What’s a wedding without flowers? From the bridal bouquet to centrepiece arrangements, flowers have become an integral part of the big occasion.
While roses are popular for obvious reasons, there are so many stunning flowers with meanings just as romantic. If you’re planning your bouquet, consider one of these flowers.
Salvia
This adorable flower has different meanings depending on its colour. A blue salvia says ‘thinking of you’ while a red one means ‘forever mine’. We think the red varietal is pretty fitting for a wedding day.

Those keen to tie the knot may now do so during Level 3 lockdown. However, there are strict conditions to stick to.
During a media briefing, Home Affairs minister Aaron Motsoaledi exlained that people may marry at a Home Affairs office or with a marriage officer. No wedding ceremonies are permitted, and a maximum of two witnesses are allowed.
“We are not allowing wedding ceremonies, but people can go to Home Affairs Department to get married,” he said. “We made it very clear about the conditions [for marriages] two people who are getting married and two witnesses, no crowds.”
“Because the majority of marriage officers are ministers of religion, we have also said the same thing – if a minister of religion is going to marry couples in their office, the couple must come with only two witnesses. We don’t allow crowds there.”
Home Affairs will also open other services, such as the registration of births, the re-issuing of birth certificates, and the collection of IDs.

They reportedly had only 45 guests in attendance, and Kerr cooked and served the dinner.
“One of my favourite dinner dishes is my slow roast organic chicken with turmeric, lemon and garlic,” she explained in an interview.. “It holds a special place in my heart because I cooked it and served it at our wedding – I really wanted, as his wife, to be the one to cook the first meal he ate as my husband.”
The pair share two children; sons Hart (2) and Myles (8 months). Kerr also has a nine-year-old son named Flynn with ex-husband Orlando Bloom.
