Tips For Choosing Your Wedding Flowers

No wedding is complete without flowers, and there are so many from which to choose. Sometimes choosing the flowers can be a little overwhelming, because often they can all be so beautiful. Yet, there are some things you can do during your wedding planning to make choosing your flowers and floral arrangements a little easier.

Do You Have a Favorite Flower?

Some brides have a favorite flower, but they wonder if it is really appropriate for a wedding. If you have a favorite, it is absolutely appropriate. Florists are professionals at making arrangements for weddings, and they can create arrangements using your flower as inspiration. So whether your favorite is a yellow daisy or a purple orchid, you can use your favorite flower at your wedding.

Did Your Fianc Ever Give you Special Flower?

If you and your fianc have a special flower you might want to consider using that as inspiration for your arrangements. Maybe your fianc used a special flower during the proposal or maybe you got a special arrangement on your first date.

Use the Past

If you still need some inspiration, why not consider using the same flowers your parents used at their wedding? This idea is very appealing if your wedding planning involves using a lot of tradition. You can also include a brief explanation about the flowers in your wedding program to make it known the special reasons for the flowers.

Use Your Theme
If you are planning a theme wedding, then you may want to consider using flowers that directly relate to your theme. Are you planning a Romeo and Juliet wedding? Why not use a rose, which was mentioned in the play. How about a Star Trek wedding? Try out futuristic designs using unique plants and flowers.

Consider the Season
The availability of many flowers depends on the season. Whether you are planning a wedding on a budget or have an unlimited amount of money to spend, seasonal flowers can often provide you with the inspiration you need to find the floral arrangements that make your wedding special.
