Planning a Lavender Wedding: Dried Blooms, Boutonnières & Favors
Few flowers belong at a wedding quite like lavender. It has carried meaning for centuries — devotion, serenity, and lasting love — and it brings something to the day that other blooms can’t: a soft purple palette, a calming fragrance that lingers in your photos and memories, and a versatility that moves easily from a rustic barn celebration to an elegant garden affair. At FindLavender, our lavender is family-grown in Sequim, Washington — the Lavender Capital of North America — and we love helping couples weave it through every part of their day.
Here are the four ways couples reach for lavender most, and how we can tailor each to your celebration.
Dried Lavender Flowers
Dried lavender is the workhorse of a lavender wedding — and the most romantic. Toss it as fragrant, eco-friendly confetti as you walk back up the aisle. Line the aisle, fill mason jars and centerpieces, tuck it into bouquets, or scatter loose buds across the tables. Because it’s dried, there’s no wilting and no last-minute rush: it’s ready weeks ahead, travels beautifully, and becomes a keepsake long after the day is over.
Lavender for the Grooms
A few sprigs of lavender make a simple, striking boutonnière for the groom and groomsmen — understated, fragrant, and a clean break from the usual rose. For a gift they’ll keep, a small live lavender plant is a thoughtful groomsmen present or a living favor that carries the day’s memory into their gardens. Tell us how many you need and we’ll match the sizes.

Sachets, Soaps & Gift Bags — Favors Your Guests Will Keep
Lavender sachets are one of the most loved wedding favors because they’re useful, beautiful, and unforgettable. Set one at each place setting, tuck them into welcome bags, or pile them in a basket by the door. Every time a guest opens a drawer months later and catches the scent, they’ll think of your day.
Handmade lavender soap bars make an equally memorable favor — natural, gentle, and scented with real lavender. Pair a soap with a sachet for a little spa set your guests will actually use.

Tie it all together with lavender organza gift bags — drawstring pouches that turn a soap and sachet into a finished, ready-to-give favor in your wedding colors.
Custom Orders, Shipped on Your Timeline
Every wedding is different, so we build orders around yours. Need 200 sachets in a specific color, bulk dried buds for a confetti toss, or a set of matching plants for the wedding party? We do custom and special orders all the time. And because weddings mean quantity, we offer volume discounts — the more you order, the more you save. Just get in touch with your date and quantities — the earlier the better for large orders — and we’ll put together a quote.
And when timing matters, it matters to us too. We ship fast, and for events we can schedule your order to arrive exactly when you need it — close enough to the day to be fresh, early enough to give you peace of mind.
