22 Lovely Sunflower Wedding Centerpieces

Sunflowers are a popular choice of wedding flowers, and it’s easy to see why. True to their name, their petals resemble the rays around the sun, and their cheery golden yellow color is a perfect reflection of the emotions on a joyful day, like a wedding! 

In addition to this, sunflowers also commonly bloom during one of the most popular wedding seasons – late summer to early fall. This makes them an often affordable option for use in weddings during that time. 

Maybe sunflowers are your favorite flower, or perhaps their petals are your favorite shade of yellow. Whatever your reason for looking them up, we hope our list of sunflower wedding centerpieces ideas will inspire your wedding planning. After all, it’s the decor that sets the tone for the party!
