Keeping It Simple

Orchids are one of the hardiest cut-flowers you can buy. As such, they can afford you more flexibility on the day of your wedding. For example, if you would rather pick-up your flowers earlier in the day as opposed to having them delivered, orchids are a perfect option as you don't have to be nearly as concerned about the blooms wilting or bruising. Nonetheless, you should always try to keep them cool—sitting in a hot car will cause problems for any cut flower.

If you are planning a small wedding (or even a huge one), orchids are the perfect way to add tasteful simplicity into your day.
