The flower ‘Carnation’ wasderived from Greek words
that literally mean ‘Heavenly Flowers’.
There
are a plethora of reasons to love Carnations, as one of Bangalore’s prominent
event planners we at Avenues Weddings have listed a number of ways you can
enjoy these sensational beauties! These underrated yet gorgeous flowers are
sturdy and last long, very long which makes them perfect (in my honest opinion)
for wedding décor,baby showers, bouquets, wreaths, to splash some colour at
home or even stunning flower crowns.
Flowers have the influence to create an exceptionally romantic ambiance like no other. Although not everyone has the budget to fill up the entire wedding venue or party with fresh flowers, you can still create a lush, flower-filled look using Carnations.
Here’s
some ways I personally think these flowers can be used.
1. What I love about Carnations is the many colours they are available in which makes them versatile while using for decorations.

Carnations. What’s not to love? Subtle, simple, can be used as a perfect
backdrop for wedding décor, be it a photo booth or just an entry. Take your
vows in front of this minimalistic drape, use it as a phoolkachaadar for your
entry! Tell me what you like about it?
