White Filler Flowers That Aren't Baby's Breath

Baby’s breath has been trending in the wedding world for a while now, and we definitely get requests for it often! There are some really beautiful, modern ways to incorporate it into your floral palette to keep it feeling fresh and on-trend (we share some ideas in this post!).

But here’s the thing—sometimes, when couples ask for baby’s breath, what they actually want is that soft, cloud-like, airy texture. And let’s be honest, if baby’s breath is the only filler flower you know by name, it makes sense that it’s the one you’d ask for!

That’s why we’ve rounded up some of our favorite white filler flowers that can be used instead of baby’s breath. Some of these mimic that dreamy, airy aesthetic you’re going for, while others bring a fun, unique texture to the table. There are so many ways to use white filler flowers to achieve the vibe you want—whether that’s soft and romantic or modern and playful.

When to Book Your Wedding Florist

First of all, congratulations on your engagement! This is such an exciting time in your life, and as wedding florists, we know how special it is to begin dreaming about the day you say, "I do." Whether you’ve had Pinterest boards for years or are just starting to envision your big day, we’re here to help guide you through the process of planning your wedding florals.

One of the most common questions we get is: When should I book my wedding florist? With inquiries coming in earlier and earlier, it can feel like a race to lock in your vendors. The truth is, there’s no perfect timeline. We’ve worked with couples as close as three months before their wedding and as far as 18 months out. While we recommend reaching out early to secure your date (especially if your wedding is during peak season), the most important thing is to feel ready.
