Autumn anniversary flower options
Whether it’s your first or twenty-first year together, anniversaries are always an important occasion. It is customary for couples to exchange various gifts on this day. Fresh flowers are easily the most popular romantic gift along with chocolates, champagne and even a private dinner. If you want to plan the perfect autumn anniversary celebration, here are some tips to help you choose the perfect bouquet.
The classic rose
When looking for the perfect flowers for an autumn anniversary, you’ll be happy to know that you have many options! The first option is not necessarily seasonal but is the most romantic of all. The red rose will surely send a message of love. The number of roses you send will further influence the message you send.
Seasonal theme
Another option, if you want truly seasonal autumn anniversary flowers, is a bouquet of bright orange, yellow and pink flowers. Look for daisy-like flowers, such as gerberas and germini. Chrysanthemums are also a great addition as are carnations. Both flowers add stunning texture to any bouquet and also come in striking colours.
Full of joy
If you want something particularly bright, you could opt for a mixed autumn anniversary bouquet of Gerberas or a lot of sunflowers. The open arrangement of the petals always makes these bouquets of considerably impressive bouquets. Even the most important wedding anniversaries are associated with a colour. There are no colours for every year but in these cases you can be creative. Check out the list below to help you choose the most appropriate bouquet to send to your spouse.

If you can’t find autumn anniversary flowers in the colour you need, you can always get creative. For example, you may not be able to find silver flowers, but you can spray paint them and add them to your bouquet. This is especially nice for your 10th wedding anniversary where the colours are silver and blue. Ask your florist to prepare a selection of blue and silver flowers with a few details and accessories here and there. Silver-painted sticks and beads are great options for arrangements that need more sparkle.
