Planning a wedding in winter? Don't worry, there are plenty of flowers to choose from to make your big day bloom. From dramatic whites to rich reds, winter brides have a range of floral varieties and colours to choose from. If you're looking for a traditional white wedding, add a twist with antique whites, creams, ivories and pale blush hues. Or, for a festive feel, opt for holiday reds like amaryllis and holly. If you're after something a little different, anemones, with their distinctive black centre, bring a modern vibe to any arrangement. For a January wedding, freesia is a wonderful addition to a winter bouquet, with its perfumed fragrance and subtle, snow-white petals.

Christmas wedding flowers: red amaryllis, holly, red berries, and hypericum berries
Winter brides have a wide variety of flowers to choose from, ranging from soft antique whites to rich reds. For a Christmas wedding, red amaryllis, holly, red berries, and hypericum berries make for a stunning combination.
Red amaryllis blossoms are a perfect choice for a Christmas wedding. The velvety, vibrant blooms represent resilience, love, and beauty—a unique flower that blooms in the winter. They can be bought as a plant or cut flower and paired with other flowers or used in a bouquet on their own.
Holly is a traditional Christmas flower with a rich history and symbolism. Its evergreen leaves and vibrant crimson berries represent endurance and hope. The sharp, spiky leaves are also believed to fend off evil spirits and bring good luck, making them a natural shield and a symbol of protection. Holly is a versatile addition to any Christmas wedding, whether used as a decoration or in a bouquet.
Red berries, such as hypericum berries, add a brilliant texture to any wedding bouquet or centerpiece. Hypericum berries are available all year and are extremely versatile, holding up beautifully in both bouts and large centerpieces. They come in red, green, and white, and can be substituted with snowberry or another textured element if needed.
For a Christmas wedding, combining these four elements—red amaryllis, holly, red berries, and hypericum berries—will create a festive and elegant atmosphere. Whether used in bridal bouquets or as table centerpieces, these flowers and berries will add a touch of holiday cheer and symbolism to any celebration.

January flowers: anemone coronaria, freesia, and waxflower
Winter brides may worry about the availability of floral varieties and colours, but there is no need to fret! There are many winter wedding flowers to choose from, and January is no exception. Anemone coronaria, freesia, and waxflower are all in season during this month and can add a vibrant pop of colour to your big day.
Anemone, with its distinctive black centre, brings a modern vibe to any arrangement. These blooms come in all sorts of fun colours, but for a winter wedding, consider the fuschia variety, known for adding a vibrant pop to the muted winter landscape. Anemones can be used in everything from simple bud-vase centrepieces to garden-style bouquets.
Freesia is another wonderful addition to a winter bouquet. Known for its perfumey fragrance, freesia is made up of subtle, snow-white petals with a kiss of yellow at their base (though they come in other colours, too). Freesia can be a January bloom, especially if grown indoors in a pot.
Waxflowers are a hearty bloom that can stand up to cold winter temperatures. They are also known for being rather inexpensive, so couples hunting for affordable wedding flowers should consider this option.
In addition to these three floral varieties, there are several other flowers in season during the winter months, including amaryllis, camellias, casablanca lilies, french tulips, gardenias, jasmine, orchids, roses, and poinsettias.
