Are you getting married this season and want to spread some peony magic in your wedding bouquets? Well, we have the perfect ideas in terms of peony bouquets for you to get inspired and make the best selection for your special day:
The teardrop bouquet arrangement:
A teardrop bouquet consisting of white roses, peonies, orchids, and some greenery make a stunning arrangement for a bride looking for some glamour and drama in her special day bouquet for the ceremony. The flowers all complement each other and make a sophisticated and romantic look work out for your special day. And the best part of course is – you get to make a cascade of flowers shaped like a teardrop.
The blue (just enough):
There are not many naturally blue wedding accents in the world and so if you do fancy a blue wedding bouquet for your ceremony, you’ve got to strive that much harder to achieve that look. There are florists that would suggest you use real touch silk flowers or even use dyed and fabric flowers for getting that perfect blue touch but if you don’t want anything artificial, you could always use some bright white peonies and tie them together with a raw, silk powder blue ribbon to get closer to the look that you’ve always wanted. The arrangement could work out perfectly for your bohemian or vintage wedding look easily. There is also an option of adding a satin ribbon, any rustic string or even some family handkerchief to make it look even more beautiful and stunning.
Simple and lush:
If you want something sophisticated yet different and eye-catching wedding bouquet arrangement for your special day ceremony, you could have some white peonies combine with greenery and wrap them up with a black and white striped ribbon to make the perfect statement. The whites of peonies and your bridal dress here complement perfectly the bright greens of greenery and blackness of the ribbon.
Elaborate and cascading:
A peony bridal bouquet arrangement that teams up cream peonies, garden roses, Sahara spray roses, and quicksand roses looks even more compelling when you throw in some clematis, dusty miller, cream ranunculus, trailing jasmine and polo garden roses to the whole mix. Use a dusty grey or silver ribbon to wrap the whole arrangement. You could also add some bay leaves, foliage, and olive foliage to take the whole arrangement to another level.
Wild and rustic:
Wild and rustic is a word that instantly pops into your mind when you see charm and gold peonies offset by seeded-grass heads, poppy buds and cabbage roses in a bridal bouquet combination for your wedding ceremony. The wild, loose, free-flowing bridal bouquet is sophisticated, stylish and has just enough charm to make a perfect statement for any wedding ceremony.
The feminine blush:
Use varying shades of pink and coral blossoms to bring the perfect touch of feminine elegance and style in term of the big day bridal bouquet. You could use some hot pink peonies and combine them with ruffled sweet peas to make the whole look work out quite magically. The bouquet is perfect to make a statement on that big day where all eyes are going to be on you, the dress you’re wearing and of course, your special bouquet flower arrangement.
Oversized and dramatic:
Use an oversized peony bouquet that holds elements of coral charm peonies and deep green hosta leaves for making that contemporary look really stand out in the wedding ceremony. The arrangement could be perfect to make a statement without going overboard and using just too many things to achieve a perfect look.
The golden elements
For achieving that glittery, golden and glamorous look for a wedding bouquet, use peonies in varying hues of bronze, gold and rose gold (warmer shades) to fill an arrangement. Peonies are tremendously versatile petals to give you an edge in terms of the wedding bouquet arrangements or even any other décor detailing. Many peony bouquets that are used today in wedding ceremonies have their fair share of beads, pearls, sparkle and glitter embellishments to give them the wow factor.
The pastel combination:
The pastel hues of peonies work beautifully when incorporated in wedding bouquets and centerpieces for the ceremony. You could mix the various pink pastel shades of these blossoms with roses and eucalyptus to achieve an undeniably charming and elegant look for a romantic wedding ceremony.
Peonies might get a little expensive when not in season and if you’re short on a budget, you could always use just a few pieces to add the perfect glamour to the wedding bouquet and that too with stretching your wedding expenses.
