Your Complete Guide to Wedding Florals: From Bouquets to Centerpieces
Your wedding flowers set the tone for your entire celebration. Whether you're planning an intimate ceremony or a grand reception, choosing the right florals is essential to creating the romantic atmosphere you've always dreamed of.
Bridal Bouquet Essentials
Classic roses, peonies, and garden roses remain timeless choices for bridal bouquets. These blooms exude romance and elegance, making them perfect for any wedding style. For a modern twist, incorporate eucalyptus, olive branches, or delicate astilbe for texture and movement that photographs beautifully.
Consider the season when selecting your bouquet flowers—spring brides might choose tulips and ranunculus, while summer weddings shine with dahlias and lisianthus.
Centerpiece Magic
Low, lush arrangements allow guests to converse easily across the table, while tall, dramatic designs create visual impact and grandeur. Mix both styles throughout your reception for dynamic tablescapes that feel curated and elegant.
Don't forget about texture! Combining different bloom sizes, greenery types, and even unexpected elements like berries or dried grasses can elevate your centerpieces from pretty to unforgettable.
Seasonal Considerations
Choosing in-season blooms not only ensures maximum freshness and longevity but also helps manage your budget effectively. Spring weddings shine with tulips, ranunculus, and cherry blossoms, while summer celebrations glow with dahlias, garden roses, and zinnias. Fall brings rich dahlias and chrysanthemums, and winter weddings sparkle with amaryllis and evergreen accents.
