Summer is the season of weddings, and with the right flowers, you and your florist can create a celebration that guests will remember forever. No matter your theme or style, there are plenty of flowers to perfectly capture the spirit of your wedding. To help you get started, the team from Laurel Grove Florist in Port Jervis, NY, has put together the following guide.

Classic

For classic brides, you can never go wrong with lilies. Calla lilies make stunning bouquets, and you don’t even have to add more flowers. On their own, calla lilies are enough to make a statement and give you that classic touch of elegance.

Talk to your florist about hydrangeas, which are another classic option with a bit more attitude to them. They come in a variety of different colors, and their full appearance makes them great options for centerpieces and decorative arrangements. And, of course, roses are a staple for adding understated opulence.  

Creative

floristIf you want something a little bit different, consider adding garden plants, like succulents. These cute water storage plants have a compact appearance, so a little goes a long way. They’re perfect for adding to bouquets for an unexpected twist, and they’re a great addition to table centerpieces. Succulents have become popular choices for boho-chic or rustic-themed weddings.

When placed in a small terracotta pot, they can even be used for creative wedding favors for your guests. Likewise, kale is another choice for unique bouquets. This green foliage has rich purple hues in the center of its leaves, creating a beautiful contrast for any bouquet. Consider adding pieces of eucalyptus for a fragrant, eclectic edge.

Luxe

If you want to go all out with flowers, there are quite a few options for you and your florist to create an unforgettable wedding. Both peonies and ranunculus are known for their lush, bountiful blooms. These flowers come in a variety of eye-catching colors, allowing you to create lush arrangements, like floral waterfalls and table runners that incorporate color gradients.

Zinnias are another great choice for creating luxuriant arrangements and bouquets. Known for their bold appearance, these daisy-like flowers will add massive bursts of color to your wedding.
