The d\u00e9cor at most Indian weddings is bright and colourful and when it comes to Indian flowers you cannot miss the marigold. It is the most common yet the most beautiful flower you will see at Indian weddings. The flower is so cheerful in itself that it can glam up even the simplest venue. It\u2019s one of our favourite\u2019s too!<\/p>\n<p>Perfect for a mehendi function, Marigold is easily available in shades of vibrant orange and a bright yellow.\u00a0 Apart from Marigold, another lovely flower which you can consider using at Indian weddings is the Lotus.<\/p>\n<p style=\\\"text-align: center;\\\"><b><a href=\\\"http:\/\/marrymeweddings.in\/wpblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/flower-decoration-at-Indian-mehendi.jpg\\\"><img class=\\\"alignnone size-full wp-image-9522\\\" alt=\\\"flower decoration at Indian mehendi\\\" src=\\\"http:\/\/marrymeweddings.in\/wpblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/flower-decoration-at-Indian-mehendi.jpg\\\" width=\\\"499\\\" height=\\\"333\\\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<\/b><\/p>\n<p>If you have <a title=\\\"Wedding Destination\\\" href=\\\"http:\/\/www.marrymeweddings.in\/destination-weddings.html\\\">an outdoor wedding venue<\/a> with a water body nearby, you must consider using Lotus as a part of your wedding d\u00e9cor. Lotuses are easily available in hues of pink ranging from a deep pink to a very subtle light shade of almost a baby pink.\u00a0 They are also available in violet and look very beautiful.<\/p>\n<p>If you don\u2019t like too much colour and want to keep your wedding d\u00e9cor simple and elegant, you can go with Lilies.
