What\u2019s a wedding without flowers? It\u2019s not much of a wedding at all, that\u2019s what. Every wedding needs beautiful flowers to bring the venue to life and accentuate the cake, the wedding party members and more. Beautiful floral displays symbolize life, which is what you and your fianc\u00e9 are committing to each other when you walk down the aisle. Plus, they just look so great! If you need a little bit of floral inspiration for your wedding, read on for some ideas on how to make the most of your wedding flower plans.<\/p>\n
Hanging Glass Globes<\/strong><\/p>\n Want to draw some attention to your cake table with a look that\u2019s as modern as it is jovial? Try using a creative hanging centerpiece with glass globes filled with flowers.<\/p>\n Trellis Wedding Arches<\/strong><\/p>\n One of the focal points of most every wedding is the floral arch, also known as the \u201chuppah.\u201d Everyone\u2019s eyes will be going to you and to the huppah. You already know how important it is for you to look your best, but what about the arch? A flower-covered trellis with wrapping vines and dangling crystals can make for a gorgeous scene that will set expectations for the wedding and give everyone a great backdrop for photos. Best of all, you can mix and match and colors and flowers to match the season and your wedding theme. Pro tip: ask your florist to provide a pesticide-free arrangement for this.<\/p>\n Fresh Cake Flowers<\/strong><\/p>\n Another sight to see at any wedding is the cake. There are endless different options for making your cake, well,\u00a0yours<\/em>, but one tried-and-true approach that you can\u2019t go wrong with is to top it with cascading fresh flowers. Use blooms and greenery that match your wedding colors in order to pull your theme together.<\/p>\n Flower Chandeliers<\/strong><\/p>\n Want to change up the traditional crystal chandelier look of most weddings? Why not drape hanging strings of flowers over your chandeliers and cover the tops in greenery and berries to add a fresh, garden feeling to your reception?<\/p>\n Hanging Single-Stem Bottles<\/strong><\/p>\n Like your huppa, hanging single-stem bottles make for a fantastic backdrop for the photographer to snap photos of the wedding party and your guests. And remember our recommendations for DIY wedding projects? Well, this is another super easy DIY project. Best of all, it\u2019s completely unexpected, so your guests won\u2019t have already seen it at a dozen other weddings. All you have to do is gather some glass milk bottles and some stems in monochromatic shades and tie them securely to your arch or a ceiling beam to create a hanging decoration that really wows.<\/p>\n Low Centerpieces<\/strong><\/p>\n What\u2019s one thing everyone wants to add to their wedding? Conversation starters! You\u2019re inevitably going to have to seat some people who don\u2019t know each other very well \u2013 or at all \u2013 next to each other, but you don\u2019t want anyone to be miserably sitting in silence all day. It\u2019s a wedding! You want them to have fun. Lush, low arrangements like big-headed blooms (roses, hydrangeas, peonies) are great for getting this done, as are cascading vines that give the centerpiece an earthy, natural feeling.<\/p>\n Boutonniere Bar<\/strong><\/p>\n Don\u2019t keep all those wonderful flowers to yourself, off limits from everyone. Share the flower power with all your guests by offering a make-your-own boutonniere bar. It\u2019s a fun and easy activity that will keep the men busy before the ceremony instead of having them checking their phones or searching for a TV to check in on the game. Bonus: they\u2019ll all look debonair throughout the day.<\/p>\n
