Wedding Bouquets
Wedding bouquets come in different varieties and
offer brides many choices for the big day. Wedding bouquets can
be created from a variety of flowers, a single type of flower embellished
with greenery or tule, elaborate or simple. There is no right way
to arrange a wedding bouquet.
The bride must be happy with what she has chosen and then, her
personality will come through in the flowers. This is all that is
needed to have the right wedding bouquet.
It's nice to be able to connect wedding bouquets with the dresses
that are being worn. Some brides like to include flowers of the
same color as the bridesmaid's dresses. If the bride doesn't want
any actual flowers of the same color in the wedding bouquet, an
easy way to get around this is to tie a piece of fabric from the
dresses around the flowers.
The most common way to choose wedding bouquet colors are to stay
with the colors of the ceremony and reception. This again, can include
all of the colors of the theme by adding a variety of differently
colored flowers or the bride may just want to focus on one color.
When going with one main color, the flowers can be all of the same
variety and color or can be different varieties of the same color.
Contrasting colors can draw more attention to the flowers so if
the wedding bouquet is meant to be a focal point, it would be important
to have different colors.
Another decision to be made when it comes to deciding on how to
choose bridal wedding bouquets is to choose the shape. Round shapes
are the most popular but there are ways to personalize the roundness
of a bouquet or to create a different shape entirely.
Lace and greenery can trail from the wedding bouquet to lend it
a more downward shape and crystals and beads can be added for a
more reflective spark. Flowers that have a spikiness to them can
be shaped to form a triangle Diamond shapes can be created by ivy
and trailing flowers. Different shapes will move the eye around
the bouquet and placing accents in specific points will help achieve
the desired effect.
Different wedding bouquets are often used as the bridal bouquet.
If the bride has decided on silk flowers for her bridal bouquet,
she may want to have a fresh wedding bouquet to toss at the reception
so she can keep the one that went down the aisle with her as a memory
of her big day.
If the bride wants to have fresh flowers but still wants to keep
something as a memory, it's possible to have part of the wedding
bouquet detach and she can toss one of the parts and keep the other.
For a wedding in the summer months, it's a good idea to have two
wedding bouquets. one for the photographs and one for walking down
the aisle. This way your flowers will be fresh for both occasions.
Choosing wedding bouquets can be a lot of fun as one can let their
imagination and creativity run rampant. It's important not to become
too frustrated by this decision although it may seem overwhelming
at first.
