Choosing flowers for your wedding day can be a difficult task. There are so many different stunning arrangements to choose from, and there are so many factors to take into account as well, such as the style of your wedding venue, the colour of your dress, the colour of the bridesmaid dresses, your budget, and much more.
We certainly recommend looking at bride wedding stories to get some inspiration for your own day. You will see that one trend you should certainly consider when it comes to flowers for weddings is the romantic luxe trend.
This trend is extravagant and luxurious yet elegant and romantic at the same time. It has been inspired by A-list celebrity weddings, such as the wedding of Kanye West and Kim Kardashian. As most celebrity trends do, this trend has grown in popularity at a rapid pace and now a large number of people are opting for lavish flower arrangements. This look is all about the high content of flowers. You cannot achieve the romantic luxe trend by opting for minimalistic designs.
Moreover, you need to choose romantic blooms, such as orchids, hyacinths, and hydrangeas. You should avoid flower arrangements with exposed stems and foliage. You also need to select soft and romantic colours, such as cream, pale pinks, and other pastel shades. This can be a very expensive option if you go for fresh flowers, which is why silk wedding flowers are highly advised, especially as you will be able to reuse them, and thus you will be able to keep a memento of your big day.
Why we don’t always recommend fresh wedding flowers
When choosing your wedding bouquet, one of the key decisions you need to make is whether to go for fresh flowers or silk flowers. This is a much easier decision than you may think. Read on to discover why silk wedding bouquets are a must for your special day.
There are many reasons why silk flowers are better than fresh blooms. The main reason you shouldn’t buy a fresh flower bouquet is because you don’t want your eyes to water or sneeze when you walk down the aisle. This can happen if you’re sensitive to flowers. Some people only realise they are when they hold them close to their face.
In addition to this, silk wedding flowers are a lot more convenient. This is because they can be delivered to you as early as you like. With fresh blooms, you have to get them delivered the day of your wedding to ensure they don’t lose their beauty. However, this is extremely risky. What if the flowers are late or they don’t arrive how you envisioned them? This would be a nightmare! You may be worried about choosing silk blooms, as they won’t look as good as fresh flower would. This couldn’t be further from the truth. In fact, if you buy with care, it’s likely that people will not even be able to tell the difference.
