Choosing wedding flowers should be one of the fun parts of planning, but with so many beautiful blooms, colors, and combinations to choose from, it can quickly start to feel overwhelming.

If you’re not sure where to begin, our FiftyFlowers floral consultants have a few tried-and-true favorites to help you get started!

These are the collections, flowers, and greenery our experts find themselves recommending again and again. Think of them as a starting point, not a rulebook. Expert recommendations can help narrow down your options while still leaving plenty of room to bring in your own colors, textures, and personal style.

Favorite Signature Collections

Wildflower Wishes

For anyone who loves the wildflower look but isn't sure where to take their color palette, Wildflower Wishes is a great place to begin.

Its neutral foundation makes it incredibly versatile. Add soft pastels for a romantic look, brighter blooms for more personality, or richer colors for a fall-inspired feel. It's especially helpful when you know the overall vibe you want but haven't settled on every color yet.

White Wedding Essentials

If classic wedding flowers are more your style, White Wedding Essentials brings together traditional favorites like roses, stock, and hydrangeas.

Keep the palette crisp and white for a timeless look, or personalize it by mixing in blush and other soft pastel flowers.

Cloud Dancer

Want white flowers with pops of color but not a lot of greenery? Cloud Dancer is a beautiful option.

The mix of blooms creates an airy, whimsical feeling while still looking polished and romantic. It's a great choice when you want the flowers themselves to provide plenty of texture, movement, and visual interest.

Watercolor Gardens

Like a watercolor painting brought to life, Watercolor Gardens blends dreamy shades of blush, peach, ivory, and soft blue with gorgeous garden-inspired blooms. Ranunculus, roses, sweet peas, snapdragons, delphinium, and more come together for a look that feels airy, romantic, and effortlessly whimsical.

Snow White

Classic, elegant, and full of beautiful texture, Snow White is a favorite foundation for an all-white floral look. One of the standouts is the snapdragon, which adds height and movement while giving arrangements that loose, garden-inspired feel.

Keep it completely white for a timeless look, or use it as a neutral base and add a favorite color to make the palette your own.

Butter Yellow

Bright, cheerful, and full of warmth, Butter Yellow is a beautiful starting point for anyone dreaming of a sunny, romantic wedding palette. The soft yellow tones feel fresh and uplifting without being overpowering, making this collection a lovely choice for garden-inspired celebrations, spring and summer weddings, and anyone drawn to a joyful pop of color.

One of our favorite ways to personalize this collection is by adding blue to the palette. Blue hydrangeas or delphinium pair beautifully with the buttery yellow tones, adding contrast and dimension while keeping the overall look soft and romantic. It’s a fresh color combination that feels both playful and elegant.

Favorite DIY Flower Kits

Not sure you want to build your flower recipe from scratch? A DIY flower kit can give you an expert-designed starting point while still letting you experience the fun of arranging the flowers yourself.

Here are a few of our consultants' favorites.

Timeless Dusty Blue

The name really says it all.

Timeless Dusty Blue is a consultant-favorite DIY flower kit for creating a dreamy, romantic look with timeless blue tones. If dusty blue is already all over your wedding inspiration board, this kit gives you an easy way to bring that vision to life.

Wildflower Wedding

For loose, garden-inspired arrangements that feel freshly gathered, the Wildflower Wedding DIY Flower Kit is another favorite.

It's a natural choice for anyone drawn to that effortless wildflower aesthetic and looking for a little expert guidance when selecting their flowers.

Ethereal Gardens

For a soft wildflower or pastel wedding palette, the Ethereal Gardens DIY Flower Kit is another expert favorite.

Its garden-inspired combination is a lovely choice for anyone dreaming of arrangements that feel airy, romantic, and naturally gathered.

Consultant-Favorite Flowers to Add to Your Order

Starting with a collection or DIY flower kit can make choosing your flowers much simpler, but adding a few bulk blooms is where you can really make the look your own.

Here are some of our consultants' favorite flowers for adding color, height, texture, or extra stems to your arrangements.

Delphinium

Delphinium is a favorite for adding height and beautiful blue color.

Bulk blue delphinium pairs especially well with Citrus Punch, while light blue delphinium can be a beautiful addition to yellow palettes like Butter Yellow. Its tall shape also makes it an excellent line flower for giving arrangements movement and dimension.

Bahlias

Bahlias are a consultant favorite for their beautiful, full appearance and great value. They’re also a great substitute for dahlias, giving you a similar lush, statement-making look while being an easy option to work into your flower recipe.

They’re especially helpful when you need more stems to create fuller bouquets and centerpieces without stretching your flower budget.

Snapdragons

Snapdragons are another hardworking flower for DIY arrangements. Their long shape adds height and structure, while their stem count can help create the abundance you're looking for.

They're especially beautiful when you want arrangements with a loose, garden-inspired shape.

Nigella

For a delicate bloom that can make a surprisingly big impact, try Blue or White Nigella. Its airy texture adds beautiful detail and movement to bouquets and centerpieces without competing with your focal flowers.

Cornflower

For the wildflower look, Cornflower is a natural choice.

Available in a variety of colors, these charming blooms add that freshly gathered feel to bud vases, centerpieces, and bouquets.

Butterfly Ranunculus

Planning a late-summer or fall wedding? Rusty Orange Butterfly Ranunculus is a favorite for bringing warm seasonal color into the mix.

Its delicate petals and organic shape can add softness and movement while giving your arrangements a beautiful autumnal touch.

Feverfew

Cheerful, daisy-like Feverfew is perfect for adding a relaxed garden feeling. It works especially well when you're leaning into wildflower-inspired arrangements or want to break up larger blooms with something smaller and more playful.

Carnations

Don't overlook carnations when you're planning your DIY flowers.

Both standard and mini carnations are affordable ways to add color, depth, and volume to arrangements. Standard carnations have a fuller bloom that can work beautifully as a focal flower, while mini carnations make an excellent filler. Both are incredibly versatile and work well in everything from smaller arrangements and bouquets to large-scale floral designs.

Want to change their look? Try gently pulling a few petals from the center to create a more open, poppy-inspired bloom.

Favorite Greenery to Finish the Look

Sometimes the missing ingredient isn't another flower, it's greenery!

Italian Ruscus is a favorite all-purpose option that works across many different wedding styles. Its long, elegant shape makes it easy to incorporate into bouquets, centerpieces, and other floral arrangements.

For something a little different, try Pennycress. Its airy texture brings in fresh green color without creating an overly leafy look.

A newer favorite is Pistachia Greenery. Its branching shape and natural texture add beautiful fullness and movement to arrangements, making it an easy choice for creating that organic, garden-inspired look.

Start With Expert Favorites, Then Make Them Yours

You don't need to know every flower name or have your entire floral recipe figured out before you begin. Start with what you do know!

Maybe you love the effortless feeling of wildflowers. Maybe dusty blue has been part of your vision from day one. Or maybe you know you want classic white wedding flowers but aren't sure what else to pair with them.

That's where expert favorites can help.

Start with a collection or DIY flower kit that feels close to your vision, then add the flowers, colors, greenery, and textures that speak to you. Having an expert-approved foundation can take some of the uncertainty out of choosing your flowers while still giving you the freedom to create something completely your own.

Your wedding flowers don't have to follow someone else's formula. A little expert guidance can simply make it easier to find the combination that feels like you!
