Flowers are a great way to add a touch of elegance and beauty to any event or wedding. And when it comes to choosing flowers, there are so many options out there that it can often be overwhelming. But if you're looking for something that's classy, modern, and high-end, then Anthuriums are a killer choice. Let's take a closer look at what makes Anthuriums a bangin flower for events and weddings.

What sets Anthuriums apart is their super unique appearance. They have a sleek, modern look that's perfect for contemporary events and weddings. And because they are hardy and long-lasting blooms, you can be sure that they will stay looking fresh and beautiful throughout your event or wedding.

Unlike traditional flowers such as roses or carnations, Anthuriums have an entirely different shape and texture that further accentuates their uniqueness. Their signature characteristic is their broad, glossy, heart-shaped spathe - the colorful part often mistaken as the flower's petal.

The actual flower takes the form of a spadix, a spike of minute flowers that emerges from the spathe's base, adding to the Anthurium's unconventional appeal. Pro tip: NEVER touch the spadix, as doing so will cause it to turn brown.

The texture of Anthuriums is unlike the soft, velvety petals of a rose or the ruffled, layered texture of a carnation. Instead, Anthuriums possess a smooth, almost plastic-like texture, which contributes to their hardiness and long-lasting nature.

One of the standout features of Anthuriums is that they are typically long-lasting and hardy blooms. This means that they work well in all arrangements, but particularly tropical arrangements. And while not every bloom will be perfect, it's not uncommon for lighter-hued Anthurium to show slight creases or brown spots due to the texture of the bloom. But you shouldn't worry too much about these small imperfections as they don't show up once they're in arrangements, and during photo editing they'll be all but gone. If you do want to correct any blemishes, we recommend having a can of Design Master spray paint on hand.

Another thing to keep in mind when working with Anthuriums is that you should avoid refrigerating them. They do best when they are out of cold temperatures, so make sure to keep them at room temperature. And if you've ordered Anthuriums and they arrive with a plastic bag covering the bloom, take care when removing the bag as you don't want to damage the bloom.

Anthuriums come in many different colors, so you're sure to find one that fits in with your event or wedding color scheme. We also sell hand-painted Anthuriums for a look that's incredibly unique and beautiful!

Anthuriums, with their unique shape and vibrant hues, can seamlessly blend into a variety of wedding themes. They would fit perfectly within a tropical theme, where the rich greens, reds, and pinks of Anthuriums would couple with other exotic blooms, palm fronds, and tropical fruit for a lush, seaside ambiance.

A boho-themed wedding could also utilize Anthuriums' distinct shapes and hues in loose, wildflower arrangements, adding a pop of color to neutral tones, macramé, and vintage rugs.

For a classic look, single-color Anthuriums, particularly white or red, could be used for a sleek, elegant touch among lavish chandeliers, candlelight, and abundant greenery.

Finally, Anthuriums could add an unexpected twist to a lush, garden-style wedding, offering a fresh, modern feel amid other lush florals, soft textiles and mismatched glassware.

Brighter wedding color palettes would be an ideal stage for the use of hot pink Anthuriums, dark red anthuriums, and bright red anthuriums. The bold, vivid color of these flowers lends a fun and cheerful vibe to any wedding day. Used in centerpieces, they would deliver a striking visual impact, beautifully contrasting with other vibrant decor elements. Moreover, the unique geometric shape of Anthuriums complements anyone's love for simple, bold forms, making it the perfect floral choice.

A wedding with a forest or garden theme would be the perfect event to feature soft pink and peach Anthuriums. These gentle hues naturally evoke a whimsical and romantic ambiance. The unique and elegant shape of Anthuriums would add a high end touch to the event, making it feel like a page taken right out of a fairytale.

Use these flowers in table centerpieces, archways, or even as a unique component of a floral chandelier. The soft pink and peach tones would harmonize beautifully with gold accents, delicate fairy lights, and lush greenery. Soft pink and peach Anthuriums will transport your guests into a magical garden setting. Flower Moxie's Mixed Pink Anthurium box will perfectly suit any gathering!

Incorporating Anthuriums into various floral arrangements can yield stunning results. In contemporary arrangements, Anthuriums' bold shapes and colors can serve as focal points, creating a visual statement. Pair them with monstera leaves and bird of paradise flowers for a modern, tropical vibe. Alternatively, for a classic and elegant arrangement, use white Anthuriums as primary blooms, complemented by roses and baby's breath to create a timeless look.

In rustic arrangements, Anthuriums can add a pop of color and texture. Intertwine them with greenery, wildflowers, and seasonal fruits for a natural, earthy feel. For a whimsical arrangement, combine different color Anthuriums with playful elements like colored tapered candles and colorful table settings. No matter what your style or theme may be, Anthuriums offer versatility and beauty that can elevate any floral arrangement.

Anthuriums are often considered a luxury accent flower due to their exotic appeal, lush colors, unique shapes, and long-lasting blooms. They exude an aura of sophistication and elegance, making them a desirable choice for high-end events and upscale floral designs. Their hardy nature allows them to hold their form and color for extended periods, ensuring that arrangements remain fresh and vibrant, adding to their perceived value.

Furthermore, their versatility in blending with various themes and styles makes them a preferred choice for bespoke events, complementing the exclusivity that luxury demands. The rich palette of Anthuriums, ranging from deep reds to soft pinks and pristine whites, offers an added layer of customization, enabling designers to create personalized arrangements that align with the individual aesthetic of each event or client.

And while they are considered a Luxury Accent Flower, they are still quite affordable. We recommend using 4-5 stems for a bridal bouquet, 1-3 stems for a bridesmaid bouquet, and 3-4 stems for centerpieces. Due to their bold appearance, adding a couple of blooms to any bouquet or centerpiece will have the perfect impact on your guests.

There you have it! Anthuriums are a great choice if you're looking for a flower that's a lil classy, a lil modern, and totally high-end. They are hardy, long-lasting blooms that work well in many arrangements, especially tropical arrangements. With a variety of different colors to choose from, Anthuriums are sure to fit in with your event or wedding color scheme.
