Q: I have very bad allergies. They’re not just seasonal, but year round. I can tolerate having non floral centerpieces because I feel that there are a plethora of options with that department. However, I dream of a floral bouquet. People have suggested silk flowers, and although there are some with good quality, deep down it isn’t what I want. The thought of being a flowerless bride just doesn’t set right with me. Are there any last resorting options?
A: Unfortunately I don’t know the severity of your allergies, so use this advice as an informational tool to start yourself off with. I strongly suggest that you meet with an allergy specialist to look into the matter further.
With that being said, there are two types of flowers that seem to do well with allergy sufferers. Hypoallergenic flowers are ones which contain low pollen counts or are pollen free. Roses and orchids fall into that category. This gives people many options because there are a large variety of roses and orchids. Here are some popular picks:
