Wedding Flowers Guide

Freshening up your ceremony with beautiful blossoms


The kind of flowers you choose can share a lot about your personality and beliefs to all the family and friends come to wish you well. Some women (and some men, too!) know exactly what kind of floral centerpieces they want for the reception table, whether they'll have a nosegay or an asymmetrical crescent bouquet, exactly the shade of rose petals their flower girl will spread down the aisle...but plenty of women don't have all the details planned out their entire lives in advance. Maybe you have a favorite flower, or even just a favorite color -- we're here to give you expert advice for free.

Wedding flowers play a dual role in many weddings, serving as both accents and focus at different times in the ceremony. Many brides choose their wedding flowers by thinking about the season they're going to be married in, such as fall wedding flowers or winter wedding flowers. Roses, orchids, tulips, daisies and calla lilies are all particularly appropriate for summer wedding flowers and spring wedding flowers.

You'll also want to consider whether your wedding ceremony flowers will be different from your wedding reception flowers, whether your wedding cake flowers will match your wedding flower centerpieces, and what sort of flowers you'll use in your wedding arrangements. Those looking for cheap wedding flowers will find helpful tips, as will those in the market for fresh wedding flowers or even silk wedding flowers for timeless beauty.
