Popular wedding flowers for Spring 2014!

Hellooo Spring!


As the snow begins to melt, and trees begin to blossom, we move into a new season for weddings, Spring brings a change of colors and flowers!  We've complied a list of elegant, yet modern flowers that create stunning bouquets and centerpieces. We've captured a variety of flowers for all of our Spring bride's, so find the one that's perfect for YOU!

Thistle is a fun and modern flower that comes in a lot of varieties. It can be used for a textural aspect, but can also give off the natural, wildflower feel in any wedding. This flower is perfect for an outdoor wedding.

Japanese Mums can be considered a more "traditional" flower for Spring weddings, but what is great about them is their availability in bright colors. These mums are a full bodied flower, without being too fluffy.
 
Like Japanese Mums, Celosia comes in radiant colors that serve as a perfect accent to each arrangement. Alone with these bright hues, Celosia has a soft and velvety feel that textually acts more as a feather than a flower.

This flower could possibly be the most popular of the year. Why? Because it comes in this years radiant orchid, the 2014 Pantone Color of the Year. South American Vining Jasmine flower brings an exotic feel to your wedding, and on top of that it's extremely fragrant. Use this flower to feel like you're in paradise on your special day.


Want to change it up a bit? Try Green Trichelium it's the perfect choice for you! Include this in your arrangements to break up all the flowers and give it some texture. This deep emerald green is perfect for any season, but its a hot commodity this Spring!

Elegant Anemones...

If you like poppies you are bound to fall in love with these garden gems...

Quick lesson for the bride on Anemones: The name Anemone stems from Greek language meaning "wind flower" or "daughter of the wind" and the flower symbolizes "expectation". They are grown primarily in the late fall - late spring and are inexpensive in their season. Learn more about them here.


Clean and classic white:




When arranged with soft pink and white roses these anemones make a bold statement. Add feathers to spice up the black and white bouquet. These flowers are beautiful all by themselves, for a bride who want to keep it simple - one stem centerpieces in small, clear and opaque vases.


Anemones are easily team players.





Another great thing about this flower is its versatility. a hot trend this season is the sherbet color palette, with soft peaches, pinks, and yellows, the white anemone is a perfect addition.
