Summer is the perfect time to tie the knot, when so many of our favourite flowers are in bloom. Here’s our pick of some of the most desirable looks for for your floral bouquet.

You may have been dreaming of your wedding flowers for a long time, but it’s not always as simple as picking your favourite flower and creating a bouquet around it. 

Many flowers may simply not have the longevity needed to stay fresh and bright throughout the long day ahead – you don’t want everything starting to droop as you walk down the aisle!

However, the important thing is that there are no right or wrong choices when it comes to flowers. It’s vital to know how much you can budget for flowers before getting your hopes up – however, if you choose flowers that are in season, that will definitely help to keep the cost down, and so many flowers are in season at this time of the year!

Colour is the key thing when it comes to your bouquet – your flowers need to complement the wedding dress, theme and the clothing of the rest of the bridal party.

 

Sultry weather will bring challenges when it comes to keeping your wedding flowers looking their best. Ideally you should have your flowers delivered on the morning of the wedding and keep your bridal and bridesmaid bouquets in a cool, shaded place while you dress. Later, at the reception you can revive your flowers by putting them into vases of water – they could even double up as table decorations!
