Preparing a wedding is a pleasant and exciting chore. One of the important tasks is to decorate the wedding hall with flowers. How to start decorating a wedding, what to consider when choosing fresh flowers, how to make decorations for the hall out of paper yourself? You will find out about this in our article.

Thinking about the decoration of the celebration, you need to clearly imagine what picture the newlyweds and guests will see when they enter the festive hall. Many are puzzled by this task. You can solve the problem by contacting an experienced decorator, or you can plan everything yourself and do most of the work on your own. First of all, decide on the style of your wedding. This will help you decide in what color scheme to decorate the room, as well as what flowers to choose for this. It is easier to make the choice, given the time of year at which the wedding is scheduled.

In early spring, you can have a green wedding and decorate the hall with compositions of lush decorative greenery:

• fern, eucalyptus, bergrass leaves;
• green lotus boxes, birch twigs;
• Delicate bouquets of primroses and snowdrops will add a highlight.

Lilac wedding is a soft purple, pink, lilac tones. You should not use only fragrant lilac branches to decorate the room. The strong aroma of the plant will make guests dizzy, and the monochromatic range will look dull. Add a contrasting color note to the palette:

• light green asters;
• tea roses;
• white lilies with a pale pink center.

Tulip wedding is actual in spring. The choice of tulip combinations is huge:

• soft pastel yellow, lilac, orange, muted pink;
• rich shades of scarlet and red tulips with boiling white or lemon;
• purple, pink and yellow tones.

Tulips do not like being close to other plants in the same composition and are often the only type of flowers at a celebration. If you want to see other flowers at the wedding, it is better to place them in different vases, alternating with each other.

A peony wedding is a combination of pink, crimson and white. In June, these flowers are affordable and inexpensive. Hydrangeas, roses, orchids, astromeria are added to the decoration. Rustic and boho weddings are perfect for the warm season. Laconic simplicity, rustic flavor, wildflowers decor are welcomed here:

• cornflowers, daisies, poppies, dandelions;
• sweet peas, sunflower;
• shepherd's purse, ivan tea.

An autumn wedding implies a muted ripe cherry color combined with gold, orange, cream, terracotta. Compositions can be made with asters, dahlias, gerberas. Zinnias, marigolds are also suitable. Bright autumn foliage and ripe fruits go well: decorative pumpkins, rose hips, glossy red apples. An autumn wedding in the color of Marsala looks gorgeous. This is the color of exquisite Sicilian wine. A combination of deep reds, rich plum and gold hues is welcome here. Decorate the holiday:

• roses, dahlias, asters, hydrangeas;
• chrysanthemums, orchids, astromeria.

Winter weddings are a mix of "snowy" shades of pastel blue, white and silver. For decoration, blue orchids and lisianthuses, snow-white roses and chrysanthemums are suitable. A great idea is a wedding in ivory color. Flowers choose cream, pastel blue, lilac shades. White decor is not recommended here. The winter celebration reminds of the wonderful New Year's holidays. These are bright reds and juicy orange tones.

The composition includes:

• twigs of thuja, nobiles;
• roses of peach, red and tea shades;
• red and white carnations;
• cotton flowers, cinnamon sticks, cones;
• winter fruits: red apples, orange tangerines and oranges.

A solemn meeting of the newlyweds takes place at the entrance to the hall. Garlands of artificial flowers, racks or large vases with floral arrangements in a massive style are suitable for decorating a flight of stairs. On the steps of the stairs, you can arrange a path of petals. An economical option is to make flower petals with your own hands from corrugated paper. They look very natural, and they are consumed and cost half as much as live ones.

You will need:

• corrugated floristic paper with a density of 180 grams;
• scissors;
• pencil.

1. Choose the color of paper you want.
2. Cut the roll lengthwise into strips 1.5 - 2 divisions wide.
3. Cut each strip into rectangles 6-7 cm wide.
4. Fold together some rectangles and cut out the petal in a teardrop shape.
5. Straighten the petals and use a pencil to shape them into a curved shape.

If the meeting area is spacious and well-lit, you can place a photo zone here. Growth flowers are an excellent option for a photo shoot. Giant peonies, roses, ranculus, daisies, carnations, sunflowers from corrugated paper look amazing and create a feeling of penetration right from the door into the wonderful and romantic world of a fairy tale where lovers once met. The use of such a decor is very convenient. You can easily build any composition by moving the stands. The main thing is that flowers and guests wishing to be photographed successfully fall into the frame.

The tradition of decorating the hall with paper flowers has become fashionable.Lush flowers and paper pom-poms are suspended in silence with the help of transparent lines to the ceiling in the form of hanging garlands or lianas stretched along the perimeter. Flowers made of crepe paper are fixed on fabric canvases draping chairs. The decor shouldn't stand out. Combine no more than two basic shades in garlands to maintain the overall tone.

We pay special attention to the table of heroes of the occasion. If it stands separately, below, along the perimeter, massive compositions of fresh flowers are placed in flowerpots or baskets. Stands or tall vases with linear or cascading bouquets are placed on the sides. If you focus on the lower part of the table, it is not worth the pompous design of the presidium. A rather modest and delicate composition located in the center of the table along the edge, as well as several low vases made of transparent glass with fresh flowers. Water in vases can be colored by adding lemonade or floral dye.

Other decoration options:

• select the upper part of the presidium;
• wide flower garland around the perimeter of the table;
• horizontal composition with a luxurious cascade of flowers and greenery;
• chandeliers or vases of flowers on high legs, placed symmetrically on the sides of the table.

Rectangular tables are decorated with garlands of flowers or individual compositions in low vases and glasses. Compositions in tall cups or martin dishes, the height of which is not less than 65 cm, is acceptable. Large and tall compositions should be placed at a considerable distance from each other at least 1.5 meters. For round and oval tables, a large bouquet in the center of the table or a group of small miniature compositions 20-25 cm high is recommended.

Take advantage of the helpful advice of florists.

• If the budget allows, decorate the tables with fresh flowers, they create a special atmosphere and mood.
• Let there be few compositions of fresh flowers, but if they are made by a skilled florist, it looks unforgettable.
• Arrange the decor so that it does not fall into the plates and does not interfere with the guests' communication.
• Paper flowers, made carelessly, look ridiculous. Beautiful arches and growth flowers made by professionals can be rented.
• Consider the wishes of the future spouses, try to please them.
• If possible, place your favorite flowers on the table of the newlyweds.

The happy smile of the newlyweds is the best reward for your efforts.
