Flower Choices for a Winter Wedding Bouquet
Flower Choices for a Winter Wedding Bouquet
Weddings are usually beautiful and momentous occasions that many couples want to be memorable. One of the more memorable seasons for a winter wedding is winter, especially when it is snowing.
The pristine white snow would be a great background for a wedding. The only problem is the cold, which usually means heavier clothes for both the couple and their guests. Other than that, winter weddings usually have a winter wonderland effect.
The choices for a winter wedding bouquet are actually endless especially in this modern day and age when hot house flowers exist for the convenience of the bride and groom. You can actually choose any flower you might like to have for your winter wedding bouquet since these can be ordered from practically anywhere in the world. The cost would be phenomenal though so you might want to limit the out of country flowers to your bouquet.
Roses
Red Roses would be great for a winter wedding bouquet because of the contrast against the white setting of the snow and the dress, assuming the dress is either white or cream or a lighter shade. You can also choose to go with the pristine motif and get white or silver foliage for your winter wedding bouquet. Excellent choices for these are silver dollar eucalyptus, dusty miller and baby blue eucalyptus.
Holiday Theme
You can also integrate the season's red and green motif into your wedding by combining red flowers such as roses, tulips and other flowers which are in season with holly and other greenery. Your winter wedding bouquet will surely be outstanding especially if your motif is similar.
Go Green and Save Some Green
For a not so expensive winter wedding bouquet, you can also opt for a green bouquet with a few sprigs of smaller flowers. You can choose to have it designed like a posy or a really tight bunch of leaves with a few lither colored smaller flowers inserted into it. Other ideas for a beautiful winter wedding bouquet are cascading flowers or even a single calla lily carried like a scepter. You can also choose to carry up to five stalks of lilies if you wish.
There is no stopping the imagination to make your perfect winter wedding bouquet. Just make sure that you get flowers that can be transported to your wedding on time or maybe just choose flowers that are in season to make waiting for the flowers less stressful.
