Arranging weddings consists of many projects and assignments, some larger than others. One of the most important (and entertaining) tasks is buying your wedding floral pieces. Flower pieces form a lot of the character, feeling, and taste of the wedding. They are essential props in all of the wedding photos which will be looked at by family and close friends for many years to come. Floral bouquets happen to be used all during the marriage ceremony and reception to embellish church benches, act as focal points at reception hall tables, and have become therefore an essential element of wedding decorations.
But most importantly, wedding flower bouquets are held by the bride and all of the bridesmaids. As such the bride should make sure that she is not just pleased with the floral arrangements, she needs to be thrilled, excited, and happy about her bouquet. With all of the stress that comes with a wedding day, seeing beautiful flower bouquets all around will lift everyone’s spirit, bring a natural warmth to the occasion, and fill the ceremony with beauty and light.
That being said, how does one go about selecting the perfect bouquet for their wedding? There are a few considerations to bear in mind when deciding on wedding flower bouquets. Before you start looking for floral arrangements consider some of the following factors: your favorite flowers, floral arrangements you have enjoyed in the past, your favorite colors, and what you think the ideal bouquet would look like. Write some of these ideas down. The next step is to go online and view a variety of wedding flowers, this can give you an idea of what flowers look great together, and maybe even modify some previous ideas you had.
Don’t worry about what season it is. Some brides think spring weddings necessitate spring flowers- pastels, pinks, yellows. Instead, only consider wedding flower bouquets that make you happy, that you think are beautiful and stunning. There are flower bouquets for every personality out there, every taste, and every budget. From the dramatic dark red roses, to sweet and delicate orchid bouquets, find the wedding flower arrangement that is right for you and your wedding.
With the time and effort you spend finding the best wedding flower bouquets for your marriage, consider buying silk flowers. Silk flowers are a wonderful, underused and under-appreciated option. Many silk flowers are so lifelike that when given as gifts, people put them in water! They’ve come along way from the tacky, ugly flowers they used to be. They stay in perfect condition (unlike natural flowers that quickly wilt and fade), they can be just as lovely as real flowers, you don’t have to worry about pollen or staining from the flowers getting on your dress, and most importantly, you can enjoy these flowers for years to come. I myself used silk flowers for all my wedding arrangements and bouquets, and now these wedding flower bouquets decorate my home in a beautiful and meaningful way.
