Your Southampton wedding - flowers for the venue

By: Nita Hannibal

Pedestal flower arrangements are incredibly popular. They work wonderfully at the ends of rows of seating to create structure as well as decoration, or on either side of the entranceway. A cheaper, but just as beautiful alternative is to opt for topiary trees instead.

If you are looking to save money on your wedding flower costs, consider reusing some or all of the flowers from your wedding ceremony at your reception venue. Bouquets and posies can be used as table centrepieces, and pedestals are easy to transport to another venue too.

You may want to consider including flowers in your chair decoration. Flowers can easily be added to chair backs and look stunning. You can keep costs down here by opting to decorate every second or third chair rather than all of them or by using silk flowers instead of fresh.

Flowers can be used all around your venue to add colour and decoration. Consider presenting flowers as wedding favours to your guests. They can be presented at table settings, allowing them to double as table decoration too, in napkins, or tucked into a favour box for example.

Most brides will want to use floral decoration for the tables at their reception venue. Choosing flowers for this purpose that are grown locally, and especially those that are in season at the time of your wedding, will help t reduce the costs of these flowers. Do not choose flowers that will block the view of your guests, as they need to be able to see each other across the table.

A romantic alternative to floral table centrepieces, and a cheaper alternative to, is to use flower petals to cover the tabletops. Fresh petals smell wonderful, but can discolour by the end of the evening, so you may want to try freeze-dried petals instead as they last longer.

It can be best to choose unscented flower varieties for your wedding reception table decorations, as you do not want heavy scents to interfere with your guests enjoyment of the meal and drinks that you will be serving. Silk flowers can be used, and look just as realistic as fresh.

If you choose to decorate your wedding cake with flowers, you have a few options. You can choose fresh flowers, but you will need to set time aside and hire someone to come in and arrange the flowers on the cake at your reception venue on the morning of the wedding. You can instead choose silk or sugar flowers, which can be more convenient as they can be arranged around the cake ahead of the wedding day.
