Wedding season is around the corner!
There are so many wedding bouquets you can choose. So many that, sometimes, they’re even harder to pick than picking the wedding dress.
If you are having so much trouble picking your wedding bouquets, this post is for you.
My friend just got married a month ago and she was all stressed out with the wedding bouquet. Why? Because she was looking at so many bouquets with so many different motifs and styles, which made her stress.
From what I’ve learned from my wife and my other friends, picking the wedding bouquet early is a must. No question of the need, picking it should be done at the early stage of wedding preparation.
Remember, not all of the flowers will be in-season or available during your wedding day. This is why you need to shop for wedding bouquet as early as possible so you can find alternatives just in case the type of flower you want won’t be available.
It’s better to prepare than to get stressed out leading to your wedding day.
Type of Flowers
Before you go into the wedding bouquet inspirations, let’s go through some of the most beloved, timeless flowers used for bouquets. You can never go wrong with the classics.
Rose
Name one bride who doesn’t consider roses as part of her wedding. It’s classic and long considered as a symbol of love and beauty. A lot of people associate roses with beauty, passion, love, and, most importantly, emotion.
Roses come in different colors. So, whatever color you want, there’s always a rose color to match your taste.
Calla Lilly
Calla lilies have been garnering a lot of attention lately from people from all walks of life (not only the brides). Calla lilies symbolizes beauty and simplicity. The long-stem lilies aren’t only perfect for bouquets but they are also perfect for tall arrangements or table centerpieces.
Creamy ivory is the most popular color, but calla lilies like roses come in different colors such as orange, pink, and yellow.
Hydrangea
Hydrangeas are the new roses. They are as popular as roses. They are big bushy-type flowers that come in different colors, the most popular of which are white, pink, and powder blue.
Often times, hydrangea are medium-priced, which means that they aren’t as expensive as roses.
Like calla lilies, hydrangeas can be used for bouquets, table centerpieces, and other tall arrangements.
Peony
If you want full-head, fully-bloomed flowers for your bouquet, peonies are the perfect choice. They are large, full head flowers with strong smell.
A bouquet that simply consists of peonies will look amazing and thousands of bucks. They are good not only for bouquets but also for tall arrangements.
The downsides of peonies are the price (they’re expensive) and seasonality (they are only available from late spring to early summer).
