Bridal bouquet


bridal bouquet

Completing the look for your wedding day can only be done once you have chosen your bridal bouquet design. This important accessory completes the look that you have been working on for months.
If you are tiring of the round bouquet that seems to be everywhere today, don’t worry, there are many different shapes and styles out there to choose from. Besides an all rose bouquet there are flowers that are equally as beautiful and colorful to add to your bouquet. A trip to any flower shop and you can see, feel, and smell the endless possibilities.
Wanting to escape the overdone round shape – consider the following shapes to use to make your bouquet unique truly a one of a kind, designed especially for you – floral accessory.
If your gown is a very full skirted ball gown, consider a – CASCADE – This is where there not only is a main body if the bouquet, but additional flowers literally cascade down. The elongated part of the bouquet can be flowers or ferns. This style adds an elegance that a round bouquet just can’t carry. The cascade draws the eye to the additional detail of the skirt. Very stunning and impressive.
Going for a shorter cascade consider the – TEAR DROP – style. This is an elongated round bouquet. Just a little variation on the round theme, but again a little different and more unique.
For the bride desiring something more natural and not so fussy, consider a GARDEN BOUQUET. This bouquet looks like you’ve strolled through a garden and selected the very best blooms available. This less formally arranged bouquet has a variety of blooms and is tied together with a ribbon. This bouquet would be the perfect compliment for the bride who has chosen a more casual theme for her wedding. At the beach or park, the look is more natural – perhaps in keeping with a greener themed wedding.
For that little something different, think Miss America and go with an ARM BOUQUET or another name is the PRESENTATION BOUQUET. This is a stunning selection of flowers that are arranged, keeping their long stems. The finishing touch is a beautiful ribbon, the streamers of this ribbon could cascade down the front and add a beautiful finishing touch.
If you’re looking for that touch of whimsy why not try a FLORAL BOULLE. This is where only the flower heads are used. The flowers are snipped off their stems and are pinned to a Styrofoam ball. Ribbons are attached so that the boulle can be worn hanging off the wrist. Whether you use one kind of flower or a variety the look is very fresh and lovely.
Adding other simple touches to your bouquet can bring out your signature uniqueness. Try adding loops of ribbon. Mixing them into your bouquet can add a new touch, they can also bring in a color that is not grown in nature.
