Boho weddings have held a place as one of the most popular wedding styles for the last few years. It’s easy to understand why: with the ability to be more flexible, creative, and stray a little further from traditional wedding colors and decor, boho weddings offer couples a way to let their unique personalities shine. Choosing flowers can be difficult without the help of a florist, however, due to the uniqueness of this trend.

What makes a wedding bohemian? The Boho style can be defined by incorporating a beautiful mix of textures, patterns, and combinations of colors: very similar to what your flowers for the wedding will offer. Boho weddings are often elegant while feeling relaxed and allow for a truly personalized way to make your special day your own.

 

 

Of course, even within the Boho theme itself, there are many options to make your wedding particularly one-of-a-kind. You might be looking for a Beachy Boho vibe, or maybe you like Boho Chic or Boho Vintage. Woodland, Fairytale, and Wanderlust themes can also be incorporated into your floral arrangements to uniquely capture your personality and love story. With the right florist, you can make your Boho Wedding Flowers fit your ideal bohemian wedding.

One of our favorite parts of bohemian floral arrangements is that they often use more than just fresh flowers! Dried florals or other dry products are a great way to add the relaxed and organic elements into your arrangements that will make your theme even more well-rounded and add those gorgeous textures that define bohemian style. Typically, boho florals in wedding bouquets are often loose and flowing with a natural look that seems as though you picked them on the way to the aisle. Your other florals in your wedding will have a similar feeling. Of course, making something look natural is much more complicated than it sounds, and our job is to take your floral choices and make it all seem effortlessly arranged.

 

 

 

One of our tips for looking for flowers to keep them feeling bohemian is to pick a monochromatic color scheme. Natural and neutral colors look gorgeous in a bohemian wedding, so colors like cream, ivory, champagne, maybe a hint of dusty pink offer lovely shades to fill your floral arrangements with. We’ve seen new neutral trends are adding honey colors, like
toffee roses or sahara sprays.

Once you’ve considered the elements of your theme and your unmistakable bohemian flair, how do you know which flowers to choose that fit the color scheme and style? We’re here to help. Below, we’ll share a few of our favorite flowers to consider when thinking about your perfect bohemian floral dreams for your wedding.

 

 

 

We’ll start with the most iconic dried product of the essential boho wedding style: Pampas Grass. We love using pampas grass in our arrangements for our brides because they make such a statement! Whether used in bouquets, entryways at the venue, or even embedded with the florals for your arch at the altar, they are sure to impress. Your florist can help you choose the correct kind, length, and color.

 

       

 

Pampas grass is just the beginning. There are plenty of gorgeous blooms to consider for your wedding. For fresh flowers in a bohemian wedding, we have a few that we find particularly beautiful. Our list of bohemian favorites are:

 

1. Quicksand Roses: With their ivory color and lavender and pink undertones, quicksand roses are an obvious choice when choosing a neutral flower that still has a bit of color. They also don’t offer much fragrance, which can be suitable for those with more sensitive noses.
2. Playa Blanca Roses: To add a full and bright contrast to your wedding florals, the playa blanca is an excellent choice. They offer an incredible brightness that blends well with almost any color scheme with full petals and a crisp white color.
3. White Phalaenopsis Orchids:  Roses not your thing? No worries. White phalaenopsis roses are a fresh flower that will offer the same organic feel to your wedding while being a surprising choice from the traditional rose. Primarily white in color, these orchids typically have a yellow center but can also have beautiful pink or purple sprayed color on their petals.
4. Toffee Roses:  With their deep ivory color that is almost brown, toffee roses are a darker and more luscious neutral. Their naturally weathered look is perfect for brides who want a vintage look with flowers that still look like they were picked that day.
5. Sahara Spray Roses: For the couple that wants a neutral that isn’t ivory or beige, the sahara spray rose offers a light peachy pink color that will blend well with most colors while still adding color and feminine variety into your flowers.
6. Golden Mustard Garden Rose:  A variety of the garden rose, these dark yellow roses have a fantastic, lush bloom that looks luxe. Garden roses have a bloom similar to a peony and do a great job of filling out flowers, and the yellow color adds richness to any bouquet.
7. Keira Garden Roses: An abundance of ruffled petals and a creamy pink color makes this rose a common staple in couples looking to add subtle pink tones to a more neutral color scheme. They can also have deeper pink-tipped edges to add dimension to a monochromatic palette.
8. White Anthuriums:  White Anthuriums are white with an open, heart shape that is sure to add romance. It is versatile and can be an easy addition to a tropical-themed bohemian wedding, or added to a more traditional bouquet to add interest.

 

 

Any of these beautiful fresh flowers will go wonderfully with your bohemian wedding theme.Paired with dry products, they’re sure to be showstoppers.

What dry products should you choose with your flowers? We have a list of the ones we keep going back to:

1. Italian Ruscus: Fresh italian ruscus is beautiful, to be sure, but we love the dried varieties of this leafy plant. They can be bleached to create a stark white or can become a worn yellow and orange to offer soft colors to your theme.
2. Ferns: Dried ferns can be another way to add vibrant colors without being loud. Many couples choose to add dried ferns into their design due to the wide variety of colors to choose from while still staying true to the bohemian vibe.
3. Bunny Tails: The name of this plant gives away its look: it is white or ivory in color and has a fluffy look to its head. It is more oblong than round like an actual rabbit’s tail, but it still has the volume to make a stand-out floral design.
4. Thistle: To add another element to the much desired textural complexity of boho themes, thistle plants are spikey but beautiful. They can add a delicate severity to generally soft-looking wedding flowers.
5. Grasses:  Aside from the pampas grass mentioned above, there are a wide variety of grasses that are typically longer than most flowers which can give a flowing aesthetic or height to any wedding flowers at your wedding.
6. Proteas: Similar to the thistle, the proteas has spikes that can add a lovely contrast to your flowers. They have a large round shape and can offer volume to your arrangements in a way that most flowers can’t.
7. Baby’s Breath: Many brides choose to have baby’s breath in their wedding flowers, but we think that dried baby’s breath offers something special as well. Smaller flowers such as these add delicacy to a bouquet, and with the ivory color of this dried flower, you’ll gain depth in your color palette that bright whites can’t always offer.
8. Dried Palms: Another incredibly recognizable plant is the dried palm. It has become a favorite due to its size and ability to elevate almost any floral arrangement and is a perfect addition to practically any boho floral design.

 

 

There are many wonderful choices for florals and dry products when creating your dream bohemian wedding, and we hope this list helps inspire and inform you as you make decisions for your special day.
