RING THE BELLS FOR WEDDING BLOOMS
Weddings are intertwined with flowers.From the first known use of wedding flowers in Ancient Greece when the bride wore a crown of flowers and plants, the two have been inseparable.
The bridal bouquet also had its origins in ancient times, when it was believed that a bride should carry a bunch of aromatic herbs and garlic to fend off bad spirits.Sage was often included in the bouquet as it meant the bridal party would be blessed with wisdom. In the Victorian era, flowers were assigned their own meaning and brides often carried posies which conveyed a coded message for the groom.
Also in Victorian England, a young girl would sprinkle petals ahead of the bridal party as they walked down the path to the church, which is where the name 'flower girl' originated.They did this to bring happiness to the bride and groom and to wish them a life full of flowers.
Nowadays, anything goes.From traditional white arrangements to modern creations in vivid reds and oranges, the choice is huge with the only real constraint being budget, of course. While you may have a good idea of what you want for your wedding, it’s best to consult a professional florist who will offer advice based on years of experience.
Many brides have their hearts set on certain types of flowers.However, one should always consider the seasonal availability of a particular flower.Different flowers are in season at different times, yet some people overlook this fact when planning the wedding flowers. Using in-season varieties will get you more bloom for your buck.
A professional florist will offer sound advice on how to create your dream wedding flowers using in-season varieties. Your wedding won’t be a disaster just because tulips won’t be in season ! There are so many varieties, colours and shapes of flowers, and so much can be done with interesting foliage, ribbon, fabric and other accessories.
A florist will advise on the most suitable varieties to use for the occasion.Gardenias, for example, are fragrant and gorgeous.Yet they bruise and go brown very easily, and consequently won't look beautiful in a bouquet for very long.The same goes for the delicate Stephanotis flowers.These flowers will wilt and go brown in just a few hours if they are close to body heat, so although they are popular for bridal bouquets, the reality is that they are not really suitable.
Ennis Flowers in Perth owner, Sarah Ennis, believes that it is important that there a good relationship between the florist and the bride, based on trust and integrity. “A good florist will advise on quality, durability and pricing of wedding flowers as well as the most appropriate blooms to complement the colour scheme and theme.”
Some of the most popular types of flowers used at weddings include roses, lilies, daisies, tulips and hydrangeas."It's always important to look at practical options," she says, "for example having a February wedding overflowing with roses may not be the best idea as roses are expensive around Valentine's Day and the quality can be inconsistent.”
With many years of experience in flowers in Perth under her belt, she is well-equipped to advise on what are the best flowers to use in a bridal bouquet. It’s advisable to supply a picture of the wedding gown and a fabric swatch to help select the best flowers.A longer bouquet is more suited to a full-length dress while a small posy or single flower are more suited to brides wearing knee-length dresses or skirts.A bouquet that draws attention to the centre of the body should be avoided by fuller-figured women, whilst a long, trailing bouquet will make a bride appear to be thinner and taller.
Wedding flowers are a vital aspect of the overall event.And whether it's an intimate casual celebration, or a traditional white wedding, expert advice from your Perth florist will make sure it's the perfect day.
