Orchid Bridal Bouquet

Orchid Bridal Bouquet

Orchids simply make lovely wedding flowers, especially orchid bridal bouquet, orchid centerpiece, orchid corsages and orchid boutonnieres. They are absolutely popular among brides-to-be.

Their all year round availability makes them the preferred choice among other flowers.

The most common type of orchid used in weddings is the Cymbidium orchid and Phalaenopsis orchid. They come in either mini size or larger ones, but both are very popular. The most common colors for cymbidium are white, green, pink, yellow and burgundy. The flower itself is quite heavy, so a special technique is necessary to hold them in a bouquet.

Another popular type is the Phalaenopsis orchid. Its face is rather flat, and the petals are wide but they look great in a bouquet. Because of its flatness, it is usually used for cascade bouquets. The usual colors are white and purple.

Vanda orchids make great bridal bouquet too. They are smaller in size compared to the cymbidium, but many brides love them, especially the purple color.

Not forgetting the Dendrobium orchids or better known as Singapore orchids. They can be considered as line flowers because they are actually small flowers branching from a long stem. They are usually used as is, to show its beautiful lines. Colors of the dendrobium are plenty, like white, green, yellow, orange and purple.
