“Fresh, Dried, or Silk? How to Choose the Right Flowers for Your Next Big Moment”

Fresh, Dried, or Silk? How to Choose the Perfect Flowers for Your Wedding or Special Occasion

When it comes to floral design, every bloom tells a story.

Whether it’s the classic elegance of fresh roses, the everlasting charm of dried eucalyptus, or the timeless perfection of silk peonies, flowers hold the power to elevate any moment—from wedding aisles and centerpieces to surprise “just because” bouquets that leave someone speechless.

At JoJo Maguire Design, we believe flowers should do more than just decorate a space—they should evoke emotion, capture meaning, and create memories that linger long after the petals have fallen. That’s why JoJo offers full floral services for weddings, events, holidays, and special occasions. Whether you're planning a once-in-a-lifetime celebration or sending a thoughtful arrangement to someone you love, JoJo is here to bring your vision to life with artistry and heart.

🌸 The Language of Flowers

Did you know every flower carries a meaning?

  • Peonies symbolize romance and prosperity—perfect for weddings.

  • Roses speak of passion, friendship, and new beginnings.

  • Hydrangeas reflect gratitude and heartfelt emotion.

  • Lavender offers serenity and calm—a beautiful gesture of peace.

  • Baby’s breath represents everlasting love and purity.

This symbolism is why JoJo works closely with each client to choose flowers that align with the sentiment and purpose of your occasion. You deserve florals that feel as special and intentional as your event.

💐 Fresh vs. Dried vs. Silk: What’s Right for You?

Fresh Flowers
Breathtaking and fragrant, fresh florals are the go-to for weddings and events that call for lush, romantic impact. They’re vibrant, fragrant, and offer a sensory experience like no other. Ideal for:

  • Bridal bouquets & boutonnieres

  • Ceremony arches & centerpieces

  • Holiday gifts or “just because” moments

Dried Flowers
Earthy, textured, and effortlessly chic, dried arrangements bring a boho-modern aesthetic and last much longer than fresh flowers. They’re perfect for keepsakes and rustic elegance. Best for:

  • Boho-themed weddings or elopements

  • Long-lasting home décor

  • Unique gifting options with an organic feel

Silk Flowers
Silk blooms are perfect for those looking for zero-maintenance beauty with lasting charm. Today’s high-quality silk flowers are incredibly lifelike and ideal for:

  • Allergy-friendly options

  • Reusable arrangements

  • Statement pieces you can treasure forever
