5 Places You Need Flowers for Your Wedding

With so many wedding flower types to consider, it’s easy to overlook some essential floral needs. So, what florals do you need for your wedding? 

1. Centerpieces

A well-designed arrangement brings life to any table. When deciding on centerpieces, remember to consider size, appearance, and scent, as these all contribute to the overall effectiveness of the arrangement. You can also choose from allergy-free blooms.

2. Wedding Entryways and Arches

The entryway is the first thing guests see when they arrive at your wedding. From big arches to smaller arrangements that brighten the entrances and make guests feel welcome, floral displays for the entrance are almost nonnegotiable. A well-designed flower arch also makes an excellent background for photographs.

3. Boutonnieres, Corsages, and Flower Crowns

When planning a wedding, much of the focus is on the bride. Rightfully so, we might add, but many additional members of the wedding party require flowers, including:

  • Bridesmaids: Flower crowns are popular for bridesmaids, enhancing their beauty and cohesion with the rest of the wedding party. Depending on your wedding’s design, you may instead want bouquets for the bridesmaids. 
  • Groomsmen: Groomsmen require boutonnieres, tiny flower arrangements that they pin to their lapels or collars. This approach helps to integrate them with the rest of the wedding party and makes a lovely keepsake after the wedding. 
  • The couple’s parents: Of course, the couple’s parents are pivotal to the ceremony. Corsages are a traditional gift for mothers, while fathers get boutonnieres, creating cohesion with the rest of the party and adding a touch of elegance to their attire.

4. Arrangements for Food Tables

In addition to the main centerpieces required for tables, consider the other tables, as well. Some places that may benefit from flower arrangements include:

  • The cake table
  • Food tables
  • The bar

5. The Reception

Wedding reception florals bring your theme to life and make your reception space feel inviting. Consider these ideas:

  • Chair-decorating flower arrangements
  • Understated cocktail table arrangements
  • Decor for the seating chart table
  • Displays on either side of the couple’s table
