The culturally vibrant, tropical, and mesmerising island of Bali has seduced many for the purpose of matrimony. Whether you’ve visited numerous times or never at all, choosing your flowers for your Bali wedding can be puzzling if you don’t know where to look and what types of flowers you can expect to find in Bali.

You can breathe easy though as the choices are abundant and there are some amazing flowers and florists to be found. Roses of all colours and shapes, orchids, chrysanths, hydrangea and lilies, as well as the more tropical anthuriums and heliconia’s make for stunning bouquets and centrepieces. These flowers are all grown by Bali Rose who is one of Bali’s flower producers dedicated to providing a variety of high quality cut flowers. As well as local growers producing flowers on the island, there is a range of beautiful imported ones also.

The imported varieties are going attract a higher price tag, so if you are looking to save a little be prepared to be flexible and work with the beautiful options locally available to keep your floral budget down.

Seasonality definitely still plays a part in Bali floral availability

If your vision is for a colourful, tropical vibe or for a more classic theme with a soft colour palette, Bali has a selection of flowers that will satisfy your wishes. A good place to start is by choosing a florist that can meet your needs – matching your desires with your budget.

Here are some ideas to help you choose your floral styling:

We have our own florists who actually make your arrangements up fresh on the day on site. You don’t have to worry about the bruising of petals or the flattening of foliage on a scooter dash to the venue with our expert team. Have you ever seen a scooter with 20 buckets of flowers on the back in the sun on the way to a wedding? That won’t be our supplier!

As Bali is renowned for it’s lush flora, if your chosen Bali wedding venue is already colourful or green enough, then you can choose something simple to complement or highlight this aspect. So, whether your flowers are extravagant or understated, striking or subdued, Bali will have what you’re looking for.
