Indian wedding
flowers
When
you decide to get married you may already have a theme in mind.
This could be colors, eras, or your favorite country or culture like India.
When you decide to have an Indian wedding you will need to stick to every
aspect that makes up an Indian wedding, and this includes having Indian
wedding flowers. Some of the many popular choices of flower for an Indian
wedding are sunflowers, tulips, orchids, and lilies. Usually just the one
type of flower is brought into the theme, but there is no reason why you
cannot have a combination of two or three flowers and even add interesting
accessories like ribbons, jewels, and ornamental butterflies on sticks.
Indian
wedding flowers are not difficult to come by as most florists will keep
the flowers that are predominantly used. If you do however want to add
other flowers in and maybe use flowers that are not in season, you will
have to have them especially brought in or made from silk. Sometimes silk
wedding flowers can be cheaper than fresh ones and the great thing is that
you keep them afterwards for years to come. You could even use your silk
Indian wedding flowers for your daughter’s wedding bouquet. Another reason
to use silk flowers is that it causes no staining problems for certain
venues and it prevents mishaps if someone is allergic to flowers.
To use
Indian wedding flowers will be exotic and colorful as most Indian themed
weddings make use of red and gold, but you can use almost any color scheme,
along with matching flowers in tall arrangements and arm bouquets. You
do not only have to use matching Indian wedding flowers for your bouquets,
reception arrangements, and ceremony arrangements. You can use contrasting
Indian wedding flowers to create even more colors, especially for a summer
or spring wedding that takes place outdoors.
Interesting
Indian wedding flowers can be made of simple natural grasses like wheat
and branches, and plain greens or neutral colors can be gorgeous. One of
the most popular plants that symbolize luck is bamboo, which will look
stunning in the flower arrangements. You can find plenty of ideas for your
designs online and in books. If you want to design your own Indian wedding
flowers you can also get great tricks and tips of the trade online and
view photo galleries to get ideas.
There
are also many wholesalers online, and if you know exactly which flowers
you want to use and if they are available at the time of year that your
wedding will be held, you can order in bulk from them well before the time.
This will ensure that you get only the best flowers and that you get them
at a much cheaper price than at a florist. Indian wedding flowers can also
be given as wedding gifts and can be combined with a cake or as part of
a hamper for the bride.
When you
are selecting your Indian wedding flowers you may find that many people
suggest specific types of arrangements or styles and even the kinds of
wedding flowers that you have to use, but you do not have to listen to
anyone. This special day is your day, and you are the one that must be
happy with every aspect of it. So, if the Indian wedding flowers do not
match with any color theme or the types of flowers are not traditional,
but you love them, then go for it. Your flowers can be the most stunning
part of your décor, so make sure that they are done beautifully.
The photographs will come to life and bring back fond memories in years
to come.
Another
way of bringing back memories is to preserve your wedding flowers using
a professional company that offers freeze drying and displaying techniques.
The flowers will be placed in a deep freeze and then once frozen the water
will be extracted from them. After this process has been completed, the
Indian wedding flowers are then brought back to room temperature very slowly
so as to ensure the flowers keep their natural shape and color. The vibrancy
and colors are also preserved with the help of a special treatment that
is used on them before and after the freeze drying. The companies will
then take each flower and design a table ornament like a lantern, a wall
box hanging, or a dome. You can then have it displayed as a constant happy
reminder to be treasured forever.
Enjoy
choosing your Indian wedding flowers for your romantic wedding and
make sure that you are totally happy with your selection long before the
wedding, as the flowers will have to be ordered and florists will want
to know what they are working with. You will have to give even more notice
if you are having silk flowers made, as this is a very time consuming process
to ensure that they look realistic.
