Firstly, consider the style of the wedding. If your wedding is formal then consider formal flowers like roses, calla lilies or orchids.

An informal wedding is more suited to sunflowers, shasta daisies or carnations. All the floral arrangements must consistently convey the theme of the wedding.


The next important aspect is the color of the flowers. The best way is to use the colors of the bridal gowns or colors which compliment the bridal gowns. White or off white flower work best for formal weddings. A mixture of different colored flowers works well for informal weddings. Unless you are going to do the wedding floral arrangements yourself, your florist becomes your biggest asset.

Once you have a broad idea of what you would like for your start interviewing some florists. It is a good idea to take the colors of the wedding gowns with. A florist worth their salt will be able to give you advice on what color and color combinations of flowers which will best suit your wedding theme.

Some good advice here. It is always a good idea to interview your florist. Our florist gave us some very valuable advice in relation to the colors we had at our wedding which was a blue wedding theme and her advice was absolutly invaluable.
