๐ŸŒธ How to Choose Your Wedding Flowers ๐ŸŒธ

 

One of the questions we're asked most often is: "What flowers should I choose if I want to preserve my bouquet?"


The answer is simple: choose the flowers you love.
Your wedding flowers should tell your story. Maybe that's the Peonies your grandmother grew in her garden, the Roses that remind you of home, the Hydrangeas from childhood summers, or the luxurious Orchids you've always dreamed of carrying down the aisle. Perhaps you're planning a romantic English garden wedding, a wild Irish-inspired celebration, or even the fairytale Disney princess bouquet you've imagined since you were little.
The most meaningful bouquets are those chosen with intention.


When planning your flowers, think about:

โœจ Flowers that hold personal memories

โœจ Blooms that reflect your style and personality

โœจ Colours that complement your wedding aesthetic

โœจ Seasonal flowers available at the time of your wedding

โœจ Preservability and longevity

The good news? Between your florist and ourselves, we can help guide you towards flowers that will:


๐ŸŒฟ Photograph beautifully on your wedding day

๐ŸŒฟ Hold special meaning for years to come
 ๐ŸŒฟ Preserve as well as possible in resin as this is a lifetime investment

The key is planning ahead and communicating your vision early. Your preserved flowers become more than a keepsake: they're a daily reminder of one of the most important days of your life.

Remember: trends come and go, but flowers chosen because they mean something to you will never go out of style.
