Pampas grass is the focus of this week’s Wedding Wednesday blog post. Using this ethereal, feathery foliage as part of wedding flower creations is becoming a very popular trend, not only for altar designs and aisle decor, but also chandeliers and tablecentre arrangements.
I just couldn’t resist including this gorgeous photo of a little flower girl with her pampas grass ‘angel wings’!

Goodness this is beautiful. I never thought of using Pampas grass in this way!
Thank you Devon! So pleased you enjoyed today’s blog post… 🙂
Great article and so timely for me as I want to use pampas for my wedding in May! Love these images. Anyone know where I can find it? It seems dried grass are sold in the US but I can’t find a UK supplier.
Hi Georgina, thank you for your lovely comment. I’ve seen pampas grass at New Covent Garden Flower Market before, but it was around October/November. You could try contacting Porters Foliage and GB Foliage there though. Here’s a link to their contact details : http://www.newcoventgardenmarket.com/traders?keys=foliage. Best wishes, Rona.
Stunning arrangements and photographs so gorgeous to see. Thanks Rona your article has just taken me back to sunny days as a child growing up in New Zealand with lots of native ToeToe growing everywhere.
Thank you so much for your comments Johanna! And so lovely to hear about your fond memories… 🙂
Hi
Looks absolutely great, was wondering if it looks good when dried out.
Thanks
Thank you Lana! I’ve not had any personal experience, but having just Googled it, it looks like it’s quiet happy to be dried. 🙂
I know what I’m adding to my grass gardens here this year!
These where trendy when I was a kid… 1970’s.
What is old is new again. ????????
You’re absolutely right, Amber! What goes around, comes around… 🙂
Wow! Really takes my breath!
