Kate Greenaway\u2019s aptly-named <i>Language of Flowers,<\/i> originally published in 1844, remains one of the most popular florigraphies available \u2014 and one of the best companions for a quiet afternoon and a cup of tea. Then, for comprehensive lists of botanicals and meanings plus a rich dose of history, try Kathleen Gipp\u2019s <i> A Book of Victorian Floral Sentiments.<\/i> While browsing, keep in mind that the meanings of flowers aren\u2019t always fixed \u2014 the time of writing and the author\u2019s location matters.<\/p>\n<p>As you thumb through your books, jot down the flowers and meanings that speak to you personally. If you happen to be a crack floral designer or a gifted herbal gardener, then by all means, try designing your bouquets yourself. But if you\u2019d rather not or simply lack the time, then share your discoveries with your florist, who can help you design and pull off a beautiful herbal wedding.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_45348\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-45348\" style=\"width: 493px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-45348\" src=\"https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/30aa7b8c577ec34953c2b94cda63e63c.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"493\" height=\"744\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/30aa7b8c577ec34953c2b94cda63e63c.jpg 493w, https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/30aa7b8c577ec34953c2b94cda63e63c-199x300.jpg 199w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 493px) 100vw, 493px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-45348\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-45348\" src=\"https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/30aa7b8c577ec34953c2b94cda63e63c.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"493\" height=\"744\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/30aa7b8c577ec34953c2b94cda63e63c.jpg 493w, https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/30aa7b8c577ec34953c2b94cda63e63c-199x300.jpg 199w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 493px) 100vw, 493px\" \/><\/noscript> colincowieweddings<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2 class=\"subtitle\">Making a List and Checking It Twice<\/h2>\n<p>Once you\u2019ve picked out your flowers and herbs, make a list of all the floral arrangements you\u2019d like to include them in. Start, of course, with the bridal bouquet. As the queen of the day, the bride simply glows with romance, and her bouquet should reflect both her personal style and her deeper beliefs, as spoken through the language of flowers.<\/p>\n<p>The bride\u2019s bouquet sets the tone for the rest. All the other designs, from altar flowers to bridesmaids\u2019 bouquets, should follow her lead. Typical wedding arrangements include the bridal bouquet and bridesmaids\u2019 bouquets, the maid of honor\u2019s bouquet, flower girl bouquets or pomanders, boutonni\u00e9res for the male members of the wedding party, small nosegays or corsages for the mothers of the bride and groom, and additional corsages or boutonni\u00e9res for any special and honored guests such as grandparents, godparents or aunts and uncles.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_45352\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-45352\" style=\"width: 512px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-45352\" src=\"https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/c9110e1eb9dedd2a932b8a3babee0595.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"512\" height=\"427\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/c9110e1eb9dedd2a932b8a3babee0595.jpg 512w, https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/c9110e1eb9dedd2a932b8a3babee0595-300x250.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/c9110e1eb9dedd2a932b8a3babee0595-500x417.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 512px) 100vw, 512px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-45352\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-45352\" src=\"https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/c9110e1eb9dedd2a932b8a3babee0595.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"512\" height=\"427\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/c9110e1eb9dedd2a932b8a3babee0595.jpg 512w, https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/c9110e1eb9dedd2a932b8a3babee0595-300x250.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/c9110e1eb9dedd2a932b8a3babee0595-500x417.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 512px) 100vw, 512px\" \/><\/noscript> Pinterest<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Of course, more obvious elements such as the layout of the ceremony and reception site will play a big role in what flowers you choose. You can choose sleek and simple arrangements, such as two vases of flowers and herbs on the altar. Or you could opt for larger, more complex designs scattered throughout the sanctuary and reception hall. With a larger budget, each table might have a structured floral centerpiece, but for simple yet elegant look, simply scatter loose herbs and flowers over your table linens.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"subtitle\">Popular Choices for Herbs<\/h2>\n<p>As the very essence of romance, an herbal wedding envelops the senses. The mingled aroma of herbs and flowers together intrigues the nose. The beauty of fresh botanicals beckons the eye. The spiked stems of lavender both blend and contrast with velvety rose petals, creating a coupling that\u2019s as individual as the bride and groom. The symbolism of flowers and herbs overlay the senses, which in the final reckoning adds a deeply personal dimension to the celebration.<\/p>\n<p>The heart of every wedding is joy and happiness, romantic love, and the realities of two people joining their lives to create one story as a couple. Herbs and flowers have always been part of the equation. Here\u2019s what the flower books have to say about them:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.favorideas.com\/images\/themes-herbal-wedding2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"425\" height=\"215\" border=\"0\" hspace=\"6\" vspace=\"10\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.favorideas.com\/images\/themes-herbal-wedding2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"425\" height=\"215\" border=\"0\" hspace=\"6\" vspace=\"10\" \/><\/noscript><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"subtitle\">Herbs of Bliss<\/h2>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Sweet marjoram<\/strong>, a Greek symbol of joy and happiness, represents goodwill as the couple starts a new life.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Heartsease<\/strong>, with its cheerful face, stands for happiness. The muted peaches, pastel yellows, creams, and pinks join with traditional purple to add a \u201chappy face\u201d to bouquets.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Burnet <\/strong>(or salad burnet) means a merry heart. The pink blooms and attractive foliage combines beautifully with other flower and herbal varieties.<\/li>\n<li>Mugwort, a midsummer herb, stands for the happiness of the day and the years to come.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Parsley<\/strong>, especially the curled type, looks charming in bouquets. Parsley\u2019s deep green color creates a cool backdrop against the vibrant hues of roses. In the language of flowers, parsley stands for festivities.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<figure id=\"attachment_45354\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-45354\" style=\"width: 560px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-45354\" src=\"https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/2ff14539caaa07f9d337759276cf92e1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"560\" height=\"700\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/2ff14539caaa07f9d337759276cf92e1.jpg 560w, https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/2ff14539caaa07f9d337759276cf92e1-240x300.jpg 240w, https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/2ff14539caaa07f9d337759276cf92e1-500x625.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 560px) 100vw, 560px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-45354\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-45354\" src=\"https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/2ff14539caaa07f9d337759276cf92e1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"560\" height=\"700\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/2ff14539caaa07f9d337759276cf92e1.jpg 560w, https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/2ff14539caaa07f9d337759276cf92e1-240x300.jpg 240w, https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/2ff14539caaa07f9d337759276cf92e1-500x625.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 560px) 100vw, 560px\" \/><\/noscript> Pinterest<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2 class=\"subtitle\">Herbs of Romantic Love<\/h2>\n<ol>\n<li>As everyone knows, <strong>red roses <\/strong>mean love. The giver of three red roses says, \u201cI love you passionately.\u201d<\/li>\n<li><strong>Pink roses<\/strong> suggest gentility, grace, and high romance.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Yellow roses<\/strong> speak to the gladness of heart in loving another.<\/li>\n<li><strong>White roses <\/strong>say, \u201cI\u2019m worthy,\u201d and stand for purity. The understated elegance of the white rose makes it a timeless bridal choice.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Blue salvia <\/strong>says, \u201cI think of you,\u201d and makes an enchanting addition to the bride and groom\u2019s floral arrangements.<\/li>\n<li>From ancient times on, <strong>myrtle <\/strong>has meant love and passion. Closely tied with Aphrodite, true myrtle can be tough to find in cooler parts of the world, but ask around at floral shops and herb farms.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Lavender <\/strong>means devotion, with its nostalgic fragrance and purple blooms. Lavender is another fine choice for the couple\u2019s floral arrangements.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2 class=\"subtitle\">Herbs for Lasting Togetherness<\/h2>\n<ol>\n<li>Ladies tucked sprigs of <strong>thyme <\/strong>into the armor of knights due for battle. Thyme symbolizes strength and courage.<\/li>\n<li>Beautiful blue-green <strong>rue<\/strong> is the herb of grace. In the language of flowers, it stands for vision and virtue.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Chamomile\u2019s <\/strong>tiny daisy-like blooms and sweet apple scent makes it perfect for weddings. A marriage requires patience, which is precisely what chamomile stands for.<\/li>\n<li>Add a dusty sprig of <strong>sage <\/strong> to bouquets for long life, good heath, and domestic sweetness.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Of course, no herbal wedding would be complete without rosemary. This ancient herb of remembrance deserves a spot in all your bouquets and floral designs. Give rosemary pride of place in two large pots guarding the entrance to the church, on either side of the altar, or at the reception entrance, to greet each guest with its memorable scent. Weave dried rosemary into the herbal mix for tossing when the happy couple leaves. And when all\u2019s said and done, the bride and groom should bring a pot home to remember their day of joy.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_45356\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-45356\" style=\"width: 600px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-45356\" src=\"https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/90500aa436ee97fb2cb581e13e6dbec7.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"448\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/90500aa436ee97fb2cb581e13e6dbec7.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/90500aa436ee97fb2cb581e13e6dbec7-300x224.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/90500aa436ee97fb2cb581e13e6dbec7-500x373.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-45356\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-45356\" src=\"https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/90500aa436ee97fb2cb581e13e6dbec7.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"448\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/90500aa436ee97fb2cb581e13e6dbec7.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/90500aa436ee97fb2cb581e13e6dbec7-300x224.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/90500aa436ee97fb2cb581e13e6dbec7-500x373.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/noscript> Pinterest<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<section class=\"entry-content clearfix\">\n<h2 class=\"subtitle\">Final Thoughts<\/h2>\n<p>Your personal touches become all the more meaningful when you allude to your chosen flowers and herbs in your wedding program.
