Roses
If you’re from Portland you, of course, know we are known for being the city of roses so this is a staple in many portland weddings here at the Belle. There are many many varieties of roses to choose from. The more fuller roses are perfect for your showstopper flower (the main flower that pops in your bouquet). The smaller ones like spray roses are great for accents in your bouquet. If you get the chance and live in portland go check out the portland rose gardens to see a huge variety of roses that may inspire you.
Hydrangea
The hydrangea is very popular in the blue and white colors but there are many other colors to choose from. These can be used in bouquets, arraignments, or even on your wedding cake. These flowers tend to be a love or hate flower so you decide how it fits best into your wedding.
Tulips
Similar to roses there are different types of tulips. There are fringed tulips (have fringe on the tips of their pedals), double tulips (have twice as many pedals making them look fuller), Rembrandt tulips (have beautiful red streaks running down their pedals) and many more. Tulips are also great for a budget.
Dahlia
These very popular flowers are also very large making them the perfect focal flower. With many colors and types to choose from making your wedding bouquet stunning. These also are another great flower that gets an amazing bang for your buck.
