At Woodside Florist we love to create stunning bridal bouquets.  We have put down below some of the general information about wedding flowers for your interest. 

Please call us for a quote on your wedding where we will find out exactly how you want your flowers to be.

For the Bride

Traditionally a bride’s wedding bouquet is made of white or cream flowers such as roses, lilies, gardenias and orchids. However contemporary brides are now carrying hand-tied posies made up of freshly cut, vivid and unusual flowers such as gerberas and sunflowers. They are also incorporating interesting fruit and vegetables in their flowers such as clusters of berries and bright red chillies. Whether its a traditional style or something more daring, we can help. Woodside Florist will even offer a package deal for you.

For the Bridesmaids

Bridesmaids' bouquets are usually all uniform and complementary to the bride's flowers. However, you may wish to make the maid/matron of honour's flowers a little more striking than the others to indicate her importance to you and the wedding. Don't forget a petal basket or dainty posy for your flower girl and a boutonniere for your ring bearer.

For the Groom and Groomsmen

The groomsmen are normally issued with a boutonniere, a single flower or rose bud worn on the suit. Traditionally, the groom's boutonniere is taken from a flower in the bride's bouquet symbolizing the bond between them.

For the Parents

It's customary to provide boutonnieres for the fathers of the bride and groom and a small spray of flowers for mothers of the bride and groom. The wedding corsages may be pinned on the bodice of the mothers' outfit or worn around the wrist. Many couples organise something similar for the grandparents also.

For Special Individuals

You may also want to put together a flower corsage for family members or friends that have helped you with the wedding preparations as a token of your appreciation. It's a nice touch but can be omitted if you're on a tight budget.

Flowers for the Ceremony

You'll need wedding flowers for the altar and the register signing table but if you're having a church wedding you may want to decorate the entrance, pew ends and window sills as well. It's best to check with the clergy beforehand to see what areas may be garlanded. 

For the reception

Reception venues generally provide floral decorations but if they don't, you can always use your ceremony flowers. The bridal table and the guest dining tables will require floral centerpieces or arrangements which we can help you with at woodside florist.  We recommend that they are not too large and obtrusive as to hinder table conversation. The cake table is usually adorned with a flower arrangement and some brides place the bride and bridesmaid's bouquets around the cake as an additional touch.
