When making wholesale flower selection for wedding and other occasion flower arrangements, consider what will add texture and volume - filler flowers.
Long gone are days when it was all about the traditional Baby's Breath. Nowadays, filler flowers come in different color choices, fragrances, sizes and texture, to help you customize your floral centerpieces and bouquets. Also, there’s something for everyone’s budget, allowing you to spend more on luxurious flowers like orchids or peonies.
Whenever possible, it’s wise to opt for seasonal with your flower choices for festive and celebratory floral arrangements because you’re being more environmentally friendly and you can save more money.
So, when it comes to good filler flowers for arrangements and bouquets, here are some lovely and popular options:

Bouvardia flowers are quite extraordinary - clusters of star-like flowers with soft white, red, yellow or pink blooms and a delicate scent. In the language of flowers, they represent enthusiasm, and can still look quite fresh and vibrant for up to two weeks.
Stock flowers, with their ruffled petals, will provide a lovely fragrance in an arrangement with other flowers that don’t have much scent. They come in a wide range of hues, including pink, white, yellow, red, purple, and burgundy.
