With stunning shades of white, pink and cream, arrangements with peonies can be designed to complement your colour scheme or even your outfits. It’s no surprise that peony roses are such a best-seller for brides-to-be; they will truly impress at any spring or summer wedding.

Arguably the world’s most iconic and favourite flower, what would a wedding be without a rose or two in sight? As such a timeless classic, roses will suit any wedding theme and colour scheme. Single roses and a little greenery will make perfect boutonnières for the groomsmen or elegant corsages for the bridesmaids. If you want to set the right tone on your wedding day, why not surprise your bride with a romantic bouquet of dozen red roses.

Lilies

Another timeless and classic flower for any big day is lilies. These stunning blooms are the perfect addition to any mixed wedding bouquet, or even in an arrangement on their own. Available in a variety of shades and tones such as ivory, cream, whites and pinks, lilies truly would complement any bride on her wedding day and can make stunning arrangements for bridesmaids alike.

Tulips

Tulips recently have become increasingly popular for weddings. These understated spring blooms have stunningly large heads and are available in some of the most incredible, vibrant shades of red, pink, purple, blue and yellow. These are perfect to add a little splash of colour to any arrangement or make the perfect bouquet alone for a more contemporary feel. Our Isabella bouquet is a stunning example of a wedding bouquet with Tulips used to elevate the arrangement. Due to the variety of colours, different coloured arrangements can be used between bride and bridesmaids.

Chrysanthemums

chrysanthemum

Chrysanthemums, like tulips, have become a recent wedding favourite, with many brides now shifting towards more simplistic yet vibrant arrangements – think simple yet still eye-catching. These blooms, which are native to North-Eastern Europe and North America, can also be used to create the most stunning arrangements for on reception tables. Striking colours add a pop of colour and brightness to even the most neutral of palettes.

Dahlia

dahlia

These stunning and sometimes absolutely massive blooms are a popular wedding flower too. As dahlias are available in a variety of shades, they are easy to tailor any personal preference. Just few of these big flowers and some greenery and you will have a grand wedding bouquet that is sure to wow. Because of their size, they are not the most suitable for corsages or boutonnières, but they are ideal to include in centrepieces as well.

Anemone

anemone

A new modern favourite, anemones are a gorgeously delicate flower that will create stunning wedding bouquets. They don’t do too well with excessive heat, so if you are planning an outdoor wedding in the sun, you might see these beauties wilt quite quickly if the florist hasn’t water-picked the stems. Anemones are a contemporary choice, with their thin petals and dark centres. Though often used for accents, anemones on their own will make a stunning bouquet.
