Are you planning your winter wedding? Are you wanting to incorporate some of the latest trends into your wedding to make it pop? One way to incorporate trends into your wedding is with your flowers. How brides are wanting their flowers in their wedding is constantly changing, especially with the seasons. So, Wedding and Party Network has the latest trends in winter wedding flowers that will help make your wedding truly be amazing.

Lush & Organic – Brides are wanting to incorporate more of a natural feel into their wedding. Think tree stumps, birch for table numbers, urns and floral cascading out of tree limbs. Think earth and nature. For your winter wedding, go with lighter colored branches and flowers too for the winter white.

Mix Of Elements -Not everything has to match perfectly. Find elements that you think compliment each other, yet not looking the same. Pick one type of flower that you love and mix and match it with feathers and branches for something unique. Even mix and match the centerpieces at your reception. Instead of having the same ones, add different styles to each table that compliment each other yet are different.

Unique Landscapes -Instead of the same traditional flowers, think outside-the-box. Use different vases in sizes and shapes to create a unique landscape on your tables. Also, take with your florist to see what visions they see for your wedding. They keep up-to-date on all the latest trends and are the perfect people to ask when searching for unique reception flower ideas.

Simple & Fresh -Of course, your wedding flowers don't have to be extravagant. First off, where are you having your wedding? Of course, we're talking about geographically speaking. If you have a certain kind of flower that grows in your area, have you thought about showcasing it in your wedding? Keep it simple, fresh and local.

Personality – Let your blooms shine through with personality. If you take a look at flowers, you notice that each one shines through with a personality of it's own. Red roses bring across a sense of sophistication while peonies are a timeless classic. Pick flowers that are suited more towards your personality and let that shine through your wedding flowers.

Personable -Another way to make your wedding flowers stand out is adding a personal touch to them. For example, include your grandmother's brooch or a small picture frame in your wedding bouquet adds a great touch. Also, what do both of you enjoy to do? Maybe you both love reading, well why not use books as apart of your centerpieces.

Theme Weddings – Themes are a great way to go with your wedding. It doesn't have to be like a themed party or anything like that, just make the theme fit your personality. If you love vintage, go with a vintage themed wedding. However, if you enjoy a variety of colors, go with a rainbow themed wedding.

Wedding Colors – Mixing and matching colors are great and still on trend. However, for your winter wedding, focus on neutrals. Beige, brown, nude and pale colors are simply beautiful during the winter months.

These are great ideas to gather inspiration for your wedding, however, don't forget to make it fit YOU. That's the main priority and it's your wedding day that you'll remember forever.

Every Friday, Wedding and Party Network will be choosing a theme or color and give you inspirational photos. We want to help give you inspiration for your next event, wedding or party. So, take a look and we hope to give you a bit of inspiration when planning your wedding or party. Our inspirational board will give everyone inspiration on wedding gowns! 2011 wedding gowns have taken a turn for the botanical gardens. Capturing the delicateness of the flower petals and elegance of chiffon in every detail, fall 2011 wedding gowns are truly blooming!

Between Vera Wang, Prina Tornai, Rivini, Watters & Watters and more, the fall 2011 wedding gown catwalks were covered in blooms, blossoms and buds, over-sized cabbage roses, silk petals and lace. Each dress taking a new spin on the essence of flowers. Not only is the bride carrying flowers, but now she is wearing them in an elegant and romantic new way. The look for fall 2011 is  form-fitting bodices, defined waists and voluptuous skirts. Tulle, chiffon, light weight taffeta and organza flow seamlessly down the bodice of each gown. The look is airy, sheer and delicate with special attention to details.

Another big influence on the cat walk is chic head wear. Brides are clad in sparkling tiaras, headbands with super-sized chiffon flowers, half veils and eccentric hats. A vintage shape with luxe textures such as lace, feathers, and beads hug the brides curves as they seem to float down the aisle. Now, it's your turn to embrace the beauty and elegance of this Fall fashion trend with your very own botanical inspired wedding gown.

So, you're engaged and planning for a fall wedding. That's wonderful! However, are you overwhelmed? Are you able to figure out what's in style for this fall with the wealth of information you have received and read. Wedding and Party Network has some wonderful fall wedding tips that you can easily incorporate into your wedding.

Going Sheer -What's hot this season for weddings, and even fashion? Going sheer. You can incorporate this trend into all parts of your wedding and it will set an elegant tone. Your wedding invitations can include sheer layers within the design. Also, merge this trend into your wedding decorations like, lucite chairs, sheer fabrics, linens, crystal decor, clear beaded accents and translucent tents.

Showing Off The Shoes - Colorful and fun shoes are simply amazing. This means having higher hems. Raising the hems, means showing off the shoes easier. So, let your wedding shoes show off the colors of your wedding. Purple, blue, pink, black, red or even orange all add a wonderful accent. If you want to add something else, choose shoes with flowers, ruffles or even feathers.

Veils -Don't forget about the beautiful accent to your wedding dress. The veil needs to be perfect and match the style of your dress. However, shorter veils and even headpieces are a huge trend for this year. Birdcage veils, blusher, flyaway, or shoulder length.

Texture -Adding texture to your wedding is a great trend this season. Add texture to your wedding cake, dress, linens, centerpieces, wedding invitations and your flowers. A great way to add texture is with your wedding cake. It is so elegant and simply amazing. Plus, it's unique and your guests will definitely notice it without it being over the top.
