Let the flowers do the talking for you when it comes to wedding whimsy.
Delicate and floaty blooms bring that beautiful gathered from the garden feel to your wedding.
Here’s our top 5 flowers to add a touch of whimsy to your wedding flowers.
Cosmos
Light and truly whimsical, cosmos is a favourite here at Prim Petal Co. These babies dance above other flowers or play well on their own. They love heat in order to flower, so summer brides, cosmos is for you!
Locally available: Dec-April
Colours: white, yellow, pink, burgundy/brown
Delphinium
Delphinium is graceful addition to any wedding flower palette. They sit beautifully in ceremony features with a tall and floaty grace. We also love their butterfly-like petals and closed buds. Worthy alternatives a snapdragon and foxglove for a similar look outside delphinium season.
Locally available: Dec-March
Colours: white, blue, soft pink, mauve, purple.
Hellebore
Known as the winter rose, hellebore are in bloom when most other flowers are hibernating. Beautiful open faces and graceful stems that bend and move, make this flower a beautiful addition to a winter wedding.
Locally available: July- September
Colours: white, lemon yellow, pink, purple, burgundy, some bicolour varieties also available.
Queen Anne’s Lace
Soft and delicate green to white flower heads atop stalks that can, in some cases, grow sideways. Queen Anne’s Lace has become a bit of an obsession here at Prim Petal Co. We love them in a bud vase or a bouquet to add that touch of grace and movement.
Locally available: All year
Colours: white-green, chocolate-green
Sweet Pea
Sweet peas scream spring. Like Delphinium they have lovely butterfly-like petals and almost backward facing flowers. They tend on the shorter stem in size, so work well in bouquets and bud vases. We love adding their tendril-like foliage for that extra touch of whimsy in your wedding flowers
Locally available: September, October, November
Colours: white, pink, purple, mauve, red, peach
