Wedding Flowers: The Language of Love

Wedding flowers have always been more than just a pretty decoration. In ancient Greek and Roman ceremonies, brides and grooms were adorned with garlands of flowers to represent fertility, hope, and the new life they were beginning together. During the Victorian era, the meaning behind each flower was so powerful that it became a means for sending cryptic and unspoken messages.


This secret language of flowers, known as floriography, assigns a symbolic meaning to each flower, color, and shade. When placed in a specific combination, these flowers can create a complete and intelligible thought. While we may no longer choose our wedding flowers for the sole purpose of communicating a message, the meaning behind them is still timeless.

Bouquets

The bride's bouquet is a powerful statement, and is likely to be the most important floral arrangement you choose. It should always carry proper meaning, match the theme, color scheme, and season of the wedding. The bridesmaids' bouquets and boutonnieres should always be less extravagant pieces that accent the bride's bouquet and color scheme.


Wedding Flowers of the Season

There are no hard and fast rules when it comes to choosing wedding flowers, but if you want to use real flowers, you'll need to embrace the season and choose flowers that are in bloom. While it's possible to find out-of-season flowers, they can be more difficult to find and more expensive.


Inspiration and Theme

Wedding flowers are more than just decoration. They can also add fragrance, intensify a dramatic effect, and shape the tone and feel of your moment. The color and type of flower you choose should match the theme and color scheme of your wedding.


Developing a theme and color scheme can be daunting, but it doesn't have to be. Gain inspiration and ideas at an all-inclusive wedding venue with a design team that specializes in the language of wedding flowers. They can help you create a wedding that is both beautiful and meaningful.
