Whatever aesthetic you want to create, leverage the beauty of flowers to create a memorable ambiance that everyone will fall in love with. From table tops to the aisle and backdrop, every space can be enhanced using fresh blooms and their unique combinations.
Let’s find some of the unique flower arrangements that can make your wedding ceremony even more magical.
Flowers for Different Wedding Elements
Bridal Bouquet
The bridal bouquet is a statement bunch of flowers that complement well with the dress and overall wedding theme. Consider the flowers that are:
Seasonal: Opt for seasonal flowers that stay fresh and are budget-friendly.
Match Wedding Color Palette: Stick to the theme and color palette of the venue. The wedding theme and personal style are reflected within the bridal bouquet.
Meaningful: Flowers hold various meanings, and commonly used flowers like lilies, carnations, chrysanthemums, and roses in the flower bouquet all hold the meaning of love and purity. Some people believe it to be unfortunate to use such flowers due to their association with funerals.
Although funeral flowers might seem to be an unusual and wrong starting point for your wedding ceremony, however, the flowers used at funerals hold the meaning of love and affection. Owing to their pure meaning and resilience to stay fresh throughout the day, they are used a lot in wedding ceremonies.
Bridesmaid’s Bouquets
These bouquets usually complement the bouquets of the bride, albeit a little simpler. Make sure to use the same flowers and arrangements but in less quantity. We don’t want to outdo the bride’s bouquet, Do we?
Centerpieces
Reception tables are incomplete without the centerpieces. They reflect the whole theme of the ceremony and boost the overall decor.
Here are some centerpiece ideas:
- Tall Arrangements: Using long flowers and arrangements in the middle of the table can add some much-needed drama to the ordinary tables. However, remember to keep them tall enough not to impair the view of guests.
- Low Arrangements: Low arrangements with shorter vases and minimal flowers allow a nice opportunity to have conversations around the table and clear views of the stage.
- Candles and Flowers: The combination of candles and flowers creates a more romantic and intimate atmosphere.
Ceremony Decor
Flower arrangements for ceremony decorations can truly transform the vibe. Whether it is an indoor venue or an outdoor setting, consider pew decorations, aisle markers, floral arches, and more to add to the beauty of the venue truly.
Unique Flower Arrangements
Pair Dried and Fresh Blooms
Ditch the traditional arrangements and dive into modernity. A blend of fresh with dried blooms creates a unique and rustic vibe that screams awe.
Choose fresh pastel flowers along with dried flowers and stems to create interesting centerpieces along the dinner table. The texture of dry and fresh flowers creates a nice addition to the wedding setup.
Use Terrariums
Terrariums are another trendy wedding element used globally for fairytale wedding themes. The elegant yet whimsical floral arrangements enclosed in pretty glass containers offer a simple yet sweet touch to enhance the vibe of your wedding tables.
Coupling these terrariums with candles or fairy lights further adds to their charm.
Feature Two-Toned Designs
Play with the bold hues of blooms to make a statement all along the venue. Many floral arrangements in wedding ceremonies incorporate a plethora of colors. You can opt two toned designs using unique and pop-up colors.
Select the colors from any flower shops website and decide on the blooms that go well together in your opinion. Convey your ideas to your florist and use flowers that provide a good contrast to make the arrangements more interesting.
Blend Veggies, Fruits, and Florals
Make a unique splash of art using fruits as centerpieces, along with veggies and flowers to complement the look. Or you can pair a soft-colored floral centerpiece with two smaller pots filled with lots of tropical fruits. The pop of fruity colors, along with the softness and delicacy of flowers, is simply a chef’s kiss.
Final Thoughts
Flowers and floral arrangements don’t always have to do all the work of standing out and making the vibe. Pair them up with various other elements like fruits, fairy lights, wine glasses, napkin origami, or more to complement them.
However, remember to keep things simple so the venue doesn’t seem too busy. Just a nice display of colors and various elements in one place can create an elegant vibe.
