Flower Power
Flowers add color, fragrance, and life to your wedding like nothing else can. Blossoms may enhance your beauty in the form of bridal bouquets and head wreaths. Sunny arrangements convert stony cathedrals into garden palaces and single flowers on men’s lapels or small arrangements on reception tables add a loving touch of nature’s splendor.
In addition to adding beauty to a ceremony, flowers also convey meanings and secret messages. Since the sixteenth century when women began carrying small posies of rosemary, rosewater, and marigolds, bridal bouquets have come to symbolize fertility, fidelity, and wishes of happiness.
Through these same traditions, many flowers continue to symbolize thoughts and feelings today. What messages of love and romance are you conveying with your wedding flowers?
Carnation. A Woman’s Love
Daisy. Innocence
Lilac. First Emotions of Love
Orchid. Rare Beauty
Rose. Love
Tulip. Eternal Love
