How often does one hear of a wedding without flowers? Extremely seldom. Indeed, flowers are an integral part of a wedding. The question is whether they are used in abundance or kept to a minimum, depending on the preferences of the bride and groom.
If used creatively, an innovative floral designer can certainly make a statement on your behalf. Whether you wish to convey a sense of romance or perhaps evoke a sense of sophistication, share your ideas with your floral designer and decorator.
The many roles that flowers play at nuptials :
- Bridal bouquet.
- Groom’s corsage.
- Bridesmaids’ posies.
- Groomen’s corsages.
- Wedding car décor.
- Romantic décor at the wedding ceremony.
- Part of a backdrop, either on stage or a photobooth.
- An installation at the entrance to the ballroom.
- Pedestals that line the wedding aisle.
- A component of the wedding cake design.
At present, in view of the scarcity of international flights, why not support homegrown flowers by local farmers. Of good quality and in a range of blooms, doing so will not only help sustain such farmers but also contribute to the local economy. And in this economic climate, every bit helps.
