Orange Wedding Flowers

Your wedding is going to be held in a few months time. You have barely started with the wedding preparation. And this is mainly because you are struck with the problem on how to give your wedding a unique feel. In your mind, you say, “There must be over a million of weddings that have been held before! What can I possibly do to make mine stand out and be unique?”

The solution is simple. Opt for a wedding color that would give your event a dazzling and distinct look like orange for example. You look at orange and you tell yourself, “But this is not a wedding color.” That is the point!

Orange is not a typical wedding color. But if you look at it closely and close your eyes to imagine, you would realize that it could indeed be a very nice color that would make your special day lovely and dramatic. There are various ways you can decorate your big day with this terrific shade. Here are some tips to get you started.

  1. Combine two colors – To tone down the brightness of orange, you can pair it up with a less vibrant shade like pale blue, brown, light yellow, or white. For a rich contrasting effect, combine orange with metallic bronze, bright blue, or gold.
  2. Gather bright orange gerbera daisies as a table centerpiece – Put these vibrant blooms in a beautiful pale colored vase (so that the flowers would stand out) and tie the vase with a light colored satin ribbon or organza. The nice thing about orange blooms is that it symbolizes fertility.
  3. Use pots of orange mums to decorate the church – Add in accents that come in the color of gold, russet, brown, espresso, or bronze to give to rustic feel that is both homey and inviting.
  4. Orange and terra cotta roses can give a sophisticated ambiance to your wedding – You can use these to adorn the aisle runner, the altar, or the church pews. Other flowers that can grab people’s attention include orange calla lilies, orange orchids, orange alstroemeria, orange Asiatic lilies and orange tulips.
  5. Have orange balloons clustered to form an arch – This can be placed above the couple’s table or the entryway. Throw in some peach roses, ribbons and bows as embellishments.
  6. Use orange candles to light up the place – Candles add to the romantic and dramatic atmosphere of the wedding.
  7. Place tea light candles inside orange mason jars – Mason jars have become a staple in many weddings. This is because they are an inexpensive and beautiful way to decorate a wedding event.
  8. Sprinkle orange petals on the aisle runner or around table centerpieces – Orange petals are the little touches that can make major decorations more stunning.

Orange is cheerful and festive—the perfect color for a merriment like a wedding. With all the wonderful decoration ideas mentioned in this article, you would not have a hard time making your wedding spectacular with the use of this color.
