Spring Wedding Flowers

Spring Wedding Inspiration, Wedding Planning

Are you planning a spring wedding? Have you selected the flowers for your bridal bouquet?  We recommend researching what flowers are in season in your local area.  This can ensure you have beautiful, full blooms for your ceremony and reception, in addition to saving you money in your budget.  You can go to your local farmers market and talk with growers or you can contact a florist to learn more about the flowers in your specific geographic region.

Since today we celebrate the first official day of spring, we are exploring the traditional spring wedding flowers.  They are full of colors and textures.  We have compiled a list of the most common blooms for you:

Bridal Inspiration - Green

Bridal Style and Color Inspiration

As today is St. Patrick's Day, my wedding inspiration leans towards shades of green.  I find myself drawn towards varying shades of green for wedding: the green found in the natural environment around you, the soft green of Spring, the bright green of Granny Smith Apples, and the rich green of emeralds.  Since Ireland is poetically considered the emerald isle due to its lush countryside, my inspiration board today is focused on the rich emerald jewel-tone.
