All About Anemone DIY Wedding Flowers

Anemones are a beautiful and unique flower that can add a touch of elegance to any DIY wedding. While they can be tricky to work with, their beauty is well worth the effort. With a little bit of knowledge and the right supplies, you can create stunning anemone arrangements that will wow your guests.

Fresh anemone wedding flowers are the perfect way to add unique, bold details to your floral arrangements. With more than 150 species and a variety of shades, there's an anemone flower for every bridal bouquet, bridesmaid bouquets and reception centerpieces. Anemones look great paired with other blossoms such as roses and hydrangeas, too.

Choosing the right type of fresh anemone wedding flowers is vital to your vision — but it's nothing to stress over! Here at Flower Moxie, we know how to make your wedding sparkle like the photos on your Pinterest board. If you have anemones on your best blooms list, here is everything you need to know before you add them to your bouquet.

Characteristics of Fresh Anemone Wedding Flowers

With tissue-paper-like petals and distinctive raised centers, these unique flowers are becoming a fast favorite among DIY brides and event planners. Why? Here are some of their notable features:

• Bold but delicate appearance
• Unique contrast
• Romantic touch
• Distinctive focal point in each bloom
• Complement other flowers well
• Refreshing personality and elegance
• Perfect for traditional and modern arrangements
• Soft petals that gently cup in a tightly-clustered center
• Blooms with slightly nodding heads that open about 2 inches wide
• Vibrant colors such as shades of blue, red, magenta, purple and white with blue or purple centers

Using Anemone Flowers in Your Wedding

The first step is to choose the right type of anemone for your DIY wedding. There are many different varieties of anemones, so it's important to select one that will complement your wedding theme and color scheme. Once you've decided on the perfect anemone variety, it's time to purchase your flowers. 

So how can you make the most of fresh anemone wedding flowers? These special blooms are typically considered an "accent flower," which means they work best in bouquets with other types of blooms. Use them to add texture and visual interest along with other flowers in your arrangements. With their cupped blossom and dark center, anemones will both stand out and draw your floral design together. These beautiful flowers are best used in:

• Bridal and bridesmaid bouquets: Let your anemone flowers speak for themselves in the star arrangements of your ceremony — your bouquets. Whether you pair them with traditional blooms like roses or unique accents like lavender, anemones will add a dreamy, delicate touch to your bridal and bridesmaid bouquets. We recommend five to seven stems per bouquet for the bride and three stems for each bridesmaid arrangement.
• Centerpieces: Add unique elegance to your table arrangements by incorporating three to five stems of sweet anemone flowers to each centerpiece.
• Large arrangements: While they're too delicate for small arrangements like corsages and boutonnieres, anemone wedding flowers will look lovely in any large arrangement. Use 10-20 stems in your most luscious and large assortments.
• Bud Vases:  Looking for a way to mix up your wedding decor? Incorporate bud vases holding one or two anemones each throughout your venue. Scatter them down the length of your ceremony aisle, use them as centerpieces on their own or add them to larger arrangements.
• Corsages and boutonnieres: Unfortunately, the tissue-paper like petals of anemones make these flowers unsuitable for corsages and boutonnieres. They will wilt quickly and bruise if touched too much. However, baby's breath, roses and other small blooms work well with in these arrangements. If you are totally digging the anemone flower boutonniere or corsage, we do offer Silk Anemone. These are fool-proof and so realistic looking!

To get started on your arrangements, you'll need to gather some supplies. Anemones are delicate flowers, so you'll need to use a gentle hand when arranging them. Choose a light-weight vase that won't tip over easily, and fill it with fresh water. You'll also need a sharp knife or pair of scissors, floral tape, and florist wire.

Picking the Perfect Anemone Flowers for Your Wedding

Now that you know how to use anemone flowers in your DIY wedding, it's time to learn how to pick them! Here are three factors you should consider when selecting your blooms:

• Color: As we mentioned before, anemones come in a variety of colors. When choosing the right shade for your arrangement, think about what will complement your other wedding flowers and décor. If you're using light-colored blooms in your bouquet, try adding a pop of color with blue or purple anemones. If your other flowers are on the bolder side, opt for white anemones with a blue or purple center.
• Seasonality: Fresh anemone wedding flowers are in season from late winter to early spring. If you're getting married during this time, you're in luck! But if not, don't worry — we will be able to get these blooms for you by special request, but please keep in mind this is not always guaranteed and the size and quality could be less when out of season.
• Price: Anemones are a bit fancier, and the cost will reflect that. When budgeting for your arrangements, keep this price range in mind as you decide how many stems to use.

With their bold but delicate appearance, unique contrast, and distinctive focal point, anemones are a great addition to any DIY wedding bouquet or arrangement. Use our tips to choose the perfect fresh anemone wedding

Meaning of Anemone Wedding Flowers

Anemones are a member of the buttercup family and are native to temperate regions of the world. They have a long history of being used in weddings, as they are said to represent hope and purity. In ancient Greece, anemones were associated with the wind god, Anemone. According to legend, the red anemone flower grew from the ground where Aphrodite's tears fell after her lover Adonis was killed by a wild boar. These flowers are also said to represent the fleeting nature of love. The Victorians believed that anemones symbolized anticipation and that giving someone this flower meant you were eagerly awaiting their arrival.

Today, anemones are still a popular choice for weddings and are often used to represent the hope and promise of love. If you're looking for flowers that will make a statement and wow your guests, anemones are a great choice! These beautiful blooms come in a variety of colors, so you can find the perfect shade to match your wedding colors. Anemones come in a variety of colors, but the most popular varieties for weddings are white, pink, and burgundy.

When choosing anemones for your bridal bouquet, it is important to select the best looking flowers that are free of blemishes. Set those stunners aside and use the rest for centerpieces! Anemones should be kept cool and away from direct sunlight before your event.
