, and jaw-dropping floral installations that match your vibe. You can also take quizzes to help define your vision, such as colors, theme, and even floral designs. 

The app also keeps you on track with free checklists and timelines so you don’t miss any important floral deadlines. This guarantees that no floral-related tasks will be overlooked. Plus, the Knot’s budgeting tool helps you plan and manage your floral budget, making it easier to allocate and track it.

4. Bridal Bouquet Builder

Creating your dream bouquet isn’t just about picking pretty flowers. You must find the perfect combination of specific stems, colors, and designs. Those wondering how to make wedding flower arrangements will need Bridal Bouquet Builder. This app lets you choose your favorite flowers and greenery, instantly creating a 3D bouquet to see your vision come to life.
