Lovely Flowers For An All-Day Wedding

2022 is here, and in a little over a week, we’ll all be waltzing into February! So that means another new month for beautiful weddings buffed by lovely flowers!.

When choosing flowers to decorate your wedding, be aware that certain types of arrangements will last longer than others.

The following flowers are the best choices for an all-day outdoor wedding. These flowers can be made into centerpieces or used as accents scattered throughout the reception space.

Rose Arrangement

Roses come in a variety of shapes, sizes, and colors. They are well suited for small and large arrangements, and they last up to one week in water.

Roses greatly appreciate being cut underwater. Save the rose petals and create your own potpourri afterwards.

Carnations

The vase life of a carnation is 14 to 21 days. Refresh the water regularly and keep them in the proper environment. They thrive best in 50-65 degree temperatures, making them ideal for late spring or early summer weddings. 

Orchids

If you are looking for unique, large centerpieces that will last the entire wedding day, this is the flower type you want!

Orchids grow in many different shapes and colors, so your imagination is the only limit to what designs you can create with them. Your professional wedding florist and decorator can help you with unique ideas here too. Trim orchid stems and change their water every day, or at least every second day.

Lilies

With their waxy texture and lack of actual petals, Calla Lilies are pretty durable and do very well in high temperatures! A pro tip on lilies: remove the pollen pods to extend life and prevent staining. The "powder" will stain your fingers when removing, so use gloves or paper towels and just pluck them off as the flowers begin to open.
