Your wedding flowers should, of course, not only represent you but also the season you have chosen for your special day. Share the unique beauty of the season and have a more environmentally friendly floral bouquet.
SPRING
In the early spring, the violas of different varieties are in bloom. They can be arranged in delicate nosegays and in mixed planters for the tables. And they are edible and perfect for your wedding cake! Daffodils and grape hyacinths are beautiful early spring flowers too. Later in the spring, there are many glorious flowering branches to choose from. Oh, and don’t forget lilacs, tulips, and peonies!
SUMMER
By summertime, many of the herbs are starting to bloom. Besides rosemary and lavender, don’t forget that feverfew and chamomile have lovely blossoms. Local farms will have snapdragons and zinnias and many types of amaranth. Black-eyed Susans and daisies are growing in the fields. Our area is also famous for its many varieties of sunflowers. What a wonderful season to celebrate with loads of color and texture!
AUTUMN
In the fall, wild grasses, herbs, rose hips, and various berries are everywhere. Native hydrangeas are showing subtle changes in color. Pumpkins make unique seasonal vessels for your flower arrangements, as well as decorative accents. And then, of course, there is the foliage! What a perfect time of year to celebrate the bounty of the Hudson Valley.
WINTER
Even in the winter, there’s so much to work with, and so many types of pinecones and varieties of evergreens exist. The Hudson Valley is filled with native cedar and viburnum berries, and deciduous holly plants glow with the color red. Additionally, the natural scents you can bring into your venue are delicious. We even have an anemone farm in Red Hook where you can choose flowers all year (except summer)!
