See Jane Inspired - Unexpected Ways to use Roses in Your Wedding

by Jane Summers

Getting showered with roses doesn’t have to end with Valentine’s Day! Turn those beautiful blooms from your sweetheart into bouquets of inspiration for your wedding. Not sure where to start? We have a few unexpected design ideas.

FLOWER WALL BACKDROP

Photo booths have become a staple at weddings over the past few years. One way to ensure your celebration stands out is by having a grand rose backdrop. Bring the outside in with various shades of red, white and pink or mix things up with different-style blooms. (Garden roses, Peonies, Dahlias and Hydrangeas are a few of our favorites). Guests will be lining up to take their picture with such a gorgeous display. Imagine all of the beautiful picture-perfect memories that will be created.

POMANDER AISLE DECOR

Tissue Rose Pomander

We love this whimsical twist on classic floral décor. Instead of draping your ceremony aisle with garland or mini bouquets, attract the eye of every friend and family member with rose pomanders. These charming floral clusters delicately dancing throughout the ceremony will put dozens of roses at guests' fingertips in a chic and surprising display. Simply transfer to the reception for stylish accents blooming by the dance floor. 

LUSH FLOWER CROWNS

Whether you are leaning toward a bohemian wedding or simply prefer a fashionable alternative to a bouquet, this will do the trick. Infuse floral elements into your look (as well as your bridesmaids!) with a stylish crown of roses or smaller monochromatic blooms. The burst of color and delicate petals adds an elegant touch of romance.
