Dried Flowers Are Sustainable and Eco-Friendly
Fresh flowers that are harvested in the peak summer months are typically dried to be used in bouquets, wedding arrangements, centerpieces and hair pieces later on. This practice is sustainable, less wasteful and more environmentally friendly, because fresh flowers need constant cooling and water. Dried flower arrangements can be made in advance and delivered to the wedding venue way in advance without worrying about wilting. They are long lasting and can be reused or repurposed into festive biodegradable flower confetti for your friend’s wedding. You can love your dried flowers for years to come in many different forms.
Dried Bridal Flower Crowns and Wreaths
While dried flower bridal crowns and wreaths are not for everyone, a floral headpiece can make any bride feel like royalty on her wedding day. From unique extravagant headpieces to boho wreaths reminiscent of Scandinavian Midsummer, wearing one of these wedding accessories is an easy way to elevate a bridal look.

A bridal crown, along with the bridal wreath and veil, is probably the oldest decorative form of headdress worn by women. With it the bride would symbolize her purity, and it was also a status symbol for her family. The bridal crown was especially popular in farming areas. In several regions the bride takes her crown off after the church service and hangs it over the wedding table as a sign of the peace.
