Choosing your wedding flowers

Dependent on the month you are getting married, your wedding florist will have a different aray of flowers available to them.
If you are someone who would like a big say in choosing your blooms, then it’s best to discuss your options with a professional wedding florist, to see what flowers will be available for the time of year you are planning to marry.

So, where do you start when selecting your wedding flowers….

Spring Weddings

Orchids are perfect for spring bridal bouquets, as they are a sign of beauty.
Phalaenopis Orchids are larger flowers that really make a big statement while Catlaya Orchids are beautiful for romantic weddings as they are normally white with shades of pink or lavender around the centre.
Anemone is said to represent unfading love and a ray of colours such as reds, pinks and purples, while for a fantastic centrepiece, daffodils range from yellows to white.

Summer Weddings

Forget-me-not and Stephantis are ideal wedding flowers for summer months. Both are small blue flowers with shorter stems, said to represent true love.
If you’re looking to fill your bouquets with colour, then forget-me knots are great this, whilst Stephantis are white, waxy flowers which will make excellent button holes for the wedding party.
Chrysanthemums are colourful daisy like blooms. The lime green satin variety of chrysanthemums is perfect for complimenting a bright bridal bouquet if that matches your wedding scheme.
Carnations are a symbol of good health and energy and an affordable way of filling the room with great floral displays, while sunflowers are always a summer favorite and can make fantastic centre pieces on the guests tables.

Autumn Weddings

A lot of people think Autumns is all about dark reads and browns, but this needn’t be the case at all. The pink illusion Rose looks bright and fantastic in bouquets. For a more mellow autumn wedding, Gladiolus come in a warm, soft peachy colour, or maybe a bright red exotic bird of paradise for a more bolder look.
White heather is said to represent protection, and honeysuckle is a symbol of generosity.

Winter Weddings

Filling the wedding venues with a wintry yet cosy feel you could opt for holly berries, snowdrop and deep red roses which will add some glamour to bouquets or table arrangements.
Lilac has a delightful scent and livens up centrepieces while red poinsettia look beautiful with mixed tulips and roses.
You may find that during the winter months, there is a little less choice when it comes to your wedding flowers, but let the wedding florist create a nice mixture of foliage and wintry berries to look great and set the scene for a beautiful winter wedding day.
