They opt for sustainable, timeless styles and combine the elegant look of flowers with the complex and beautiful. Read on, for here, we’re going to take you through how to incorporate the beauty of preserved floral arrangements for your big day, with some little tips here and some humor there.

Why Dried Flower Bouquets?

Just consider a dried flower bouquet wedding; for years, they were only a part of home decoration. But now they can perform at anyone’s wedding, as they are the obvious choice. Here’s why:

• Longevity: Like fresh flowers that wither away, these come dried (just like our love is expected to last forever!). They’re perfect keepsakes.
• Sustainability: Many environmentally aware couples cannot do without them. Eco-friendly measures are taken when using preserved floral arrangements to reduce wastage.
• Budget-Friendly: You will also find that some of these eco-friendly technologies will be more cost-effective than their traditional counterparts for several reasons, such as they don’t need to be stored in a fridge or freezer or run out when needed.
• Aesthetic Appeal: Adding dried flowers to a centerpiece gives a vintage, rustic feel and works well with a modern or boho-style wedding.

Trending Dried Flower Bouquets for Weddings

There are different types of dried flower bouquet wedding, and Singaporean brides have been very innovative whenever they use them for their weddings. Here are a few ideas to inspire you:

Rustic Romance

We’re talking about soft Beige, cream, and brown tones. The bouquets are made from pampas grass, bunny tails, and dried roses. They are classy and rustic.

Vintage Vibes

We recommend preserved lavender, baby’s breath, and eucalyptus for an ageless theme. Garnish it with lace ribbon for that truly 1950s appeal.

Tropical Twist

This proved that bright, blow-preserving floral arrangements perfectly fit Singapore’s tropical feel. Mix dried protea with preserved palm leaves to add color to your home.

Monochromatic Elegance

Try it with a single-toned floral combination. Hearing muted colors like dusty pink or nearly white are low profile but have a great impact. They met such accessories as preserved hydrangeas, bleached ruscus, and dried carnations.

How to Use Dried Flowers in a Wedding?

Preserved flowers are not only used in the bride’s bouquet. They can elevate every aspect of your wedding:

Table Centerpieces

At your reception table, opt for dried floral displays instead of fresh flowers. Include candles and fairy lights to create the look of an ideal home.

Boutonnieres and Corsages

These little extras of dried flowers, such as pin cushions for the groom and bridal party, provide continuity of style. Given the high humidity in Singapore, they also do not show signs of wearing out soon.

Arch Decorations

Pampas grass, preserved eucalyptus, and dry flowers can be used in your wedding arch. Damn right, and the perfect place for both men and women to utter those famous words “I do”.

Wedding Favors

Miniature dried flowers, such as bouquets or small vases full of preserved flowers, are the perfect gifts for your guests. Bonus: Your guests will remember your wedding for years.
