One of the hottest trends this wedding season has been the addition of succulents to your ceremony. They can replace virtually any flower on your special day and are much hardier and sustainable. That means you can take home and admire a token from your special day for months even years after the party. Plant them in your garden and watch them grow like the love you and your partner share.
You don’t need to live in California to appreciate the fact that a succulent plant needs very little water and maintenance. When planted, they only need to be watered once a week. Succulents come in a wide variety of astonishing shapes and colors that can be made to look as elegant or as casual as you would like. The thick, fleshy leaves on succulents give beautiful contrast to delicate flowers in an array of different arrangements at the ceremony. We’ll talk about the different locations and ways you can incorporate succulents into your chic wedding.
Centerpieces
Deck out your reception with custom centerpieces containing succulents. This is a great idea because they will last months after the ceremony and you or your guests can take them home and have them as a treasure from your amazing wedding day. Also, you will save a ton of money using a succulent instead of flowers. You can always mix succulents with fresh flowers as well!
Bridal Bouquets
Give your bridal bouquet an organic feel without sacrificing any class by adding beautiful and unique succulent array to your bouquet. Complement these plants with a softer flower like peonies or roses for a classic, garden look. Make them extravagant or simple, the choice is yours.
Boutonnières
Keep the same organic feel for your boutonnieres while keeping it simple and beautiful. Succulents are great for boutonnieres because they look great, they last long and they are easy to make. Use other earthy flowers such as billy balls or dusty miller to complement the succulent in your boutonniere.
Corsages
Succulents go great in corsages and give the earthy feel you are most likely going for if you chose succulents. Easy to make and beautiful, succulent corsages are a perfect choice for your wedding. Use one or many together, the possibilities are endless.
