Flower Alternatives For Allergy Sufferers

Modern Wedding Posted: December 10, 2018

Your wedding is the last place you want to have a sneezing fit and the flowers present on the day are very likely to cause some issues. Not to worry, you can still create amazing detail on your special day whilst taking your allergies into account. We have put together a group of flower alternatives for those allergy sufferers.

Silky Detail...

Carrying a bouquet as you walk down the aisle is a beautiful tradition which many brides wish to include on their special day. If you do suffer from severe allergies, right in front of your nose is the last place you want flowers! Silk flowers are a wonderful alternative that allow you to create the same look as a traditional bouquet and still maintain your comfort. This also means that the bouquet can be kept for longer and used for other occasions.

Lots Of Sparkle...

Add some bling to your day with a brooch or beaded bouquet. This will add an additional feeling of luxury to your bridal look and will create some serious sparkle! When it comes to decorating your venue, continue to use elements of sparkle as an alternative to florals. Whether you choose a traditional range of gems or opt for something bold and colourful, this is a beautiful way to create an unforgettable look.

Keep It Floral...

If you are set on having a decor of florals throughout your wedding, then there are some safer options. Flowers such as roses, peonies, hydrangeas, gladiolus, pansies and impatiens tend to be more hayfever and allergy friendly. Be sure to test this out beforehand to ensure you don't have a reaction. Buy some of the florals and keep them in the house for a few days as a trial run.

Green With Envy...

If flowers are your weakness, then steer towards greenery. This will generally not trigger any allergies and will add a rustic elegance to your decor. The options for using this throughout your wedding are almost endless, and can be scattered through your venue, bouquets and ceremony design. For more inspiration, check out all of the whimsical ways you can add garland into your wedding day here.

Centre Of Attention...

Fabulous centrepieces are a gorgeous way to bring your colour scheme to the tables throughout your reception. Rather than using florals in the design, choose a centrepiece which can bring bold colour and detail to the table. Lanterns, birdcages, candles or feather creations are all great alternatives.

Creative And Colourful...

Flowers add an undeniably gorgeous pop of colour to your day, but it's definitely not the only way to do so! Don't be afraid to add colour and detail through other elements of decor. Lighting, draping, table clothes and place settings are all fantastic ways to add additional colour and creativity to your wedding day.
