Amaryllis
The queen of winter weddings. Amaryllis boasts dramatic, sculptural blooms in classic whites, deep reds, and soft blush tones. Perfect for statement arrangements, pedestal designs, or as a striking focal flower in bouquets.
Rutland Florals tip: Pair amaryllis with trailing ivy or seasonal evergreens for an elegant, wintry look that feels luxurious without being overdone.
🌿 Evergreen Foliage
Winter weddings are the season of greenery. Think fragrant spruce, pine, fir, and eucalyptus. These add texture, fullness, and that unmistakable festive scent. Perfect for garlands, table runners, or beautiful pew-end arrangements.
🌼 Hellebores (Christmas Roses)
Delicate and quietly elegant, hellebores bloom in muted tones of ivory, blush, and plum. They’re ideal for adding subtle detail to bouquets and buttonholes and work beautifully in more intimate, romantic arrangements.
🍇 Berries & Seed Heads
Hypericum berries, snowberries, and dried elements such as seed pods or grasses bring texture and a sense of seasonality to December florals. They add warmth and a natural, wintery feel that’s perfect for this time of year.
🌹 Winter Roses
While British garden roses may be sleeping, premium imported roses are at their peak quality in December. They add a timeless softness to bouquets, complementing the richness of seasonal foliage and berries.
❄ Seasonal Extras
Clematis, anemones, and ranunculus often start to make an appearance later in the month, adding delicate movement and a romantic edge to winter wedding designs.
