Select Your Container
- Depending on the location of your wedding, you'll have many choices for containers for your wedding flowers. Elegant urns filled with formal arrangements standing at the front of a formal church or baskets overflowing with long stems in an outdoor garden look equally as beautiful.
Define the Aisle
- To soften the look of a formal church, attach small floral arrangements to the pews on the aisles. Use lots of greenery to hang elegantly and use ribbon for accent. You might even see if candles in votive holders would be permitted for an evening ceremony.
- For an outdoor ceremony, create a bridal aisle with "shepherd's hooks" stuck into the grass hung with baskets of flowers. Be sure the hooks are secure in the ground and use lengths of ribbon to catch the breeze.
Lead the Way
- Remember to provide flowers to lead the way from parking area to the wedding ceremony and to the reception. If the reception is at the same site as the wedding, tie flowers along the path. If the wedding is outside, create floral arrangements to guide guests to the reception site.
Guest Book Table, Gift Table, and Rest Rooms
- A small arrangement for the Guest Book Table and the Gift Table will help to complete your floral offerings. Simple vases of blossoms add a special touch to restrooms, too.
Don't forget: when planning wedding flowers, make a list of everyone and every location that will get flowers. The florist or friend who is buying the flowers will need to figure out numbers to buy the right amount.
