Picking the Best of the Bunch!

I don't think enough brides go seasonal when choosing their wedding flowers!

The UK has an abundance of beautiful, homegrown flowers that clearly aren't being used to their full potential, and, on top of supporting local flower growers, you really can create a gorgeous bouquet that's unique to you.

Why not be creative and grow your own, venture into the countryside and pick your own flowers, or arrange them yourself? You could even incorporate it into your hen-do!!

Here's the best seasonal delights that the UK has to offer...



Spring

For a beautiful, country cottage feel use delphinium, sweet peas, peonies, ranunculus, and cherry blossom, or for a more modern look go with tulips and daffodils.

Summer

If you want to bring out the sunshine try dahlias, marigolds, and pretty carnations, but if you'd rather be boho chic try lavender, freesia, and gypsophila.

Autumn

If you fancy a dramatic, autumnal feel, try calla lillies, amaryllis, hypericum, and black magic roses, or if you'd rather a more girly take on autumn, why not go for pretty nerine, hydrangeas, and gladioli.

Winter

For a luxurious, wintery wedding, without the Christmas vibe, use pine cones, snow berries, bouvarida, hellebore, and fern, and if you want to add a bit of Christmas flare add traditional holly, ivy,

and trailing winter berries.

If you want to make your wedding flowers really personal to you, you could opt for flowers that have traditional meanings. They could mean something to you and your partner, incorporate

promises to your husband-to-be, or represent things that you wish to have in your marriage.

Here's just a few...

Rose - Love & Happiness

Apple Blossom - Good Fortune

Heather - Good Luck

Gardenia - Joy

Ivy - Fidelity

Myrtle - Love

Snowdrop - Hope

Violet - Faithfulness

Honeysuckle - Generosity
