The anemone flower has several different meanings depending on the culture and context in which the flower is being used. In the Victorian language of flowers, the anemone represented a forsaken love of any kind, while European peasants carried them to ward off pests and disease as well as bad luck. However, in Eastern cultures, the meanings are very different. In Chinese and Egyptian cultures, it was considered a symbol of illness due to its coloring. It is also a symbol of bad luck to many Eastern cultures, and because of its origins, the Japanese Anemone tends to mean ill tidings. (uh oh) . Either way, it's one of my favorite flowers (visually) and I will ALWAYS love seeing them in a beautiful bouquet or centerpiece on a wedding day. 🤷🏼♀️ photo by @amandabrookephoto . . . . . #weddingbouquet #bridalbouquet #weddingflowers #weddingdecor #bride #instabride #groom #instagroom #instacouple #happycouple #shesaidyes #heputaringonit #weddingstyle #poconowedding #poconoweddingplanner #lehighvalleywedding #lehighvalleyweddingplanner #bethlehemwedding #phillywedding #phillyweddingplanner #phillybride #buckscountywedding #buckscountyweddingplanner #buckscountybride (at Canteen 900)
