After working hundreds of weddings, one thing I know for sure is that no two are ever the same — nor should they be. Your wedding florals should be a true reflection of your style, your love story, and a lasting symbol of your union. In this post, I’m sharing 6 ways to maximize your florals so your wedding feels cohesive, elevated, and unforgettable to you and your guests.
ONE
DUAL PURPOSED-INSTALLATIONS
Tour your venue and search for spaces that may provide a dual-purpose opportunity. What makes your venue unique? Maybe a stairwell, mantle, or bar. This mantle installation served as a backdrop for both the ceremony and reception, making it a statement piece.
TWO
ELEVATE YOUR HEAD TABLE
Another high traffic area? Your dance floor. With your head tables often framing your dance floor, this is the perfect opportunity to draw attention towards the center of the room. Elevate your head table by incorporating high and low florals, a cascade, or heavy candles.
THREE
INVEST IN VERSATILE DESIGNS
It’s important to know that not all florals can be re-purposed. Anything designed onto a large structure typically won’t transition well. What does transition well? Pieces like ceremony altars or aisle florals are extremely versatile. Pop them on a mantle, or in front of your sweetheart table for all day use.
FOUR
MIXED CANDLES
Add a mixture of candles to your reception space. Nothing screams romance and elegance like a properly lit reception space. We love incorporating a mix of pillar, tapered, and votive candles for a stunning reception.
FIVE
DON’T SKIP THE SMALL TOUCHES
Yes guest tables are important but the bar will leave an impression. Don’t forget high traffic areas like an entry piece, welcome sign, and of course the bar! Having a floral element in these areas provide a cohesive and intentional approach to the event.
SIX
CONSIDER A TOUCH OF COLOR
We know, white florals are timeless and classic. However, consider adding a touch of color for a bit of dimension. Let the season guide you and focus on natural tones. Some of our favorites include dusty blue hydrangeas, green hanging amaranths, or mauve hellebores. A touch of color can elevate your design and create a pop on large installations.
