Flowers for your Destination Wedding in Cyprus

Flowers remain an integral part of your wedding even if you are getting married abroad. Even if you have opted for an intimate elopement style ceremony you will want a bridal bouquet, but most Brides and Grooms will be thinking about ceremony flowers and decorations for their reception.

Anything you can have for a wedding in the UK, or any other country, will most likely be available in Cyprus. However, the cost will depend on whether the flowers are in season and native or require a speciality service to supply them.

As we suggest in our Yellow Moodboard Article, one option is to visit the local florists and garden centres and buy small pot plants for table centrepieces, you could even purchase a small bouquet directly from their shop. While this means not knowing in advance what may be available, it is an ideal option for those on a budget or looking for a more eclectic or country feel.

Anemones these very delicate flowers in shades of pink, lilac, white, yellow and red, which can be seen growing wild in the Akamas and fields all over the island, would make ethereal centrepieces.
