Type 1 of small white flowers used in weddings: Baby's Breath

First on the list is the fluffy, voluminous baby's breath. This flower is a staple in natural weddings, so many of you might already know this one!

The language of flowers for baby's breath is "purity of heart." This flower's elegant and delicate appearance is well-suited to its meaning.

Type 2 of small white flowers used in weddings: Lace Flower

Next up is the lace flower. Many tiny white flowers bloom closely gathered on a single stem, giving it a lace-like appearance.

The flower meanings are "gratitude," "delicate heart," and "sensitivity."

Since the flowers are even smaller and more intricate than baby's breath, this flower is recommended when you want to subtly incorporate small white flowers.

Type 3 of small white flowers used in weddings: Rice Flower

The rice flower has tiny buds that look like grains of rice. It can be used in either its bud or blooming state.

In its bud state, it appears as a cluster of small, round white shapes.

The rounded silhouette of this flower is rare, making it an accent when added to bouquets.

When the small buds bloom, they produce adorable small white flowers. While they resemble baby's breath, they have a sturdier feel than baby's breath. They are long-lasting and suitable for making dried flowers.

The flower meanings are "abundant harvest" and "richness."

Type 4 of small white flowers used in weddings: Matricaria

Matricaria is a spring flower with white petals and a yellow center (called the flower head).

Small yet adorable and impactful, this flower is essential for natural weddings. It’s popular to combine it with baby's breath.

The language of flowers is "calm," "deep affection," and "joy of gathering."

Type 5 of small white flowers used in weddings: Flannel Flower

The flannel flower has a gentle texture similar to flannel (woolen fabric). It looks like a daisy but features a green center with pointed petal tips.

(Actually, the petal-like parts are transformed leaves, and the flowers cluster in the center.)

Among the small flowers introduced here, it has a relatively large size. When bundled with lace flowers or baby's breath, it adds a stylish touch♡

The flower meanings are "nobility," "sincerity," and "always love."

Type 6 of small white flowers used in weddings: Astilbe

The last flower introduced is the astilbe, which has a bubbly appearance. It frequently appears as a secondary flower in bouquets and decorations.

The bouncing silhouette adds a natural atmosphere to arrangements♩
