Think Outside the Bouquet

Beyond the most established uses for wedding flowers - room and table decor, boutonnieres, corsages - flowers of all varieties are being used to enhance your special day in many non-traditional ways. View photos of these items by visiting Grand Rapids wedding flower specialist at Grand Rapids Dream Weddings.

For example:

  • Welcome gifts for out-of-town guests and members of the bridal parties (Welcoming them in their hotel rooms or guest rooms)
  • Thank you gifts for those people who make the bride and groom's day special
  • Rehearsal dinner and wedding brunch decor
  • Decorations for wedding transportation
  • Floating arrangements for ponds or pools
  • Accessories for the bride's hair, in some cases replacing the more traditional veil
  • Small nosegay or cluster of flowers for the mothers of the bride and groom to hold instead of the traditional shoulder corsage that easily get crushed due to excess hugging


Brew’s Tip of the Month
For your wedding, ask your florist to create guest table centerpieces with 4-5 separate clusters of flowers so that each couple can take a part of the centerpiece home.
