A European Beginning: Sophistication in Bloom
Long before they were the darling of Pinterest mood boards and bridal flat lays, champagne roses held pride of place in the parlours and gardens of European aristocracy.
In the 19th and early 20th centuries, pale-toned roses were used to convey refinement — often reserved for formal gatherings, elegant gifting, and high-society weddings. Their gentle, sun-kissed colouring suggested grace, gratitude, and a love not driven by passion, but by admiration and depth.
In France and England, florists often paired them with ivory lace or antique silver, letting their tone speak of quiet luxury. While red roses were bold declarations, champagne roses were personal, private and poetic.
