Flowers

Flowers provide mood in a wedding.
With flowers you can decorate your home, the church, the reception location, tables and wedding car. You can fill your bouquet with flowers. Choosing the right flowers needs accounting for season, style and, last but not least, the type of church.
The most common colour is white, but every choice you make is fine.
Choose the florist at least three months before the wedding and plan with him every detail of the ceremony. Showing the florist an image of the dress, the location of the ceremony and the reception location can help choosing the right flowers.

It’s important not to overdo things.

An important church hosts several weddings in a day, it’s not uncommon to share decorations with other couples and save expenses.

Bouquest usually come in various shapes, size and fashions: round and small, with delicate flowers , big and open, cascading, arm sheaf with tulips or roses.

The florist will aid you choosing the right flowers for your bouquet if you show him the dress and style you like.

It’s also possible have a crepe paper flower bouquet handcrafted. This type of bouquet looks just like and ordinary one but, if handled carefully, will last a lifetime.

The day of the wedding the florist will hand the bouquet at the brides’ home. Both families will receive the boutonnière. The term boutonnière indicates the flowers that are being worn by the groom, best man and closest member of the family.

Tossing of the bridal bouquet at the end of the ceremony is still a common practice. Many northern countries use to distribute amongst friends the flowers taken from the bouquet while enveloping them in small pieces of the brides’ tulle veil.

The florist will also prepare and place decorations for the reception halls.
