Feeling traditional? White roses for a winter wedding and bright red florals for a holiday inspired event are both trends that are done every holiday season. Just because everyone does it, does not mean you have to! In fact, be original, add your own flair, and steer clear of this trend! Even if you plan a winter white wedding, you can change it up. Maybe do as Marilyn Monroe did for her nuptial to baseball player Joe DiMaggio in the Winter of 1954 and use white cymbidium orchids!
Detouring from red or white all together, specifically in December, would also be a financially smart decision since red and white florals are in high demand for Christmas parties and floral distributors tend to hike up the prices during that period. Instead of keeping traditional, the Q team suggests changing up the color palate this winter. Make Navy or Colbalt blue as you base, since blue is a very wintery color, and choose an accent color of maybe rich fushcia or rich purple to mark your occasion. Keep with rich colors rather than pale colors since pale colors scream spring. Colors with stronger pigment are more robust and are more consistent with the winter.
