Vintage wedding flowers can come in any shape, size and colour. A popular choice is using a soft pastel colour scheme to create a vintage look. White, soft pinks, oranges and subdued shades of green are perfect choices for vintage wedding flowers. Some of the favourites for vintage wedding flowers include roses, orchids, tulips, lilies and of course baby's breath.

In order to get your ideal vintage look, you will need more than just the right flowers and colour palette. For the perfect vintage flowers, you need the right arrangement and accessories.

A good florist will be able to arrange exquisite vintage wedding flowers. Often florists will accessorise the bouquets and flower arrangements to enhance the vintage theme. Elements such as feathers, ribbons, jewels, pearls and even dried flowers can be incorporated into the arrangement to create the perfect vintage wedding flower arrangement.

How you present your flowers is also important. There are many ways to display your flowers and centrepieces. Luckily the vintage look works well with several elements such as clear glass, crystal, wood or even gold or silver. If you use the right accessories and vases, you can easily let your flowers tie in with your overall theme.
