Australian Native Flowers for Your Wedding Bouquet: Natural Beauty That Lasts

 Hello! I'm Tanya, a Sydney-based floral designer specialising in dried and preserved flower arrangements. One of the most meaningful choices a bride can make is to include Australian native flowers in her bouquet. They’re not only striking and symbolic, but they also last for years when dried or preserved — perfect for eco-conscious and modern brides.

If you're looking for a bouquet with true Aussie charm, here are my favourite suggestions and ready-to-order designs.
