A current trend in Singapore is wearing wedding corsages at weddings. You might have seen them a couple of times, but essentially, they are accessories made with flowers. They can either feature a single bloom or consist of multiple flowers arranged together. Corsages serve as a way to honor those who are special to the couple.

Choosing the perfect flower can be picky, as there are many sorts of criteria that should be considered. Thankfully, seasons aren't one of them due to Singapore's constantly hot weather. Here are some tips to help in determining what's a suitable flower for Singapore's weddings:

Pick a Vivid Color

Due to the hot weather, it's usually suitable for weddings to have a summer theme. Lively colors tend to be great in making the theme pop and create a lively atmosphere. Consider choosing primary colored flowers. Some notable flowers that are recommended are dahlias, zinnias, hibiscus, lantana, and iris.

Choose Resilient Flowers

If you're going with fresh flowers, consider picking resilient ones, as fragile flowers may wither quickly, especially in hot weather. Some durable flowers include roses, chrysanthemums, orchids, sunflowers, and carnations.

Determine the Right Scent

The aroma of flowers matters more than you think as it adds an extra touch to the wedding's atmosphere. Consider flowers that are known to be loved for their scent, such as lavender, jasmine, and roses.

Fresh vs Artificial Corsages

When it comes to choosing wedding corsages, keep in mind that you can either go with fresh or artificial flowers. Regardless of what you choose, both have their own benefits.

Fresh Flowers

  • Authentic Fragrance: Real flowers create a more prominent atmosphere thanks to their scent.

  • Tradition: For years, weddings have used real flowers as they hold a deep meaning in celebrations.

  • Biodegradable: Since fresh flowers are natural, it makes it easy for them to be disposed of.

Artificial Flowers

  • Durability: Compared to real flowers, artificial flowers won’t wither.

  • Cost-effective: Artificial flowers only require minimal care as they don’t need things like water and such.

  • Allergy-free: Artificial flowers are pollen-free, meaning no one will feel discomfort in the wedding hall.

Conclusion

Choosing the perfect wedding corsage may seem like a small detail, but there are many factors that come into play. From the type of corsage, the choice of flowers, and even deciding between fresh or artificial, all of these contribute to the overall look of the wedding.

By considering these aspects, couples are able to choose corsages that not only match the theme of the wedding, but also suit the people wearing them. In the end, a corsage serves not just as an accessory, but also as a way to honor and appreciate those who are part of the celebration.
