Your Guide to Summer Wedding Flowers

What does your wedding bouquet say about you?

We have reached the peak of summer – which means wedding season is in full swing. If you’re on the lookout for wedding flowers or an occasion bouquet for any summery celebration, we have some thoughts on the symbolism, color splashes and the broader meaning behind your floral choices! For instance, did you know that sunflowers connote loyalty and commitment, while orchids are a symbol of luxury and fiery passion?

Some of our favorite, most romantic bouquets include Roses of all colors for their timeless, long-standing symbolism of affection and love. Hydrangeas are another great indicator of romantic love, pride, performative celebration, and memory. They make an especially fine table setting, with their broad, wide floral head and vibrant color. Or an arrangement like our Hydrangea Elegance positions them as a cloud-like base for taller-stemmed flowers.

Gerbera daisies are another smiley – if coy – addition to a wedding bouquet. Gerberas do well in hot temperatures, as they are native to East Asia and Africa, and are playful, personal and have a flexible structure that allows them to be combined with many other floral varieties. This Hydrangea & Gerbera Daisy Bouquet is an inspired choice that communicates both elegance and friendship.

Weddings and family unions bring energy and flair to summertime – and are some of our favorite events to work toward. The team at Allen’s Flower Market celebrates family with all of our hearts – and will be partners with you in the process of making your wedding flower selections. With locations across Southern California, it’s no surprise that we’ve been voted Best Florist in Long Beach since 2011.
