7 In-Season Wedding Flowers For The July Bride
When planning a wedding in Australia, the season you choose can greatly impact your floral choices. Not only do in-season blooms offer a fresher and more sustainable option, but they also tend to be more budget-friendly than importing flowers from abroad. For a July wedding, here are seven stunning options that are readily available, each with its unique charm:
Cymbidium Orchid
A majestic and intricate bloom, the beauty of this flower lies in its versatility. Its delicate petals unfurl in an array of hues – from gentle pink to pale green and rich red – making it a stunning focal point in any arrangement, including a wedding bouquet where it can truly make a statement.
Hyacinth
The fragrant beauty of this small flower cluster is characterized by a wide range of captivating colors including white, pink, orange, blue, and vibrant violet hues. Its sweet aroma has earned it a reputation for being truly irresistible.
Ranunculas
Ranunculus flowers are set to be a top choice for wedding bouquets this season, thanks to their lush, rounded blooms that boast layers of delicate petals. This versatile flower comes in a range of hues, including pure white, soft pink, regal purple, and rich plum – as well as striking two-toned combinations. Whether you’re envisioning a classic all-white arrangement or something more bold and playful, ranunculus flowers are sure to bring a touch of elegance and whimsy to your special day.
Anemone
July weddings wouldn’t be the same without the striking presence of anemones. These flowers have earned their spot on many a wedding guest list due to their stunning array of colours and unique velvety texture. Characterized by a single row of petals surrounding a dramatic black centre, anemones are available in a range of hues, including bold reds, crisp whites, rich purples, and even elegant two-toned varieties.
Tulips
Elegant and timeless, tulips bring a sophisticated touch to any bridal bouquet with their slender stems and delicately cupped petals. The rounded petals of traditional tulips or the dainty fringes of their more refined counterparts both offer a classic charm that complements any arrangement.
Wattle
In 1898, the wattle was officially crowned as Australia’s floral emblem, and it’s easy to see why – its gorgeous, golden blooms add a unique touch to any wedding bouquet. The plant’s fuzzy textured spheres and distinctive perfume make it an ideal choice for country, Australiana or bohemian-themed weddings. Whether you’re looking to incorporate a little bit of Aussie charm into your big day or simply want to add some visual interest to your arrangements, the wattle is sure to impress.
Sweet Pea
The sweet pea is a timeless symbol of ‘lasting pleasure’, boasting a delectable fragrance reminiscent of lollipops and delicate, ruffled blooms. Its classic charm has made it a beloved choice for wedding bouquets, with varieties available in soft hues of pink, white, and lilac. This nostalgic favourite has been a staple in many a bouquet, and its sweet allure is perfectly captured in the image from sweetvioletbride. com, which beautifully showcases this iconic bloom.
