Wedding Flowers - What do they mean?
Choosing your flowers for your wedding bouquet might seem to be a question of aesthetics, but instead of basing your choices on colour and style alone, create a bouquet with flowers whose meanings have some significance to you.
The language of flowers dates back to the end of the nineteenth century in England. Flowers were used to express emotions when words and gestures failed.
White roses symbolise unity and love, the white azalea symbolises love and romance and orchids are the symbol of love, beauty, strength, and luxury.The peony (blooming now) is significant both historically and mythologically, and thus is tied to many different meanings and symbols. Peony meanings include romance, prosperity, good fortune, a happy marriage, riches, honour, and compassion, pefect for a wedding.
