How to choose wedding flowers – our top tips

Choosing the right flowers for your big day can make a wedding even more spectacular. Every couple wants their wedding to be memorable and their choice of flowers or arrangements should reflect their specific tastes and personalities. To ensure you have the wedding of your dreams, here's how to choose wedding flowers to make your special day even more magical!

Research

Take some time to figure out what you like. Start by looking through wedding magazines, books and different websites that focus on flowers. If you do not already have an idea of the types of flowers you would like to have, simply looking at beautifully photographed flowers can be a lovely way to get started.

Keep a scrapbook – Here’s how to choose wedding flowers

You can get wedding flowers inspiration from many places. If you ask for recommendations from newlyweds you know, read reviews or browse wedding magazines it is important to take note of the names of the flowers or flower arrangements you like.

If possible, clip, pin or cut out any images you like that you can show to your florist or wedding planner later on – images can be way more telling than words!

Let your venue influence your florals

Your wedding venue will greatly influence your floral decisions. Whether you decide to have your ceremony in a garden gazebo, an intimate treehouse, on a sandy beach or at a private indoor reception, you want your flowers to compliment your choice of venue. Choose arrangements that look like they belong. For example, clusters of wildflowers may look out of place in a formal ballroom, where a glam grouping of orchids may be more fitting.
