Wedding Bouquet Ideas

Match the style of your bouquet to the style of your dress. A classic elegant gown demands a simple floral arrangement.

Flowers in season will be of the best quality and value.

Flowers with a particular meaning or sentiment for you make a good choice.

Think about the traditional meaning of particular flowers.

Consider the colours of the bridesmaid’s outfits and match the flowers accordingly.

Some flowers are more long-lasting then others. Take your florists advice on flowers that will not wilt before you get to the ceremony.

Think about the fragrance of flowers.

Not all whites are the same. If you choose a white bouquet make sure it matches your dress and it uses greenery to good effect.

Alternatives to bouquets include a parasol, bible or prayer book.

Young bridesmaids can carry small baskets of flowers of petals.

Dry or press a bloom from your bouquet for your keepsake album.
