Fresh Wedding Flowers

Defined Tag: Wedding Flowers.

Other than the groom and the dress, the most important element to the bride is the wedding flowers! No other decoration says 'wedding' more than the flowers! They can be just in the wedding party's bouquets and buttoniers, and on the alter, or so much more.

Wedding flowers can actually be the theme in every decoration, the church, the path out of the church, the reception hall, and on every table in the dining room. If the bride is very picky about having only her favorite flower, however, this proposition sounds pretty expensive!

If money is no object, the elegance of having all roses or all gardenias for the wedding flowers that will be everywhere, would be superior! However, if money is an issue, the favorite flowers could be reserved for the bridal party alone, and then a mixture of other, less expensive flowers could be used for the remainder of the wedding flower arrangements and decorations.

Actually, the wedding flower arrangements on the reception dinner tables should be small, since you need the room for dishes, glasses, etc. Simple little bouquets in tiny vases would suffice. Maybe just the flower in the middle of the bouquet could be the favorite, so as to tie the theme together with the bridal party's wedding flowers.

These dinner table centerpiece bouquets, can be collected by guests when the party is over, and taken home and dried. This way, not only the bridesmaid's and the lucky lady who caught the wedding flower bouquet will go home with flowers to treasure. Many more guests will have flowers to remember the beautiful day they have shared.

Another great wedding flower idea is to have one flower by each plate on the dining table. In a very elegant catered affair, with multiple courses, you could even have a different flower for each course with each plate.

If one was absolutely filthy rich, there could even be a big bowl full of wedding flowers (for instance gardenias or roses) at the back of the church, or reception hall to be handed out by the flower girl to each female guest as they leave!

Nothing says wedding like flowers! Unfortunately, for some reason, more people seem to be allergic to the environment these days and flowers have always been one of the primary irritants. For this reason, and also for the reason of keeping the wedding flowers forever, some people prefer to use silk flowers for their weddings. However, without the scent of the live wedding flowers, something will be lacking in the total wedding experience.

Silk flowers may be just as pretty and colorful and may, in fact last forever but compared to live flowers, are not at all sensual. It is up to the individual which way they want to present their stunningly beautiful moment in time.
