Choosing The Perfect Bouquet for Your Bridal Attire
Just like choosing the perfect bridal dress, you need to carefully choose the bouquet for your special day too. A bride’s bouquet needs to go with her attire and also, with the fervent mood of the season.
When a maze of floral designs and laced sequin arrangements are available today, many ignore this art and choose common bouquet patterns.
So what you should do?
Choose a bridal bouquet on account of the following factors:
Fabric of the attire: Silk, satin, georgette, mixed blends
Colour of the attire: White, beige, cream, sandy brown, pink, mauve
Design: Full arm, V-neck, off-shoulder, Halter
Style: Designer, contemporary, vintage, Victorian
Here are 6 exciting wedding bouquet designs that suit bridal wear:
(1) Pageant bouquets
In this design, the stems are cut long and tied loosely so that the flowers rest pleasingly onto the bride’s arms. The flowers are wrapped with a bracelet or pearl chain to elevate the overall look. It goes well with vintage and sleeveless gowns.
(2) Posies
Posies are perfect for brides of short stature. These are again vintage designs which gracefully suit long, full gowns. The posies blend in with their round and formal arrangement, accentuating the curves of the bride. Most people prefer traditional bouquets for weddings. However, posies from contemporary collections have multiple flower options, including those with traditional flowers. Posies give a trailing cascade look, especially with an A-line minimalist gown.
(3) Trail Bouquets
Long, slim and flowing like a waterfall, the trail arrangement makes a bride look taller and gorgeous. The bouquet is a hand-picked arrangement of exotic flowers such as orchids, African daisies, jasmines and Dutch roses. Ideal for creating a Bohemian setting, trails again give a vintage appeal to the whole bridal outfit.
(4) Pomander Bouquet
Pomanders are stuffed flower bouquets, shaped like a ball. They are rather creative in design. The ball-shaped bouquet works wonderfully well with delicate arrangements of flowers such as tulips, peonies, and roses.
A pomander is held in place with satin ribbons and pearly lace. A small miniature pomander bracelet-like bouquet can be donned on the wrist.
(5) Bag and Fan Bouquet
These bouquets are a modern take on the fashionable trend of simplicity and practical flower arrangements. The bag bouquets come with extensive range of designs. With the flowers daintily arranged like a bag, the bride can choose from fresh flowers or dry flowers. It is designed keeping in mind practical utility also. The size of the bag complements the dress length.
Fans are a striking collection of flowers decorated with ribbons, pearls and gemstone chains. The fan is like a trophy memento, and it fits in perfectly into photographs, retaining its charm for ages to come.
No matter what time of the day, choose a wedding bouquet with complimentary and contrasting colour themes, laced with foliage, ribbons and crystals. Last but not the least, don’t forget to drizzle a bloomy fragrance for an undying sniff throughout the wedding ritual.
