Seasonal Flowers

I have found a couple of great sites giving fantastic information on seasonal flowers. This is a really great help when choosing your flowers. Your venue, decor co ordinator or florist – whoever you are using will also be able to give you great advice. Sometimes is nice to have done a little research yourself.

“Spring brides should also consider floral arrangements in their hair rather than a tiara. Small blooms can be attached to hair combs, slides or headbands and co-ordinated with button holes. Best to keep hairpieces small though as they can look at bit overpowering not to mention expensive!”

The Best Wedding Articles is a great site for information on every wedding topic you can think of. There is an article for everything. I got the quotes in this article out of one of the articles called: Summer and Spring Wedding Flower by Emily Tanner

“Soft yellows and lilacs look great together in a bouquet and can really capture the essence of spring”
