Flowers and other plants make weddings at event centers in McAllen, TX that much more beautiful. Use these tips for how to use floral décor at your wedding as inspiration. 

• Bouquets and Boutonnieres – These are classics for a reason! Decorating your wedding party with bouquets, boutonnieres, and corsages helps them stand out from the other guests and adds additional color and floral life to the wedding. As a bonus, have your bridesmaids put their bouquets in pre-set vases during the reception as additional décor for the head table. 

• Floral Cakes – Wedding cakes can be anything or decorated in any way, but they’ve definitely come a long way from the multi-tiered monstrosities with plastic bridges from the 80s! Make your cake special and timeless by decorating it with flowers and greenery instead of cake toppers. 

• Living Backdrops – Living walls are awe-inspiring. Plus, they make great photo ops for you and your guests. Place one behind the head table to add color and interest or choose a spot somewhere else in your venue where guests can stop and take photos in front of the beautiful flowers. 

• Chandeliers – Most venues and event centers already have light fixtures, but you can take them to the next level by decorating them with flowers and greenery. Floral chandeliers are elegant, enchanting, and eye-catching both in photos and in person. 

• Petal Carpet – Go back to the classics and have your flower girl spread actual petals on the aisle. You can buy rose petals for a luxurious feel or choose a more affordable but still beautiful flower to save on your budget. 

• Indoor Trees – Bring some of the outside in for your indoor wedding by decorating the space with indoor trees and other potted plants. If you choose and pot the plants yourself you can also take them home with you after the wedding is over to decorate your home, backyard, or porch. 

• Wreaths – Wreaths aren’t just for the holidays anymore. These circular decorations have long symbolized eternity, making them ideal for use at a wedding. Elevate a floral wreath with twinkling lights for an even more festive feel.
