Winter Wedding Flowers and Decor

Winter theme weddings can be uber chic and ethereal. Use these ideas to create your wonderland…

Color palette – new-fallen snow – use whites and creams accented with silver or gold; winter sparkle – ice blue or navy accented with silver; black tie- black is especially suited for a winter wedding when paired with white, silver or gold.
Go glam – deck your halls with crystal detailing for a sparkling winter effect- adorning linens and chair covers or sprinkled over table tops. The result is deliciously glam and oh so fab.
Liberal use of candle light – the glow will add warmth and elegance.
Holiday theme – decorate with potted evergreens, pine branches, wreathes, poinsettias, ornaments, bells, or twinkling white lights.
Added interest and texture – incorporate holiday greenery or tiny crystals into your arrangements.
Creative bouquets – instead of flowers, carry tea lights, votive candles or cascading bells.
Tossing alternative – have your flower girl throw silver glitter or sprinkle fake snow.

Spring Wedding Flowers and Decor

The tulips are blooming, the temperatures are rising – what a perfect time for a wedding! Get inspired with these ideas for spring flowers…

Color palette – green and white – an elegant accompaniment to a garden setting; yellow and green -another fresh, natural color pairing; preppy – combine hot pink with green or mango (think polka dots and gingham); chocolate brown – this trendy hue works well for spring – pair with pale blue or pink.
Go wild with patterns – create a playful effect – think gingham, polka dots, eyelet lace, swiss dots and stripes
Add some greens – grasses and greenery are a natural for outdoor garden settings. Drape over arbors and incorporate in arrangements
Creative containers – put your arrangements in simple, homespun containers like wicker baskets, watering cans, teapots, or urns.
Potted plants – potted arrangements create a natural, organic look. Best of all, you can plant them for a timeless reminder of your wedding

Summer Wedding Flowers and Decor

Set the stage for a sunny summer wedding with vibrant colors and inspirations from the great outdoors…

Color palette – bright and bold – hot pink and deep red or mango and fuschia; nautical – navy and white is a clean summer classic, accent with touches of yellow, red or gold; seaside – combine aqua with beige, peach or white
Go casual – summer weddings lend themselves to a casual decor scheme – fitting of a backyard barbeque. Think checked table clothes, benches and picnic tables.
Go natural – incorporate natural decor elements like fruits, vegetables, even insects (like ladybugs or dragonflies, not necessarily roaches!)
Get lit – light up an outdoor evening reception with lanterns or torches.
Fruits – fruits like lemons and limes look whimsical and chic when filled in tall clear vases
For a beach look – incorporate shells, sand, and sea glass in your arrangements

Or create a breezy, airy look with white on white – using roses, stephanotis, calla lilies, snowball mums and daisies – and incorporate a touch of blue – like blue hydrangea.

Fall Wedding Flowers and Decor

Get autumn-spiration with these flowers and decor ideas with a fall twist…

Color palette – colors of the season – adhere to mother nature’s fall color palette: reds, oranges, browns, rusts, and yellows; jewel tones – make a rich, interesting twist to the traditional autumn color scheme; mix with metallics – gold, copper, bronze – for added pizzazz
Back to nature – use simple decor to subtly enhance the season’s natural bounty. Use the autumn harvest for inspiration; think gourds, pumpkins, squash, gold dipped fall leaves, bales of hay, jugs of cider…you get the idea.
Go fall glam – you’re not confined to rustic and casual in the fall. Create a posh autumn ambiance, and drape lush velvet (a traditional fall/winter fabric) in a rich chocolate brown or gold throughout your reception space. Accent the scene with antique broaches, crystal candelabras and stemware.
Autumn harvest – add pears, apples, cranberries to your arrangements
Natural texture – incorporate leaves, acorns, sprays of wheat
Creative containers – hollow out pumpkins or realistic fake ones, or use stained wooden boxes, terra cotta pots, or rustic lanterns
Tossing alternative – have your flower girl toss leaves or acorns instead of flower petals
