TIE THE KNOT WITH BEAUTIFUL BLOOMS

Weddings are intertwined with flowers.Ever since the ancient Greeks where brides wore crowns of fresh flowers and plants, the two have been synonymous.
The bridal bouquet also had its origins in ancient times, when it was believed that a bride should carry a bunch of aromatic herbs and garlic to fend off bad spirits.Sage was often included in the bouquet as it meant the bridal party would be blessed with wisdom.  In the Victorian era, flowers were assigned their own meaning and brides often carried posies which conveyed a coded message for the groom. 
The term ‘flower girl’ also originates from Victorian England where a young girl would sprinkle petals on the path in front of the bridal party as they walked to the church.This gesture was to bring happiness and flowers into the lives of the newly weds. 
Today, there are no hard and fast rules.From traditional white arrangements to modern creations in vivid reds and oranges, the choice is huge with the only real constraint being budget, of course.You will probably have a good idea as to what you want for your wedding flowers, but it’s advisable to talk to an experienced florist who will have sound, practical advice.
To suit their intended theme, many brides have definite ideas about what flowers they want.However, it is important to think about which flowers are in season.Flowers are a seasonal product, yet some wedding planners don’t take this into account.Selecting in-season flowers make sense…. and cents.
A good florist will be able to advise on creating the look that you want using in-season flowers.They’ll make sure that your wedding won’t be second-best just because it won’t be the season for daffodils !There are masses of different types of flowers and foliage in a myriad colours, plus a host of different accessories such as vases, ribbons and fabrics, that the florist can create whatever your heart desires. 
Ask your florist about what types of flowers are best for certain purposes.  For example, gardenias look beautiful and smell gorgeous.Yet they bruise and go brown very easily, and consequently won’t look beautiful in a bouquet for very long.Stephanotis has similar characteristics, with delicate, fragrant flowers.These flowers will wilt and go brown in just a few hours if they are close to body heat, so although they are popular for bridal bouquets, the reality is that they are not really suitable.
Ennis Flowers in Perth owner, Sarah Ennis, believes that it is important that there a good relationship between the florist and the bride, based on trust and integrity.  “A good florist will advise on quality, durability and pricing of wedding flowers as well as the most appropriate blooms to complement the colour scheme and theme.” 
Some of the most popular types of flowers used at weddings include roses, lilies, daisies, tulips and hydrangeas.”It’s always important to look at practical options,” she says, “for example having a February wedding overflowing with roses may not be the best idea as roses are expensive around Valentine’s Day and the quality can be inconsistent.”
Since she’s been a florist in Perth for years, she has a wealth of experience in advising on what are the best flowers to use in a bridal bouquet. It’s recommended that the florist see a picture of the wedding dress as well as a piece of the fabric in order to choose the best types of flowers and colours.For example, she suggests a trailing bouquet or tied bunch of long stems for a full-length gown and a more compact posy or single bloom to complement a knee-length skirt.A bouquet that draws attention to the centre of the body should be avoided by fuller-figured women, whilst a long, trailing bouquet will make a bride appear to be thinner and taller.
Wedding flowers are often one of the focal points of the celebration.From the simplest celebration to the most elaborate, fancy affair, professional advice on wedding flowers in Perth will ensure it’s the best day of your life.
