Popular spring flowers
Spring brings a variety of gorgeous and popular flowers that make the perfect addition to any spring wedding. Some of the most sought-after spring flowers include:
Tulips
Tulips are available in a wide array of colors and are often associated with love and new beginnings. It's one of the most loved Spring flowers on the market and really represent that Spring has sprung! Available from February all through summer.
Ranunculus
Ranunculus is one of the flowers that brides ask for the most, apart from roses and peonies. They don't have a scent but their layer like petals ads an interesting and stunning texture to bridal bouquets and wedding arrangements. We absolutely love to work with ranunculus, and they come in all the colours under the sun!
Peonies
Peonies are a romantic and elegant choice, with their soft petals and sweet fragrance. An excellent alternative to roses! Peonies are only in season for a very short period of time, from May/June to July.
Lilacs
Lilacs bring a soft and subtle touch with their delicate purple and white, fluffy blooms. They fill out wedding arrangements beautifully and ads elegance to the entire bouquet or centerpiece.
Cherry blossoms
Cherry blossoms are a symbol of springtime and represent new beginnings and renewal. Most brides loves to have large cherry blossom trees standing tall in different areas in the venue. Truly spectacular!
Hyacinths
All about the scent! Hyacinths offer a lovely fragrance and come in a variety of pastel shades such as blue, lavender and white. They are quite short and most suitable for shorter centerpieces or bridal bouquets.
All of these spring flowers are stunning choices that are sure to make your wedding day unforgettable.
Factors to consider when selecting spring flowers
When choosing your flowers, consider the seasonality, colour, availability, and budget. This is your day, and you want to make sure everything is just right! Take your time and have fun with it. Maybe you want a bouquet filled with tulips in shades of pastel pink or a bold mix of cherry blossoms and peonies. The possibilities are endless, and the choice is yours!
Including Spring Flowers in Bouquets & Centerpiece Design
When it comes to designing the perfect bouquet and centerpieces for your spring wedding, the sky's the limit! Mix and match different flowers to create a unique and personal touch.
Choose the right size bouquet for you - will it be a petite nosegay or a grand cascading bouquet? And don't forget about the handle and wrap! A beautiful ribbon or a vintage brooch can add an extra special touch to your bouquet. When it comes to centerpieces, think outside the box.
Tall arrangements, low arrangements, candles and flowers, and even hanging centerpieces are all great options. Get creative and have fun with it! Remember, this is your day, and you want everything to be just right. Let's make your spring wedding blooming with beauty!
Wedding flowers colour scheme
When it comes to colour schemes for your spring wedding flowers, the options are as vibrant and fresh as the season itself! Soft pastel hues of pink, lavender, and yellow perfectly complement the blooming flowers of spring.
Or, you could opt for bolder colours like bright fuchsia, sunny yellow, or lush green to make a statement. And don't forget about the timeless classic - a monochromatic colour scheme of all white flowers, which can add a touch of elegance and sophistication to your wedding.
The choice is yours, so have fun with it and let your personality shine through in your colour choices. After all, it's your day and you want everything to be just right!
Incorporating Spring Flowers into Wedding Decor
Flowers don't just have to be limited to your bouquet and centerpieces, they can be incorporated into every aspect of your wedding decor! From the ceremony to the reception, flowers can bring your vision to life.
Think about incorporating flowers into your altar arrangements and aisle decorations for the ceremony. For the reception, why not have a beautiful flower-filled arch or backdrop for your head table, and choose unique and stunning table centerpieces for your guests.
