8 Unique Ways to Bring Flowers into Your Wedding

Flowers are sure to be one of the top items on your list when it comes to planning your big day. They are a traditional symbol of love and romance and provide the perfect way to add beauty and colour to your venue. While you are bound to be thinking about bouquets and buttonholes, there are so many other ways in which you can make floral arrangements a key part of your celebration. Rather than using unenvironmental decorations like balloons and card cut-outs, flowers are a decomposable alternative that will not only look great but reduce your carbon footprint, too. Flowers can be used to brighten up almost any space, and they are a great way to run a colour scheme throughout your day. Here are 8 unique ways in which you can bring flowers into your wedding day:

  1. Centre Pieces

Having floral centre pieces that match your bridal flowers on your entrance tables, down the aisle, and at the altar make great statement pieces that can be used to bring the subtler elements of your colour scheme together. If there are any areas that you wish to cover over, a large floral arrangement can also be the perfect thing to liven up an unattractive space.

  1. Entranceways

Flower archways make a beautiful entranceway that will look great in your wedding photos. They will create an instant impression on your guests which will set the tone for the rest of the day and make your venue feel really special.

  1. Bud Vases

When creating large floral arrangements like centre pieces and entranceways, there will inevitably be a lot of waste from small pieces that have been cut away to form the perfect shape. Rather than throwing these away, you can save them to be used in small bud vases to be dotted around your dining tables or down the aisle. This is a great way to get the most for your money and to rescue something that would have been wasted.

  1. Table Dressings

Continue your theme from the ceremony to the reception with matching table dressings. It may even be possible to create centre pieces at the church which can be dissembled to be used as smaller dressings at your dinner tables, allowing you to save both money and resources.

  1. Floral Crown

A floral crown is a beautiful way to make your bridal party feel special and unique on your big day. These crowns can be tailored to match your personal style and taste. You can pick the flowers, colors, and arrangement that go well with your wedding theme and colors. For an extra touch, you can even talk to your wedding dress designer, such as the one at https://www.va-bridal.com/areas-served/salt-lake-city/, about adding fabric floral elements to your dress. This will create a cohesive and magical bridal look that ties everything together.

  1. Gifts

Rather than buying your guests favours that are useless or may be thrown away, flowers provide something that can bring joy to them for days following the wedding that will not end up in landfill. Again, you can use the offcuts of larger arrangements to save both money and resources.

  1. Head Table Wreath

In order to really make your head table stand out from the crowd, use flowers to give it the edge. A large wreath either on the front of the table or above it can really give it a special feel.

  1. Confetti

Another great way to do your part for the environment is to use Biodegradable Confetti, i.e., real petals for confetti that are either fresh or freeze-dried, rather than plastic or paper ones. They’re easier to clean up, too!

With so many unique and inventive ways to use flowers on your wedding day, they really are the perfect way to create a beautiful and consistent theme.
