White flowers – the picture of purity, softness and simplicity. White daisies in dainty posies or by the armful – what could be fresher? Huge bouquets of white roses in voluptuous arrangements around the reception venue in glass containers.
Jasmine in trailing strands in a bouquet will add perfume, and white violets in tiny vases dotted along tables will add a touch of daintiness. White orchids will be elegant with their almost plastic ‘perfect – ness’ in tall vases arching over the silverware. Australian natives including flannel flowers and grevillea would look elegant with grey/silver foliage and tied with grey or silver ribbon. In a garden setting large bowls or ponds with white water lilies look almost luminous shimmering in the sunlight.
Imagine walking through a field amongst the white trunks of silver birch trees and at your feet white wildflowers or narcissus (daffodils or perfumed jonquils) – what an enchanting setting for your photographs or reception.

I am really drawn to the second photo (on the pale pink background) – but I have never seen fresh flowers like that before. Are they fake?
They do look fake due to the pistils. I haven’t seen ones that large. The closest variety of flower that looks like the photo are the peonies, especially the Sarah Bernhardt variety http://www.wholeblossoms.com/28-wholesale-peonies.html. They’re gorgeous flowers.
It’s amazing. Great! So beautiful floral bouquet. It’s really fantastic.
I love the first bouquet, it has a somewhat exotic look which I’m really attracted to. White flowers are so elegant, and also a safe wedding color choice. Thanks for sharing!
