The blossoms you select for your wedding day are rooted in rich cultural and historical traditions. From ancient Rome and ancient Greece to the Middle East, we've gathered the best flower-related customs we could find.

In Thailand, the mothers of the bride and groom walk to the altar to drape puang malai -- flower garlands -- around the couple's shoulders to wish them good fortune in their life together.

Swedish and Danish grooms sew small pockets of strong-smelling herbs like garlic, chives, and rosemary into their clothes for good luck.
 

The Indian groom's brother sprinkles flower petals over the couple at the end of the ceremony to protect them from evil.

Ancient Roman brides carried bunches of herbs to symbolize fidelity and fertility -- and to scare off evil spirits.
 

So as you can see flowers have played a very important role in the wedding ceremony for quite some time and have great significance. Please call us with any of your wedding needs and we will do our best to accommodate you.
