Nowadays, everyone wants to do something different and some brides are opting for succulents instead of flowers. If you?re considering this too, but aren?t sure you can get the same versatility out of succulents, think again. There are tons of different types out there (start looking on Pinterest and you?ll immediately see what I mean). Some of these little plants are super fun, with crazy colors and shapes leading to so many possibilities. But how does one pull off succulent d?cor for a wedding? Grab your watering can and trowel and we?ll dive right into it.

What Are Succulents?

growing your own for some DIY wedding florals, know that in the spring, succulents like lots of sun as well as lots of water to quench their thirst. In the winter, they prefer a nice window full of sunlight and only need to be watered about once every month, depending on the variety.

Getting Your Succulents

reduce your decor costs and bring a nice personal touch to your celebration. However, this may only be feasible if you have the room to keep a bunch of succulents around your home.

Using fake succulents works, too! You can still accomplish a lot of decorating ideas with them and then utilize real ones for favors or things like that. That way, you don?t have as much responsibility for growing and taking care of them. This route is perfect for those who don?t have green thumbs and don?t know anyone who could help.

Sometimes, the professionals are the best option for getting the right touch, so ask a floral shop to do succulents for you. Poke around and see if any of your local florists offer these plants as part of their catalog. The only concern with this route is it could become pricey pretty quickly, especially if you?re asking them to do special things with the succulents. However, it would be way easier than doing it yourself.

How to Decorate with Them
