Winter wedding flowers: what the options?



Everyone wants their wedding to be as beautiful as possible. People are happy to spend large amounts of money and time ensuring that their wedding is just so. However, winter weddings can be a little more challenging to decorate and organise than summer weddings. This is because many more weddings occur in summer and spring than in the colder months. As a result, many of the wedding options available may not necessarily be the best options to suit a winter wedding. Wedding flowers are one such issue that you may come across when putting together your winter wedding. Fortunately, there are a variety of beautiful winter wedding flowers that you can choose for your special day.

One of the first types of winter wedding flowers that comes to mind is the tulip. Tulips have long been associated with winter weddings, and its no surprise that this is the case. Tulips are stunning flowers. Theyre beautiful and elegant, and petite and structured in nature. They come in a variety of different colors, meaning that they will suit many different wedding themes and decorative styles. Consider fashioning your bouquets and bridal flowers using tulips. You can opt for tulips all in one color, or a mix of different tulip colors. Consult your florist to see which colors of tulips are available in your area, and which are best to use for a wedding event.

Orchids are another stunning winter wedding flower. Orchids are available in a variety of different colors and patterns. They can be arranged to suit a variety of different colors and themes. You can either arrange your orchids in a bouquet that you carry, or have them sitting in decorative pots on the dinner tables at your wedding. Regardless of how you decide to arrange your orchids, theres no doubt that they will look fabulous at your wedding. Look online or check with your local florist to find the style of orchid that best suits your wedding.

Daffodils and jonquils are also excellent winter wedding flowers. Daffodils are vibrant yellow flowers that look stunning when mixed in with dark leafy green foliage. Jonquils are a smaller flower that look great when paired with daffodils, or when arranged on their own. Both of these flowers look great together, or individually. Consider carrying them as a bouquet, putting them in your hair, or having daffodil and jonquil baskets on the tables at your wedding.

There are many different winter wedding flowers that you can use on your special day. Some other notable flowers include freesias, irises, and chrysanthemums. Whichever you pick, youll find that they look stunning when put into an arrangement. Many of the winter flowers come in a variety of different colors and varieties. So no matter which one you pick, it will surely look wonderful on your special day. Consult your florist to find out which flowers grow best in your area, and the particular colors that you can choose from. Dont be afraid to mix and match, or to go for contrasting colors.
