If you marry in the winter, you may think that you are a bit more constrained as to what you can choose for your wedding blooms. However, you don’t have to feel limited in your choices for winter wedding flowers. In fact, cold weather nuptials often benefit from an already festive atmosphere, making these months ideal for tying the knot.
One of the most classic choices for winter flowers is to mimic the snow and ice that are already so prevalent. White flowers can be extremely elegant. They also suggest innocence and purity, a great message for a celebration of your special union. In addition, adding silver can provide a great impact. For example, you may want to consider having a silver candlestick encased in white roses. You can also accent white floral arrangements with a hint of colour. Be sure to keep it light in order to avoid overshadowing the main monochromatic impact. Some good choices are pale pink, pastel green and even lavender.
If you are more inclined to want a lot of colour in your wedding design, winter is the perfect time to choose flowers that have darker colours and richer tones. Some popular colour choices include dark reds, rich purples and deep shades of pink. Your choice of flowers is also important. The winter months suggest a substantial theme and you should, therefore, avoid light and wispy blossoms like columbines and lilacs. Better choices include flowers that are larger, such as roses, carnations and orchids. For foliage accent, try using ivy, eucalyptus and even pussy willow.
As you can see, there are many choices for your winter wedding. Of course, these days, anything goes. The most important thing is to use what you like. However, you can make your event more seasonal with these suggestions.
