I always advise my clients to make sure the flowers they choose are in season at the time of the wedding. Not only does this help keep costs down, but they also have a more natural and seasonal look on the day. Brides can sometimes struggle more with their choice of flowers for a winter wedding. It’s easy to feel restricted to traditional, year-round wedding flowers like lilies or roses when, unlike in spring or summer, there isn’t that much inspiration to be had from your surroundings. However, there are still plenty of beautiful blooms to choose from at this time of year that are perfect for a winter wedding – check out some of my favourites…

Last Friday I was very excited to receive a beautiful bouquet from David Austin Roses showcasing their bridal rose collection. The roses are unique in that they don’t have a classic petal arrangement, but instead have blowsy layers that look fabulous both in bud and as they open to reveal a rosette silhouette. Not only are they absolutely stunning, but they also have a delicate fragrance that is subtle enough for wedding arrangements without being overpowering.

I would always recommend using flowers that are in season at the time of your wedding. They’re more readily available and can often be sourced locally, meaning they’re less expensive and also more eco-friendly. Check out some of my favourite spring blooms that are just perfect for weddings… (more…)
