Winter Wedding Flowers<\/p><\/div>\n

With winter weddings<\/strong> picking up in popularity among our New Jersey<\/strong> wedding<\/strong> couples, we see our wedding venue<\/a><\/strong> decorated in beautiful wintry splendor. A top<\/strong> wedding trend <\/strong>we\u2019ve noticed is that the cold months don\u2019t limit the types of flowers and greenery used in wedding d\u00e9cor.<\/strong> In fact, we\u2019re seeing a beautiful array of winter-season flowers, and creative use of lighting and color to make a winter wedding<\/strong> gorgeous in a wedding ballroom<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

A key to your wedding planning ideas <\/strong>is using flowers that are in-season, plentiful and lower-priced so that you can incorporate more of them in your wedding d\u00e9cor<\/a>. <\/strong>Our top <\/strong>New Jersey<\/strong> floral designers<\/strong> suggest the following seasonal flowers for winter months:<\/p>\n

Alstromeria, Amaryllis, Anemone, Asiatic Lily, Bells of Ireland, Camellias, Carnations, Casa Blanca Lily, Cosmos, Cyclamen, Daffodil, Forget-me-nots, Ginger, Holly berry, Jasmine, Narcissus, Orchids, Pepperberry, Phlox, Poinsettia, Protea, Queen Anne\u2019s Lace, Ranunculus, Roses, Star Gazer Lily, Star of Bethlehem, Statice, Sweetpea, Tulip and more.<\/p>\n

Cymbidium orchids are extremely popular as a top wedding flower<\/strong> for decorating your wedding venue<\/a><\/strong> centerpieces and other d\u00e9cor items.<\/p>\n

You also have access to the top wedding flowers<\/strong> available year-round: <\/em>Baby’s Breath, Bachelor’s Button, Calla Lily, Carnations, Delphinium, Eucalyptus, Gardenia, Gladiolus, Heather, Lily of the Valley, Orchid, Rose, Scabiosa.<\/p>\n

Flowers in Color<\/em><\/p>\n

You could choose to decorate your wedding venue<\/strong> with flowers in all-white arrangements, to coordinate with a snowy atmosphere outside, or you could follow the new d\u00e9cor trend<\/strong> of using cream-colored flowers known as \u2018antique white\u2019 for a romantic effect. The range of creams in natural flowers include ivories and pale blush colors such as a very soft pink to add just a touch of color to the cream-colored palette that may even coordinate with the colors of your wedding ballroom<\/strong> better than stark white.<\/p>\n

Or, follow another wedding flower trend<\/strong> and choose florals in bright, jewel colors such as vivid purples and ruby reds. Our brides like to use reds especially as a pop of color in the top trend of planning a black and white motif for their winter wedding. <\/em><\/strong>Among the top wedding ideas<\/strong> now is to avoid the \u2018red and white\u2019 color scheme that is considered a bit too clich\u00e9 for winter weddings,<\/strong> and instead add some depth to floral pieces with richer merlot or cranberry hues in varying shades, mixed with cream-colored flowers.<\/p>\n

Mix Flower Styles<\/em><\/p>\n

Add some extra visual appeal to your winter wedding flowers<\/strong> by having your floral designer combine different types of flowers such as\u00a0 calla lilies, roses, orchids and anemones\u2026flowers with different shapes and petals that look lovely in elevated centerpiece.<\/p>\n

Add in greenery for effect<\/em><\/p>\n

When you add in unique greenery to your floral designs, you add fullness, height, and varying textures that make your flower choices stand out against a natural backdrop, and couples planning budget weddings<\/strong> like to increase the amount of greenery in each display to stretch their wedding d\u00e9cor<\/strong> for greater effect. Some popular greenery includes sage green lamb\u2019s ear and silvery Dusty Miller leaves to provide a touch of wintry shine in arrangements. Eucalyptus is also a popular greenery in floral designs for winter.<\/p>\n

Add in branches<\/em><\/p>\n

Add height to your floral arrangements, and make your wedding ballroom<\/strong> even more glamorous with tall willow branches in their natural wood color, or have your floral designer spray-paint them a glittery white, silver or gold to bring out the sparkle in your wedding ballroom<\/strong> table settings. Branches may also feature little pops of color via holly berries, pepperberries, hypericum, white snowberries or other wintry effect berries found in nature.<\/p>\n

Evergreen and holly may be the first winter greenery you think of, but these are now best used as subtle accents to more elegant, flower-filled d\u00e9cor pieces, not set as the primary look to wedding flower arrangements. <\/strong>Our couples seek more creativity in their floral designs, so they\u2019re avoiding the \u2018expected\u2019 winter flowers and greenery, and mixing up their d\u00e9cor items with more unique floral touches.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
