Best Bridesmaid Flowers for Every Wedding Season

No matter the season, bridesmaid bouquets are a significant part of your wedding day. There are endless options and combinations of bouquet arrangements, so picking flowers can be overwhelming. To help with the process, ProFlowers put together a list of the best bridesmaid flowers for every wedding season

Flowers for Spring Bouquets

Spring is the perfect time for new beginnings and for love to bloom, which makes it a great time for weddings. Spring bouquets are all about the bold blooms, woodland inspiration, and whimsical add-ons. Here are some suggestions for spring wedding bouquets:

  • Peonies: These beautiful blooms are known for blossoming in the spring. Peonies come in many different colors and pair well with pink roses, sweet peas, and gardenias. 

  • Orchids: Orchids are a step above the traditional rose. These delicate and classy lavender flowers pay homage to spring and will look amazing in your bridesmaids’ hands.

  • Tie in Ribbon: Tying ribbons into your bridesmaid bouquets makes a unique look that will leave your guests in awe. Pick ribbons that complement the flowers and let them hang low to flow in the wind.

Flowers for Summer Bouquets

Summer is the season for all things bright! Bright bouquets, tropical tones, and charming summer accents set the stage for unique bridesmaid bouquets at a summer wedding. Here are some suggestions for a bright and fun summer bouquet:

  • Wildflowers: Wildflowers in your bridesmaid bouquets add a whimsical touch. These flowers work best at garden, bohemian, and country weddings.

  • Tropical: Tropical flowers bring a bit of paradise into your special day. Adding large, lush tropical flowers, such as hibiscus flowers, bring a pop of color to your bridesmaid bouquets.

  • Add Succulents: Succulents have become increasingly trendy over the past several years. This unique plant choice pairs well with any flower.

Flowers for Fall Bouquets

The cool breeze of fall makes for a perfect wedding day. Using natural textures, earthy tones, and country inspiration in your bouquets sets the mood for a cozy fall wedding. That being said, here are some warm and inviting ideas for fall bouquets:

  • Pampas Grass: Pampas grass is a great finishing touch for fall bouquets. It will give your autumn wedding a bohemian feel.

  • Infuse Earthy Tones: Earthy tones will add a natural touch to your wedding and help guests embrace the fall season. Earth tone flowers, such as brown roses, create a warm atmosphere. 

  • Foraged Berries: This is a unique and fun way to set your fall wedding apart from others. The look is rustic while remaining classy and chic. Cranberries, grapes, and blackberries all look great in fall flower arrangements.

Flowers for Winter Bouquets

The winter wedding season is full of icy tones, holiday inspiration, and snowy celebrations. Here are some great ideas for a romantic winter bridesmaid bouquet:

  • Go Green: Greenery always looks amazing in winter bouquets! Dusty miller and eucalyptus pair very well with white flowers.

  • Cool Tones: Icy cool tones are great for adding pops of color to winter bridesmaid bouquets. Blue, gray, and purple flowers look especially stunning in snowy environments. 

  • All White: Mimicking fresh snow, an all white bridesmaid bouquet sticks to the traditional all-white theme of weddings. Keep it simple with white roses or spice it up with some calla lilies.
