4 Feb

It’s no secret, we adore eucalyptus. The look, the smell, the way it can make even the most basic wedding items look so pretty. Our hearts do a little fist bump every time we hear our couples say they will be using eucalyptus at their wedding, we can’t wait to hear how they will be incorporating this beautiful, versatile foliage into their big day.

Here we show you 7 ways you can use eucalyptus at your own wedding.

Your Bouquet.

We are huge fans of those blooming big bouquets! And there’s no better way to give your bouquet tons of volume than with lots & lots of eucalyptus. Adding greenery to your florals is such a classic look and will work all year round. And not to mention they will smell divine too!

In your hair.

We adore a flower crown! But you don’t have to limit yourself to flowers only, add in a touch of eucalyptus to add a boho feel to your look.You can use as little or as much as you like! From an addition to a flower crown or full on eucalyptus crown, this pretty foliage can be weaved into your hair as you wish.

As confetti.

We all know that most wedding venues will only allow bio-degradable or eco-friendly confetti nowadays. So why not use eucalyptus leaves? They are just the right size to give the desired effect to your confetti photos and they fill the air with that beautiful scent.

Your wedding reception.

There are so many ways to add eucalyptus details to your reception. Perfect as a runner for your tables or to pretty up the back of your chairs. You can have vases full to the brim with tons of eucalyptus as centre pieces to give that wow factor. You can even finish off table names with a touch of greenery to give a boho feel to your day.

Table plan.

You can adorn the whole table plan with eucalyptus for a country vibe or just add a touch for a more modern look. From mirrored to plain white boards, eucalyptus will give that high end look to any table plan.

Wedding Stationery.

From real eucalyptus scattered over your place cards or a touch added to your dinner plates, to illustrations on your wedding invites, eucalyptus gives a clean, classic look without too much effort.

Decorate your cake.

We always say make sure you display your wedding cake well! We die a little inside when we see a beautiful wedding cake shoved in a dark corner of the room. Use eucalyptus as a base to give the prettiest effect that takes just minutes. And of course you can use the green wonder stuff to decorate your cake too, just make sure its easily removed as we don’t think it would taste great! Well, eucalyptus can’t do everything…..but it comes very close.
