Wedding Flowers

Flower Meaningsboutinarrie

If you’re having trouble choosing your wedding flowers you may want to choose flowers that have a special meaning. Or perhaps you want to give flowers to people for a special meaning. My name in Chinese uses the word for ‘orchid’, and my fiancé is Chinese so I’ve arranged for orchids in my bouquet and orchids for my fiancé's boutonniere.

The Meaning of Flowers

Each flower traditionally has it’s own meaning. The meanings can vary depending on which authority you check, however here’s a brief guide:
