5 Things to Consider When Picking Your Wedding Flowers

There are many factors to consider when choosing your wedding flowers. Here at Wisteria Lane we want to make sure you are choosing the perfect flowers so we always ask our clients a couple of important questions to understand which bloom will work best!

Seasonal Flowers
First and foremost, it’s important to understand when the wedding is and have the flowers match the season. Any florist will recommend that you pick flowers that are local and in season to keep costs low and to ensure that the flowers are of the highest quality. Not sure what flowers are in season for your wedding? Email us!

Dress Style
We will always ask to see the bride’s wedding dress before making a decision about a bouquet. Knowing what type of style the dress is will help us make a decision of how to complement it with flowers. We like to think of the bouquet as an extension of your dress design and want to ensure that the two are a match made in heaven!

Venue Type
Similarly, it’s important for your florist to view the venue to ensure that the centerpieces, bouquets and overall flower decor fits the space and ambiance of your wedding venue. For example, you may not want to pick a modern design for a vintage ballroom.

Event Type
Will your wedding be casual? Formal? Will it be a sit down wedding or a cocktail-style party? These questions will inform us on how to design your space using flowers and help us elevate the design of your ceremony and reception.

Time of Day
The time of day will have an effect on which flowers we choose for your wedding day. For example, you may want to choose a brighter bloom to lighten up a space for an evening reception, and enhance it with candlelight.

Real Wedding: Daniela & Andrew

Summertime nuptials mean one thing: white-out florals! Daniela and Andrew’s Riviera Country Club wedding was one to be rivaled, chock full of fresh, white blooms. From the orchid adorned arch to the shades of white table arrangements, this wedding epitomizes class and sophistication. We love creating custom arrangements that speak to your big day—for Daniela and Andrew’s ceremony and reception, we wrapped their space in cascading orchids and roses. We adore a room filled with love and fresh florals… Congratulations to the two of you on a truly beautiful occasion!

Summer Soiree at Sunstone

Located on a stunning 52-acre Santa Ynez ranch, Sunstone Winery is a one of a kind estate and vineyard. This destination winery has beautiful architectural elements and rolling lawns, acting as the perfect blank—and rustic—canvas for any event. And in this instance, Sunstone served as the perfect choice for an outdoor summertime soiree!

The property is filled with majestic oak trees, creating an aura of simplicity and appreciation for nature. With this in mind, the floral design for this event was rooted in a fresh from the garden aesthetic. Lush white florals were complimented with pops of muted greenery and accented with fresh sprigs. In any garden-inspired floral design, it’s important to add layers and texture, which we accomplished through the abundant use of greenery. These arrangements mirrored the natural vineyard elements surrounding the villa.

Centering on nature and rustic charm, this summertime soiree was the perfect compliment to Sunstone Winery. EDE by Jacqueline designed a breathtaking space; from the linens, to the menus, to the detailing on the plates, the event was full of charm and character.
