Succulents are unique, come in a variety of colors, and make a great keepsake after your big day is behind you. Check out this list to see how you can use succulents in your special day.

Succulents can be seen as independent plants; however, they are easy to mix and match with other colorful flowers, such as roses, ranunculus, daisies, mums, or stocks. While the most common succulent color is green, you can find them in almost any color of the rainbow, including red, orange, yellow, and purple. Have fun and create your own masterpiece!

Succulents are perfect for wedding centerpieces, especially for outdoor weddings. Succulents love natural lights and grow even in the hardest weather. Compared to other traditional wedding table decors, succulents are strong so that the wind couldn’t blow them away. Even though they look simple and minimalist, they significantly contribute to a rustic, boho and intriguing style to your wedding.
