If you are planning on having your wedding during the late winter or early spring, try using some springtime flowering branches in your wedding décor. Flowering branches are perfect for places where you might need something large such as altar arrangements for the ceremony or tall reception table centerpieces. Flowering branches can be manipulated or arranged into a slight curve for decorating arches and gazebos. With only a few branches in a vase, a very modern aesthetic can be created – think tall minimalist and eco-chic centerpieces down a long rectangular table. Alternatively, filling a container with hundreds of branches to overflowing might look as if a fantastic blossoming tree suddenly sprouted from your escort card table!

Forsythia

Forsythia branches explode with hundreds of delicate yellow blossoms. Cherry blossom branches can come in white, light pink, as well as fuschia. Their blossoms can be singles or doubles with many petals per bloom. Just imagine beautiful cherry blossom branches featured at an outdoor wedding ceremony and when a slight breeze blows, many tiny pink petals shower down, some fluttering, like snowflakes dusting the ground. Who needs rose petals?

In addition to flowering branches, the spring also brings us more streamlined pussy willow branches. By themselves, they evoke an even more modern and rustic flavor, but when mixed with other flowers such as lilies and roses, they fit perfectly into a traditional wedding decor.

Cherry Blossom centerpieces

What if you love the look of springtime flowering branches, but are holding your wedding in August? Although it may be impossible to feature cherry blossom in an August wedding, it is possible to create a flowering branch look with other flowers and branches. For example, you can attach individual stems of dendrobium orchids onto tall sturdy curly willow branches. Dendrobiums are pretty hardy and can be kept out of water for a few hours, long enough for a wedding and reception. It is also possible to insert each stem into a water tube or glass test tube and incorporating the tubes into the design. Dendrobiums come in many different colors such as white, pink, orange/gold, green, magenta, and purple. This alternative may end up costing more, but serves as a clever way to achieve that flowering branch look during the rest of the year!
