"When Do They Bloom? Seasonal Schedule of Popular Wedding Flowers Throughout the Year"
My Favorite Flowers. Do You Know When That Variety Blooms?
At weddings, many flowers are used for bouquets, main tables, and guest table decorations*
Many brides may already have images in mind about flower types, such as "I want to use anemones in the decorations!" or "I yearn for a bouquet made only of peonies!" ♩
So, it's important to pay attention to the flower season.
While some flowers bloom all year round due to breeding and greenhouse cultivation, generally, the varieties that bloom differ by season, which will affect the availability of floral materials.
Therefore, flowers that do not bloom during the wedding season may not be available, or they may be very expensive if they are available...!
If you've decided on specific flowers you absolutely want to use, it's reassuring to set the wedding date according to when those flowers bloom.
In this article, we will introduce the blooming periods of popular flowers for weddings*
