Daisy Theme Weddings

There's reason behind the old saying, "fresh as a daisy."

Because when brides of all ages want to express the youthful side of love, nothing beats the daisy in all its guises: from the traditional Shasta, with its echoes of nostalgia and innocence, to the practically-punk Gerber and its contemporary colors.

Shasta Daisy Style

coral daisies wedding wreath No other flower says "young love" like the Shasta daisy, with its cheery face and paper-white petals. Dear to blushing brides everywhere, the Shasta begs for sayings like, "he loves me, he loves me not — he loves me ... we tied the knot!"

Silhouettes and textures that suit the shasta to a 'tee': eyelet and cotton fabrics. And gowns with a retro-style bell skirt and slender waist, or chic tea-lengths, worn with a flyaway veil.

Reedy, youthful brides look gorgeous in a simple A-line or column style — especially against vibrant greens of a garden or park.

The Shasta also plays well with white organza bows and delicate pastels like lavender, mint green, or baby-chick yellow. They look lovely paired with pastel roses, and in hand-tied bouquets dressed up with pink or yellow satin wraps.

They're a bit fragile, though, so resort to silks for anything like a pomander ball, anything without a water source, or anything your flower girl might carry around.

Gerber Daisy Drama

Gerbers are the Vivienne Westwoods of the flower world. The brides who love them also love design, and modern shocks of color. The most popular palette for Gerber-lovers is probably bright pink and orange. A close second might be pink and green. For Autumn brides, fiery combinations of yellow, orange and red set the scene.

But brides are also designing around Gerbers' purples, peaches and sultry magentas. And let's not forget that Gerbers really pop against dark brown and black (both super-popular shades for bridesmaids' attire. Coincidence?)

All Dolled Up With Daisies

Here are some adorable things we've seen done with daisies: floating gerber daisies

Wheatgrass Trays

That rich explosion of green makes daisies look fabulous, whether they're white or fuchsia. Take note: the fragile stems need to be wired!

Floating Heads

Single Shasta flower heads floating in votives or shot glasses: adorable. Larger Gerber heads can sometimes fill a whole fishbowl: finish the look with a bright satin ribbon. Or toss these blooms en masse in fountains or pools.

Flashy Splashes

The brightest gerbers call for dramatic echoes elsewhere in your event. Dress your bridesmaids in bright dupioni sashes (salmon or tangerine, say). Swag the ceilings with shiny fabrics to match. Wrap each cake layer in bold, patterned ribbons. Rustle up tangerine parasols and saturated linens and chair covers. Serve a menu of signature drinks in each of your Gerber colors!

Ribbons on Ribbons

Pick a bright palette to match your favorite Gerber daisies, then wrap your vases and votive holders in several layers of ribbon of different widths. For example, layer a bright orange inch-wide satin ribbon over a corrugated two-inch-wide fuchsia ribbon.

Fruit and Flowers

Choose Gerbers of a citrusy hue, then fill your centerpiece containers with sliced lemons, limes or oranges in bright, coordinating colors.

Back to Basics

Just because you love all-white doesn't mean you have to pass on Gerbers: they come in bridal white, too. And with their oversized heads, they've got all the charm of Shastas, plus a fresh and modern spin.

Rustic Roots

Gerbers and Shastas alike can add rustic punch to any affair. Just combine them with a little raffia or twine, birds' nest bouquet collars, galvanized pails, or gingham and mason jars.

I would like to do a centerpiece with cylinder vases and white floating candle. Heres my idea….would like to have daisies (preferably silk) in the water underneath with maybe clear marbles. How can I go about doing this? I have a vision, just don’t know if it will work…..thinking the daisies will float, which I dont want them to do! Help!

Kelley,
The marbles should anchor the stem.
* For example
* another example
On the daisy if you choose to cut the stem leave just a tad bit of stem and anchor clear fishing line to bottom of stem and anchor to something heavier to bottom of vase, it will stay down.

Thank you! Here is what I have so far….note I had only one cylinder vase and one floating candle…so I improvised with drinking glasses…just to get a feel of what it would look like.

My best friend is getting married next fall, and her favorite flowers are gerbera daisy, so I wanted to do a bridal shower for her with a ruby and spiced pumpkin gerber daisy theme…the problem is I haven’t been able to find decent looking paper supplies (plates, napkins etc.) I want something very simple, with a plain white background, and a single daisy smack dab in the middle…has anyone seen anything like that?

Fiona,
Also do you like soft or brighter colors, what color is the guys wearing? I am trying to get a idea of your wedding so I can pick some ideas. There are many colors that would work. You could pair corals and green or hot pink and coral, just a single color or a mix. yellows with coral would be beautiful. Do you have any favorite colors that would compliment your setting?

I am getting hitched on June 11, 2011 and when I saw the posted photos of the different colored bm dresses, I flipped! I LOVE LOVE LOVE it! My MOH is wearing eggplant purple and I told the rest of the girls to get a dress in tangerine, but now I’m thinking I want a few of them in bright pink as well. I never thought I liked daisies until I discovered Gerberas (kind of like I never thought I liked diamonds until I got one on my finger!). I would love for them to wear silk Gerbers in their hair on the day of. I’m still struggling with the bouquet though. Should I include roses or just stick with gerbers? I want a pop of purple in there too.

It depends on what you want to use. Most recommend using real and sometimes silk can be more expensive.

I have always noticed that the weddings I remembered most were the ones with little details to make it special. Go with real ones. They are probably cheaper than silk and add that “little touch” to show you care about your guests.

Not at all. There is nothing prettier than a color scheme that allows white daisies to shine. If you add other colors they can get lost. You can choose to add a “few” white roses though.

Use blue as accent colors, but use the daisy’s as your main flower. Maybe blue ribbons or bows around a boquet of daisys and roses. Play with colors you like.

It depends on the build and style of wedding your having.
* here is a site to help

I am thinking that your bouquet could have the lily and daisies and the bm’s could carry a simple clutch of daisies. it would also look amazing to color coordinate the bouquets to the dresses. i have seen this done, with the bride carrying all the colors in her bouquet.

Hi I am getting married in September 2010. I am having a fall theme, with an outdoor, garden ceremony and a reception at a restaurant that used to be an old school house. I would love to have gerbera daisies in various fall colours for myself and my one maid of honor to carry.
Any suggestions on what to do for the men’s boutineer’s, would a mini gerbera be okay? I have heard they may wilt quickly when done for boutineers?

Your right they do wilt quickly. I would go for a unique boutonniere like greenery or fall foliage.

or you could axe the boutonniere all together and use a nice fall colored pocket square.

Hi! I am getting married this August and I am having an outdoor wedding and indoor reception. My girls are wearing a knee length fuschia colored dress. I am in love with gerber daisies and wanted the girls to carry yellow(my favorite color!!) flowers with maybe a splash of pink and I would carry yellow, white, fuschia (as close to their dress as i can find) gerber daisies. Can you give me ideas for both the bm’s flowers, my own, and centerpieces for the reception?? Thanks!

I’m getting married in August & the main color (bridesmaid dresses & groomsmen vests) is Apple Red. We want to do the reception more casual, almost the feel of a picnic (grilling out instead of a formal reception). We’re thinking red gingham table cloths and daisies. I have an idea for the bouquets but I’m not sure how else to incorporate the ideas into the wedding and reception (pew bows, colors - I don’t want to match the red, but compliment it, reception decoration, etc) Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks!

P.S. I’ve attached the idea for the bridal bouquet that I found…

This is about as good as I could get. It’s another wedding that was held there. It’s a small chapel type. It’s in our home church, the old sanctuary that’s only used for weddings & such now.

The reception we’re not sure about yet - either at the church in the fellowship all or at the local community center. Both are rectangle in shape…basic hall look to it.

Hi,
I am getting married by the sea in Mallorca in a quaint little church followed by a reception at a trendy beach club, which has neutral colours; creams, natural wood and white being the predominant colours, as well as a panoramic view of the sea!
I love daisies and was considering having gerberas as the main flower, but am struggling with a colour scheme.
My fiance will be wearing a navy suit (waistcoat & cravat colous not yet chosen) and my bridesmaid will be wearing navy chiffon maxi dresses. My dress is white white.

Where do I fit stripes into this already FUN color scheme?
Should I go with FUN colors on top of the hot pink and blk & white?

I am doing an outdoor wedding in July of 2011. My theme all started when we began discussing our wedding cake and I decided on a Funfetti Cake. I want something that I love but is also unexpected. My fiance proposed to me with a bouquet of daisies and I thought it would be wonderful to combine the daisy idea with the bright colors in funfetti (considering it is a summer wedding) and thus the gerber daisies. My bridesmaids are wearing black cocktail dresses and I want to throw the punches of color in with the flowers. Each girl will be accented in different bright colors (hot pink, aqua, orange, purple, yellow). The accents will be in the heels, something in their hair, and then in the bouquets. I love the gerber daisies but I don’t know if the colors will be bright enough to create the effect that I want. Also, I want the daisy theme to run throughout and was hoping for bright centerpiece, cake, boutineer ideas. Let me know if you have any thoughts. Thanks! :)
