The name comes from the french phrase “pomme d’ambre” or apple of amber. This is basically a ball of perfume carried to protect against diseases or just get rid of bad scents.

In modern times, pomanders mainly consist of flowers or fake flowers and offer an eye catching element to wedding decor.

Pomander flower balls can be used as a decoration or as a flower girl alternative to carry instead of petals. These work well when your flower girls aren’t allowed to throw anything.
