Romantic

For the romantic, roses have no equal. White and pastel roses hearken back to the romance of the Victorian age, while red roses symbolize passion, courage, and abiding love.

Carrying a single stem rose or lilly, rather than a elaborate bouquet and opting for bud vases on the tables rather than pricey centerpieces is one way to save some money.

Alternately, tying bundles of lavender, baby’s breath, or daisies with a satin ribbon can give the bride a lush, but inexpensive bouquet.

Simple

Simple but elegant floral designs exhibit good taste. Lavender bundles, their stems bound in brown twine.

Greenery like ferns accented by a single rose, or random wildflowers can all be lovely ways to declare the joy of the day without going overboard.

If you don’t have the budget for these flowers, simulate the exotic by choosing less expensive flowers in bold, tropical colors.

Seasonal

You may want to choose amaryllis and holly for a winter wedding, tulips and lilacs in Spring, daisies and iris in the Summer, and mums and lilies in Fall.
