Flower Arrangements for Winter Weddings
Many brides are under the mistaken belief that planning a winter wedding is hard. Winter weddings offers the availability of the best venues at a better price than in the summer, and the ability to book vendors more easily, but it also requires more creativity. Most traditional wedding resources fall short on ideas for winter weddings. One of the biggest struggles for the bride to be in planning a winter wedding is the flower arrangements. There are few flowers in the season and buying out of season flowers can put a dent in your budget. Here are some simple things you can do to make your winter wedding flower arrangements unique.
While many of the traditional wedding flowers are not in season. There are a large variety of winter wedding flowers and Christmas wedding flowers that are available. There are many choices that will allow you to have a classy centerpiece for your tables without it looking like a holiday festival. These include Christmas roses, leatherleaf fern, gold foliage and twisted branches. The most popular of all of these choices would be the rose. You can incorporate various colors of roses into your centerpieces, and also the bridal bouquet.
You can also use the seasonal flowers decorate your venue. Gold foliage and twisted branches can be decorated with string fairy lights to create a fairytale type decoration, for your venue. Choose flowers based on the overall theme of the wedding. Look at the style of the dress, the reception decor and the general feel that you want to have for your wedding. The flowers will complete this look. Since many wedding magazines and wedding shows do not have a vast amount of ideas for winter wedding decor, you may find it easier to look at holiday decor and find ideas that are suitable for your wedding.
It's important to remember that the flowers are not restricted to bouquets and centerpieces. You can use them as napkin decorations, on wedding cakes, in button holes, or anything else you can think up. They can be teamed up with lights, pearls, or any type of decoration you'd like to use. You can also incorporate them into a fruit bouquet. By combining your winter floral elements with traditional wedding centerpiece ideas you will find that the combination can create a sense of romantic festive opulence.
You can have a grand wedding in winter. All it takes is a little creativity on your part. Taking the time to explore what's available for your winter wedding will show you that it's really not that hard.
