Summer weddings are a time of stunning colours, warm sunshine, and an abundance of beautiful flowers. This season is the perfect opportunity to go bold and wild with your colour palette or opt for a more muted option; there are plenty of flowers to choose from. The right blooms for your special day can make all the difference, adding to the overall ambience, creating stunning visual memories and bringing your wedding to life.

What flowers are best for a summer wedding?

Incorporating summer flowers into your wedding not only adds beauty and colour but also helps to create an atmosphere that's in harmony with the season. Work with your florist to find the best blooms that reflect your personality and match the mood you want to set for your big day. It is also the height of the season in British flower farming, so ask your florist to aim to use locally grown, organic flowers. This will not only provide you with an authentic, seasonal alternative but also offer a sustainable choice with the freshest, most unique species.

How to choose your summer wedding flowers?

Gathering inspiration from sources like Pinterest can be incredibly helpful in visualising your wedding vision. During discussions, I love exploring details like your dress style, wedding party colours, and most importantly, your unique personality to create a cohesive and personalized design. Understanding your preferences, likes, and dislikes, as well as the venue where you’ll say “I do” plays a crucial role in curating floral styles that complement and enhance the space. By delving into these details, we can craft a bespoke floral experience that mirrors your individuality and brings your dream wedding to life.
