We love the Chinese style and we like to see it used or incorporated in wedding dresses, wedding cakes and bridal bouquets. Compared to other styles, the Chinese style is very extravagant, sophisticated, luxurious, eye-catchy, vibrant and dynamic. Now, it all depends on the filed we’re talking about. For wedding dresses the Chinese style can be defined through ample, pompous and colorful designs, while for wedding flower arrangements the things are quite the opposite!
The flowers and colors used for these Hong Kong inspired wedding flower arrangements that we’re showing here are very refined, delicate, subtle and natural. The pink peonies are the principal types of flowers used for these centerpieces and bouquets, and this is because both the pink nuance and the peony flower are symbolic for the Chinese culture. Anyway, the colors you can choose for your own Chinese inspired wedding flower arrangements can be brighter or more vivacious than this, according to the theme, formality, season and location or amplitude of the wedding you’re planning.
The precious peonies can be found in lots of bolder shades of pink, purple and red. We recommend the fuchsia, hot pink and violet or mauve peonies to those of you who want to obtain a more provocative, sensual and appealing look or effect. On the other hand, those of you who are planning a refined, chic, discreet and intimate wedding can go for the pale pink, blush or coral pink peonies.
If you’re going for the bold romantic look you should use the deep red peonies. Combine them with white peonies and the effect will be even more dramatic, original, impressive and heart melting! You don’t have to fly all the way up to Hong Kong in order to plan a Chinese themed wedding or to use these superb arrangements that we’ve posted here. Anyone can recreate the Chinese vibrancy or flair anywhere else, as long as the accessories, the recipients, the colors and the decorative items are in theme. The cherry blossoms are other symbolical flowers used in romantic oriental weddings.
