The choice
of wedding bouquet flowers is a very important decision. The ultimate
statement is the color and style of your wedding theme. Here are a few
points to choose your wedding flowers for your bouquet.
Fresh Or Fiber
The first and foremost step is to decide on the choice of either the silk
flowers or fresh blooms. Fresh flowers while being naturally beautiful
wilt and wither away necessitating special methods to preserve them from
turning brown after the wedding. The question of availability also crops
up with fresh flowers. Certain fresh tropical flowers have to be imported
to your place at a great cost.
Silk flowers, on the other hand are easily available at the local craft
stores and the blooms for the wedding bouquet can be preserved for generations
if properly maintained. Silk flowers can also be dusted easily.
Your choice of blooms should indicate the theme and color of your wedding
accurately. Silk flowers can be sprayed with a dye specifically made for
t. You can make your own dye by mixing food coloring in a spray bottle.
The color of some fresh flowers can be altered by putting the stems in
to water mixed with food coloring instead of fresh water.
Select the type of flower compatible with your theme popular choices for
tropical weddings are Anthuriums and orchids. Other choices are ginger
flowers, Bird of Paradise, Costus French Kiss or Heliconia, cabbage roses,
daisies, or mums which are popular for garden themes. Perfect for oriental
themes are cherry blossoms, jasmines and peonies, cowboy themed weddings
have a nice look with wild flower bouquets.
The Color
Green
Greenery is as important to the flower as color. For instance ivy will
give your flowers more garden-y theme while ferns seem woodsier.Greenery
can also be chosen to match the season of the wedding. For instance, red,
yellow and gold maple leaves perfectly match a fall wedding.
There are many things to consider while choosing your wedding bouquet
flowers. The time taken for the choice of right flowers is worth it. They
are the wedding flowers that stay with you for the rest of your life.
