The harmonious combination of the floral design of the wedding and its theme is not an easy task. Be sure to take into account all the nuances: the venue of the celebration, and seasonality, and the bride’s wedding dress, and, of course, the festive cake. Recently, more and more girls want to surround themselves on their most important day of life with the aroma and beauty of tender and airy peonies in pastel shades. The so-called peony wedding reflects two extra-trendy trends: the emphasis on the use of colors in decor and the use of a single gamut of shades.
Peony - a majestic flower
Peony in the Far East is a symbol of wealth, joy, fertility. It combines luxury, tenderness and romance. That is why many brides prefer peony wedding decorations. At the same time, it is very important that these truly royal flowers are used not only in the design of the hall, but also for decorating various attributes of the celebration.
By the way, in ancient China, peonies were considered the prerogative of only the wealthiest citizens. They were worth its weight in gold, and mere mortals were forbidden to even grow them in their gardens. And today, despite their availability, these divinely smelling flowers are considered the personification of tenderness and luxury.
A well-organized peony wedding will certainly remain in the memory of all those present for a long time. Indeed, delicate pink and light purple lush buds perfectly fit not only into the general concept of decor, but also incredibly harmoniously fit into the image of the newlyweds.
Ideas for brides
To design a newlywed dress, both artificial and living peonies are suitable. They can be placed on a belt, on a bracelet, in the neckline, and, of course, in a wedding wreath.

Peonies in the image of the groom
The only element in the groom’s attire in which flowers can be used is the boutonniere. She and the bride’s bouquet should overlap. Of course, excesses here will be inappropriate; one single bud, dressed in a lapel of a jacket, will be enough.
