How to use lavender on your big day
Did you know that lavender
represents beauty and femininity? It is
considered to be the ‘grown-up’ pink! So
what isn’t to love – with its pretty purple shades, using it to add some colour
and detail to your big day is simple!
To show you just how a little bit of lavender
can create spectacular details for your wedding, here are our favourite ways to
use it:
The bouquet
Lavender is a very versatile crop, and using it in
or for your bouquet will add texture and a delicate scent as you walk down the
aisle. Using lavender on its own for a
small posy style bouquet will look chic and rustic. You can also add it to a selection of fresh
wild flowers for a country-style look. Our favourite, of course, is adding it to wheat to make pretty wheat
and lavender bouquets. Add a
few dried or fresh flower heads to compliment your wedding theme.

Venue
Decoration
Lavender is perfect for using as additional venue
décor. Whatever your theme or style,
placing bunches
in vases, pots, jars or even old wooden boxes can really add a special touch to
your venue decoration. Be creative,
place lavender filled containers up stairways to lead to your reception room,
down the aisle to make a lovely aisle lining, in windows to continue your
wedding theme throughout your venue and why not place large bunches into tall
containers outside the entrance to a marquee to glam it up.

Table
Settings
Deciding on what to do with your tables can be
difficult. You might have a fantastic
centrepiece, but why not use lavender to add those extra little touches to your
tables. Place a sprig or two on your
guests’ plate or attach to napkins with a nametag for a rustic place
setting. You could even scatter some
loose lavender grain on crisp white tablecloths for some added texture and
scent.

DIY table
décor
Are you adding some DIY touches to your
wedding? Use lavender to make some
simple additions to your table décor. Tie small sprigs around glass jars with some string, raffia or ribbon
and place a candle inside the jar for an elegant table decoration that will add
some romance when the candle is lit. Compliment these with some larger candles (not to be lit) with some
larger sprigs of lavender tied around the middle. Don’t forget that adding a sprinkle of
confetti to your tables is another great way of adding some additional simple
décor.
Chair
decorations
Lavender bunched together gives off a vibrant
colour splash and scent. If you want to
add a touch of natural charm to your reception, tie lavender bunches to chair
backs. They also look wonderful teamed
with wheat
to break up the colour.
Confetti
Lavender grain is
perfect to use as alternative to confetti. You can also add lavender grain to your favourite natural petal confetti
mix, which will not only look great on your photos, it will also smell amazing
too!
