Flowers for a couple at a civil wedding: ceremony or home delivery?

Flowers for a couple at a civil wedding: ceremony or home delivery?

If you are a guest giving the couple flowers, start by finding out who can receive the bouquet. The bridal bouquet and venue flowers usually have their own arrangements. An extra bouquet sent without agreement to a registry office or reception can arrive when nobody has time or a container for it. If the couple wants flowers during the celebration, agree on the receiver and place first. Otherwise, sending them home on a date when the couple has returned may be easier.

At the ceremony or at home?

For a gift during the wedding, ask the couple or event coordinator whether a separate bouquet is welcome, the exact address, and who will take charge of it. If you are carrying it yourself, decide where it can stay during the celebration. A courier delivery cannot be assumed to arrive at a particular minute; check the date and available options before ordering.

For a gift afterward, first confirm that the couple will be at the address and would like flowers then. Do not assume they return from a trip the following day. Give the receiver’s name and phone number, the full address, and a date offered in the order calendar. Interflora’s Spanish guide to sending wedding flowers also separates delivery during the ceremony from a later gift to the home. Its delivery times and services belong to Interflora, not Persa.

With a vase or to arrange?

The distinction matters if the gift arrives after a busy week. The current listing for Coral describes coral roses, white lisianthus and other flowers and greenery, presented in a glass vase. Original was available for €70, before delivery, on 1 November 2026. Flowers may change with the season. The included vase means the couple need not find one on arrival, though someone still needs to receive the parcel.

White Marble is a white and green alternative wrapped in kraft paper with ribbon. Its listing names roses, daisies, baby's breath and greenery, plus a gift message, nutrients and flower instructions; it does not list a vase. Original was available for €69, before delivery, in the same check. Choose it if you know the couple has a container and prefers that look. White flowers are an option, not a rule for civil weddings.

A card for both

Address the couple together: “Dear Ana and Luis, we loved celebrating with you. Wishing you many happy moments in this new chapter. Marta and Pablo.” Sign with the senders’ names. Persa sends the buyer a photo of the actual bouquet before dispatch. It shows the prepared gift; it is neither a request for approval nor proof of delivery.

This guide is about a guest’s gift. If you are planning the venue flowers, see our civil wedding flower arrangements guide. For the gift, settle the handover first, then choose the bouquet and available date.
