3 Hilariously Real Ways You Know You’re Planning a Wedding

There’s something magical about planning a wedding. The romance, the excitement, the dream of walking down the aisle surrounded by loved ones and breathtaking florals… and then there’s the spiral. If you’ve recently found yourself down a Google rabbit hole wondering if peonies will survive your outdoor June ceremony, you’re not alone.

At Flowers by Anya, we work with brides and couples every day who start their wedding planning journey thinking flowers are just a beautiful detail. But somewhere along the way, the flowers become everything. Sound familiar? Here are 3 telltale (and kind of hilarious) signs you’re knee-deep in wedding planning—and we see you, we really do.

1. You’ve Developed a Complex About Seasonal Flowers
You began this journey thinking, “Flowers are flowers, right?” Oh, sweet summer child. Now you’re awake at 2 a.m., scrolling through gardening forums and typing things like “Do tulips even like June?” or “Is it socially acceptable to have sunflowers at a winter wedding?” You’ve learned more about bloom cycles than you ever did in biology class, and let’s face it—you’ve seriously considered planting your own cutting garden just to get exactly what you want.

But here’s the good news: at Flowers by Anya, our luxury floral design team takes that stress off your plate. We specialise in seasonal, high-end floral arrangements that honour your vision while working with nature’s rhythms. Whether you dream of lush peonies, classic roses, or wild, whimsical textures, we’ll guide you through what’s realistic, what’s beautiful, and what’s going to look flawless in your photos.

2. Every Walk in the Park Is Now a Floral Recon Mission
It used to be a simple walk. Now it’s a covert flower reconnaissance operation. You’re strolling hand-in-hand with your fiancé, but in your mind, you’re silently ID’ing every bloom you pass. “Is that Queen Anne’s Lace? What are those blush-coloured things near the playground?” Your camera roll is now 80% random flower close-ups—and 20% screenshots of wedding bouquet inspiration.

Trust us, we get it. At Flowers by Anya, we love when clients come in with real-world inspiration. Those moments of discovery are a beautiful part of the wedding planning journey. As a luxury florist, we’re here to translate those little “a-ha” moments into sophisticated, cohesive floral designs that reflect your personal style.

3. You’re Not Sure if the Florist or You is Getting Married
You’ve told your florist things you haven’t even told your wedding planner. You’ve discussed your partner’s favourite colours, the emotional significance of ranunculus, and why eucalyptus “just feels like you.” Your florist knows your vision inside and out—and if you’re working with us at Flowers by Anya, we probably know your dog’s name and your honeymoon destination, too.

But that’s what sets a luxury floral experience apart. We don’t just drop off flowers—we become part of your story. From mood boards to mockups to day-of perfection, we’re there every step of the way, translating your love story into unforgettable floral moments.

So, Which One Are You?
Whether you’re the midnight Googler, the botanical detective, or the bride-to-be bonding deeply with your florist, just know this: you’re doing great. Planning a wedding is a journey filled with laughter, beauty, and sometimes a little chaos—but when it comes to florals, Flowers by Anya is here to bring the calm, the creativity, and the wow.

Let’s turn those wild Pinterest boards and flower photos into something breathtaking. Because you deserve wedding flowers as extraordinary as your love story.
