Spring is a beautiful time to get married. The weather is sunny but still mild, the grass is green, and popular wedding flowers are freshly blooming. In fact, so many flower options are in season, it can be hard to narrow down your choices. To make it easier, here are some of the floral varieties that are most commonly used to celebrate nuptials. 

What Are Some Common Spring Wedding Flowers?

1. Peonies

These flowers pack a lot of texture but are still soft and delicate. They make the perfect focal point in a bouquet arrangement but also work well on their own and create a simple design. Their pastel coloring also allows them to seamlessly blend with other flowers in differing shades. 

2. Gerbera

This daisy has become increasingly popular in recent years. Brides love it for its simple look and wide-ranging color scheme, which includes royal blue, bright orange, yellow, hot and pale pink, white, and red. Use a single color to create minimalist centerpieces, or combine several shades for a modern bouquet. 

3. Roses

They are a classic for a reason. Roses are the most romantic wedding flower, no matter which shade you choose. They blend fairly easily with most other blooms, or you could select two to three colors and use them in the centerpieces.

4. Hellebores

These sweet flowers are in bloom from late February to May and will add a touch of whimsy wherever they are used. Their coloring ranges from a soft pink to a deep purple and will usually have a touch of green or black spreading from the center. However, it’s their unique swirl and splatter patterns that have made them popular wedding flowers.

5. Forsythia

Yellow is a commonly used wedding scheme color because it provides a needed bright pop to offset a beautiful green backdrop. The wood stems that Forsythias are known for, make them ideal for tall reception arrangements, but they would also be a wonderful addition in a bouquet when used to complement softer flowers, like roses, daffodils, or begonias.
