There are a lot of types and varieties of orchids that can be used at weddings, some of which are:

Cymbidium
Cymbidium is the most popular type of orchids that are used at weddings. They are available in a variety of colors including pink, yellow, white and pale green.

Moreover, using a large flower vase, the Cymbidium can also be floated making a beautiful decoration item.

Vanda and Phalaenopsis
These flowers are also known as moth orchids. Phalaenopsis are very good looking and sumptuous flowers and can be used in combination with other flowers like rose and lilies. A bouquet made of these flowers looks very charming. Since these flowers are expensive so they are not used as cut flowers.
The Vanda has six or eight blooms on a stem and its petals give a marbled look. They look even more beautiful in stunning purple color. Like Phalaenopsis, these are also expensive but if you will use them in wedding bouquet, your guests will definitely ask that what those beautiful flowers are which you have in your wedding bouquet.
