When planning a wedding the bride will usually spend much time deciding on the flowers she will use as a theme through out the wedding. A hydrangea wedding bouquet is a popular choice as it offers a great variety of colours and produces a striking arrangement. The hydrangea lends itself well to a wedding as it can be as dominant or subtle a part of the brides overall image as desired. Most brides will have an idea as to how simple or luxurious they want their outfit to be and will then choose a bouquet which will compliment this.
Why Choose A Hydrangea Wedding Bouquet.
The hydrangea is native to southern and eastern Asia and north and south America. The hydrangea flowers bloom from early spring until late autumn, making it very obtainable for spring, summer or autumn weddings. The hydrangea wedding bouquet can be in almost any colour, although the plants come in different colours, the hues of the flowers are believed to be dependent on the pH of the soil, hence the wide variety of colours which can be found at florist today. The deepest blues are from more acidic soils, while the pink flowers are from the more neutral to alkaline soils.
Table Arrangements To Co-Ordinate Your Hydrangea Wedding Bouquet.
If you are choosing a hydrangea wedding bouquet you will probably want the other flowers to co-ordinate. The hydrangea is a good choice because the blooms are so striking that the tables and the isles for the ceremony can be made to look very impressive with very simple arrangements. Remember that as the flowers can be so large it is important to establish if your table arrangements will be low, so your guess can see each other over them or in long narrow vases so the guests can look around the vase and still be able to talk across the table to the other guests. If you are having simple white linen for the tables then any of the traditional hydrangea colours of blue, red, pink or purple would look very striking.
A Brides Maids Hydrangea Wedding Bouquet.
If you have chosen a hydrangea wedding bouquet, then you will need to decide what your brides maids or flower girls will carry. As the hydrangea comes in a stunning white flower, it looks lovely against any colour dresses, and can be a single flower, with green leaves around the base, tied with a suitably co-ordinating ribbon to finish.
Although the hydrangea wedding bouquet is not the most common, the rose and lily are still the traditional flowers of choice, the hydrangea is becoming increasingly popular because of its versatility and striking simplicity.
