Constance is the fairytale princess of the David Austin Wedding Rose family. Gorgeously girly and endlessly romantic, Constance is often the number one choice for couples looking for the perfect pink wedding rose and it’s easy to see why. With youthful pale cream and blush pink petals that disperse like watercolours across parchment, and a distinctive fresh, fruity fragrance, Constance is a wonderful balance of old-fashioned romance and a contemporary sensibility. If you’ve got your heart set on Constance, let us ignite your imagination with our ideas on incorporating this romantic pink rose into your own special day.
The Perfect Pink Wedding Roses
Constance has a Cinderella ball gown shape with layers of delicate petals that ombré from a heart of cream to rosy marshmallow pink. Each perfect pink wedding rose reveals herself quite differently, some open to the palest cream and blush pink, others to a deeper raspberry hue. This unpredictability makes her all the more special and unique. Constance has an elegant fruity perfume with hints of apple and pear, creating a delightful and refreshing aroma that subtly enhances the ambience of your wedding day. This sophisticated blend of scents evokes a sense of natural beauty and charm, adding a layer of sensory experience that your guests will remember long after the celebrations are over.
What Roses work well with Constance?
Constance is surprisingly versatile and can be styled with many other roses and seasonal wedding flowers to enhance her feminine appeal. Pair with our creamy white roses, Leonora, Purity or Patience, for a flirty raspberry ripple effect and add delicate flushes of astrantia, sweetpeas, cosmos and butterfly ranunculus for touches of textural contrast.
If you’re going all-out pink, you can create a dreamy pink bridal bouquet by pairing Constance with Keira, Capability and Kate. This dramatic monochrome look will be striking at any time of the year. For a more eclectic and natural vibe, we love to see Constance paired with peachy tones, like Eugenie and Juliet, and touches of lavender blue from campanula bells, clematis and delphinium.
What Style of Wedding Does Constance Shine in?
This perfect pink wedding rose lends herself beautifully to a fairytale wedding style. In the traditional sense of fairytale romance, we’re imagining Constance within huge rose trees or adorning elegant candelabras in a grand castle ballroom, styled with pearlised details and cut glassware. Think Bridgerton and you’re on the right track!
For a more relaxed and whimsical fairytale look vibe, A Midsummer Night’s Dream provides the perfect inspiration. Imagine an outdoor wedding under the stars on the longest day of the year, with Constance trailing down the centre of banquet tables dressed with an abundance of foliage. Our favourite pink rose would also work beautifully within an overhead canopy, alongside swathes of sheer fabric and twinkling white fairy lights. There are so many options and quite honestly, Constance is sure to shine in any setting.
