We’ve prepared the boldest and coolest wedding arches and chuppahs covered with bougainvillea, let’s take a look at them but first
What Are Bougainvillea Advantages?
Known for its vibrant hue, bougainvillea is an ideal choice for any couple who wants to add a pop of pink-red color to their party. Use it to brighten up a muted arrangement of classic blooms like roses or include a sprig of it on your neutral table setting for a bit of visual interest.
Bougainvillea thrives in hot climates, making it a great choice for use at your summer wedding or tropical destination event. If you’re lucky, your warm-weather venue might have them on-site—consider posing in front of the blooms while snapping your portraits or use them as a colorful backdrop for your ceremony. To keep all the focus on the bright flowers, the pros skipped a statement arch.
The cost of the branches can differ based on where your wedding is located—if sourced locally in a tropical destination, it will be significantly cheaper than if it has to travel.
Its wild unruliness and endless abundance make it plentiful which is perfect for eco-conscious (or budget conscious) couples.

What To Pair Bougainvillea With?
The romantic style of bougainvillea lends itself to other lush blooms like roses, peonies, and ranunculi. Pair bougainvillea with other statement-making flowers rather than dainty blooms. King protea, blousy roses, and orchids all work perfectly with this chic plant. Add fronds and large leaves for a tropical wedding arch. Because the blossoms tend to be intense in hue and texture, it’s good to use separately without any other blooms, perhaps only with greenery and foliage.
