1. Succulent Wedding Bouquet
Walking on the aisle with a succulent wedding bouquet can be a dramatic entry to the scene when everyone, including your would-be partner, is eagerly awaiting you! If you think it would just be green and without any colors, you would be happy to hear that you might be wrong. Succulents come in so many colors and with such large, colorful and scented flowers that you may not believe. So, you can go for a bouquet that would include leaves as well as flowers. And still, if you don’t like the idea of a bouquet of all succulents, you can always include your favorite flowers in your bouquet along with succulents.
2. Succulent wedding décor
You can incorporate succulents in your wedding décor in a range of ways.
Aisle Décor
As such, candles and floral runners are a superb traditional route for a wedding aisle, but you can give the tradition a great twist by adding succulents to your aisle décor. Your guests would be wonderstruck to watch you walking on such a unique and colorful aisle.
Cake Décor
Another great way to step away from the tradition is to incorporate succulents in your cake décor skipping the traditional floral tiered cake! This can be a perfect way to work succulents in your wedding without making them overwhelming!
3. Flower Girl Basket
Which element of your big day can be sweeter than your flower girl carrying a basket full of multi-colored succulents! Believe us, this could be a big hit and many would copy it for their wedding!
4. Ring Pillow
If the flower girl would be succulent-themed, why should the ring bearer lag behind? Give the conventional silk or satin ring pillow an altogether unique transformation with a living succulent ring pillow! This can be a DIY green succulent arrangement to show off the wedding rings!
Other Ways to Include Succulents in Your Wedding
Plus, you can use succulents in table decoration, centerpieces, wreaths, bridesmaids’ bouquets and so many other ways. Last but not the least, you can give your guests sweet tiny baby succulents as wedding favors so they’ll remember your big day forever when those babies would grow in their own gardens!
Bottom Line
By having a succulent wedding theme, you can show the world that succulents are not always thorny or spiny, but they can be colorful, charming and beautiful! So, are you going to throw a succulent wedding event?
