From silk flowers to edible flowers, who can possibly envision a wedding ceremony without an abundance of flowers? Colourful, fragrant blooms have symbolized our emotions, beautified our venues, and spoken an international language of love through the ages. The presence of flowers in matrimonial bliss has stood the test of time, allowing lovers to savour their timeless appeal and fashionistas to be enchanted by their charisma.
From the days of the ancient Greeks, flowers and love have been inextricably intertwined. In those days, a simple crown worn by the bride was an essential of the ceremony. Garlands, single blooms, or poesies were made by the bridesmaids as a thank-you notes are today for all guests.
As time passed, flowers carried the message across the continents.

In England, the Victorians even created a new language of love by way of flowers, and this language was called floriography.
Today couples select flowers with a different set of criteria. Some coordinate them to a specific theme. For instance, they may use exotic bold flowers and carry such a motif throughout the wedding. Others prefer to play with colour combinations or stay with the same colour using different types of sizes, shapes, and heights to create interesting arrangements and unexpected nuances. Exploring the diverse scents of these blooms is also a fun way to bring new dimension to your setting. Whether you wear flowers in your hair, accent your wedding dress, or decorate your cake, flowers make a statement like no other.
