Flowers speak to the eye, the spirit and the soul of mankind. God planted a beautiful garden East of Eden for Adam and Eve, not only to sustain them, but for their enjoymnent.

Flowers speak the language of beauty. The eye beholds them and they give a feeling of peace, calm and happiness. They uplift the spirit.

Flowers speak the the universal language of love. Nothing says I love you like a beautiful bouquet of flowers.

Flowers also say I’m sorry, forgive me and lets be friends again.

Think of all the occasions that flowers are use to express different sentiments. They are used to decorate homes, offices, Churches, for all holidays and especially for funeral and grave decorations.

Flowers can say I sympathize with what you are going through right now, they can brink satisfaction and serenity into your life.

Think about the beautiful rose, the lilies of the field, the spring tulips and bulbs that enhance the beauty of home and hearth. Think about taking time to stop and enjoy the beauty of flowers.

So when you get into a situation where you don’t know what to say, say it with flowers, especially beautiful silk flowers.

That’s right; most flowers carry a meaning, or a special significance that has been passed down from generation to generation.

We can trace this “flower talk” back to the Victorian Era. It was improper in those days for a man to come out and tell a lady how he felt, so he would choose a flower with special meaning and send it her instead. Because the meaning of flowers was so well known, the woman receiving them understood the message as clearly as if it was written on a piece of paper.

Today, many people don’t speak “flower talk,” but on a day as important as your wedding, you should place a special emphasis on what the flowers that you carry mean.

Let’s start by looking at a few of the most popular wedding flowers, and then examine their meanings.

Roses

There is a reason that roses are the most popular choice of flowers for brides. A white rose stands for innocence, beauty and charm-just the traits every bride wants to portray. A bride that chooses red roses for her wedding flowers is sending a message of passion and of fiery love. If dark pink roses are used for a wedding, the couple is expressing a thankfulness that they found each other. An ivy colored rose stands for fidelity in the marriage-something every new couple strives for.

Tulips

If you are having a spring wedding, there is simply no better way to express your love for your future spouse than by carrying a bouquet of tulips. They are not only beautiful, but speak of an undying love.

Daisies

Daisies are many people’s favorite flower, but not a lot of brides use them in their wedding d?cor. They might if they understood their significance! Daisies stand for romance and an innocent spirit. Does that describe you?

Calla Lilies

These graceful flowers are reminders of our past generations when grace and beauty were the rule. Associated with elegance and charm, a calla lily would be the perfect flower if you wanted to create a sophisticated atmosphere for your wedding.

Now that we’ve looked at some of the most popular flowers, let’s talk about how to use them to create just the right wedding event for you.

If you want a fairy tale type wedding, then you can’t go wrong with roses-lots of them - Combine pinks-both dark and soft -and white and ivy colored ones. Be sure to wrap them in lots of sparkling tulle that matches the other colors in your wedding.

For a more sophisticated affair, use calla lilies. You can carry a single stem for a simple look, or a large bouquet for a stunning effect. Be sure to combine these flowers with elegance-both in the wedding party’s attire and the surrounding decorations.

For a more casual event-such as a beach wedding-use daisies to make your guests feel cheery and at home. You can tie them with pretty ribbons that match the other colors in your wedding’s d?cor, and then mix them with loads of baby’s breath.

Finally, there simply is no better flower for a garden wedding than the tulip. Choose soft pastel colors to create a spring wedding, and then combine them with lots of feathery greenery, white linen and adoring looks!

As you can see, the flowers that you choose for your wedding will definitely set the mood. Knowing that, before you select your flowers, determine what type of wedding and reception event you want to have. Once you do that, choosing the flowers will be a breeze!

Roses are the most common wedding flower. Red roses of course mean I love you but dark red roses are for mourning. Pink roses mean perfect happiness but yellow roses mean jealousy. Sometimes it’s not the color that holds the meaning but the type. A tea rose means I’ll always remember you but a dried white rose means I would rather die than lose my virtue. Rosebuds means beauty and youth but roses signify secrecy and silence.

Roses aren’t the only flowers that hold meaning. Lilies are a very popular wedding flower. The most popular type of lily being the Calla Lily which means beauty. Most lilies have beautiful meanings. The white lily means it’s heavenly to be with you while the yellow lily means I’m walking on air. Did you know that the day lily is the Chinese symbol for mother. The tiger lily means wealth and pride.

Not all flowers have negative meanings, there are very few negative meanings for tulips. Tulips in general mean the perfect lover, this might be a good one to tuck into the buttonhole on his tux. Red tulips are a deceleration of love while a yellow tulip means there is sunshine in your smile.

There are some flowers you can just look at and assume you know what they mean. Never be too hasty in assuming anything. For instance when you look at a cactus you would think that there had to be a negative meaning for it, wrong. A cactus means endurance and forever. This fits if you think about the cactus, they can survive anything.

There are so many different types of wedding flowers that no one could name them all but here are a few more. Peonies were listed as the number 1 flower used in New York weddings which makes you wonder what they had to hide. Peonies mean shame. Orchids also made it into the top five for New York weddings. Orchids are the Chinese symbol for many children.

No matter what wedding flowers you pick, no one is really going to know the meaning unless you tell them. Your wedding flowers like your wedding should be memorable and not based on superstition. Finding the meanings of flowers is like being superstitious about the groom seeing the bride in her wedding dress before the wedding. We make our own luck.
