OK to Offer Mary Statue Flowers at Wedding?

Question:

Flowers to the Blessed Virgin for my wedding ceremony?

Answer:

Honoring the Blessed Mother and asking for her intercession is a respected nuptial tradition in the Church. It typically involves the newly married couple praying together before an image of the Blessed Mother. In doing so, they can present the image with flowers as well, typically placing them at an altar named in her honor, which therefore would include a statue or image of Mary.
