Floral Wedding Details We Love

If there’s one wedding element that has stood the test of time, it’s the florals!

Flowers and botanicals have been an important part of weddings for centuries. Not only do they add a touch of elegance and colorful whimsy to every special occasion, but each bloom also signifies important elements of a marriage, from love and passion to fertility and prosperity. Florals can also be incorporated into just about any detail in your wedding planning, adding beauty to every corner of your special day. Read on to get inspired by the many ways that you can incorporate your favorite blooms into your Best Day Ever beyond your bouquet.

Your wedding signage is one of the first things that your guests will see, so you might as well set the tone with a floral-themed display! We love the idea of adding flower boxes to your welcome signs so that your guests can immediately appreciate the romantic vibes of the floral designs you selected for the big day.

You’re probably used to seeing florals decorating the arches and backdrops of your ceremony, but what about the aisle itself? Living aisles have become hugely popular over the past few years, and it’s not hard to see why. These floral aisles are opulent and eye-catching, setting the tone for the rest of the gorgeous ceremony.

Bloom Bars

Looking for a unique wedding favor that your guests will cherish? Consider making a flower bar! This trending floral detail allows your guests to create their own beautiful bouquets to take home and remember this extra special occasion. Ask your florist to include plenty of florals that were featured in your bouquet and decor along with some greenery, then provide paper cones or simple vases for your guests to take their creations home in.

Wedding Cake

In addition to florals, wedding cakes are among some of the most longstanding symbols of a wedding. In lieu of traditional wedding cake toppers, consider decorating your wedding cake with flowers instead! Work with both your baker and your florist to create a showstopping masterpiece that perfectly complements the rest of your wedding decor … and adds the sweetest twist to your wedding traditions.

Floral "Confetti"

Many wedding venues have restrictions in place for tossing glitter or rice at the newlyweds due to environmental impacts and cleaning concerns. But you don’t have to skip the tradition completely. Instead, consider using floral "confetti"! Hand out biodegradable flower petals to your guests and let them shower you with love (and roses) as you walk down the aisle. It makes for a great photoshoot and an unforgettable memory you and your new spouse will cherish for life.

Bud Vases

Bud vases have been enjoying plenty of time in the spotlight at weddings lately, and for good reason. While classic table bouquets are a timeless decoration, bud vases allow you to customize your wedding tables exactly how you want them. Bonus points: They also make for great take-home gifts and wedding favors! Mix all of your favorite florals in small bud vases for a delicate and whimsical arrangement.

We can’t forget the final and most important visual element of a wedding day: the wedding dress! Incorporating floral appliques and embroidery into your wedding dress is a gorgeous way to add whimsy and ethereal, fairytale-esque charm to your wedding day. Floral lace on its own is a timeless and classic design that subtly nods to your bouquet, or you can consider bold and colorful embroidery for a sweet and modern twist.

Your Flower Girls

Finally, we can’t talk about wedding florals without talking about your flower girls! There are few moments in a wedding more adorable than the moment that your little flower girls come walking down the aisle, tossing petals and getting the crowd ready for the moment that the bride enters the ceremony. Adding additional floral elements to your flower girl’s outfits are a great way to enunciate the sweetness of their role and play into your floral-themed wedding.
