Show-stopping, statement florals are a unique, special way to pack a punch with your wedding decor! Whether playing a supporting role to your escort display or setting the scene as a ceremony backdrop, flowers have the potential to make a big impact on the design of your wedding.
Floral arrangements can create memorable vignettes for your wedding guests to experience AND will live on forever in your wedding photo collection! Dressing up your day with flowers doesn’t necessarily have to take up half of your wedding budget, either — talk to your florist about going more minimal on the arrangements for dinner reception and cocktail tables, opting for one or two “statement” pieces instead.
We’ve got plenty of examples to spark creativity — check out our top ten favorite ideas for floral artistry on your wedding day!
