Picking Your Perfect Wedding Flowers

By Kelly P Kramer


Wedding flowers can come in many different varieties for you to use on your big day. Today many brides will go with another type of flower other than roses. Sure you will still find roses in the wedding flowers, just not as much as in the past. These days weddings are made up of flowers of all sorts to fit into the color scheme of the wedding. These can include daisy's orchids, peonies or anything else that fits into your colors and theme of the wedding.

The first thing you should do is decide on the colors your wedding flowers will be, then you can pick the flowers that fit into those color categories. Then you can hire a custom designer to create the flowers you want for your wedding.

Most brides like to have their bouquets a little larger then what the bridesmaids have. This keeps the center of attention focused on you the bride. As the bride you can put white flowers in your bouquet and in the grooms corsage, then you can mix in the colors of your wedding into the bouquet and with the bridesmaids flowers. Most guys do not like to wear flowers of any kind, as these are very feminine, by leaving the stem in place you can make the flowers seem more manly.

To include the mother of the bride, keeping her flowers white is a nice touch. Clean and pure, like mothers are. If you want to use real flowers you should do this work the night before. This will save the flowers from damage or wilting. Most people will use silk flowers for this vary reason. To alleviate this you can hire a custom flower designer to create your wedding day flowers.

By looking online and through many different magazines and other pictures you will be able to create a color scheme that you will be happy with. Any color theme you choose will have flowers that can match as there is thousands of varieties of flowers for you to work with. You can go to florists to see a lot of these flowers first hand, of course at this point there are no arrangements so magazines can work the best.

This should help the fake flowers that you might use appear more real. If you are going to do the work yourself you should buy some flowers ahead of time and create a mock arrangement to get some practice and creating these.
