There was a time years ago when all bridal bouquets looked similar, brides would choose a shower bouquet for themselves and posies for their attendants generally in shades of peach or pink and that was it. Nowadays as much thought goes into the style of the flowers carried as the dress worn,in fact often the whole colour scheme will revolve around the choice of flowers with the theme carried through from the buttonholes to the reception arrangements. Today everyone wants something different, its exhilarating and refreshing for the florist to conjure up new designs for every bride. When choosing flowers think about your own personality and how you want to look on the day, where you marry will also influence your choice of bouquets, whatever style you decide on your flowers will provide the inspiration.
You may choose timeless elegance and sophistication as your wedding day theme then a cascade of sensuous Phalaenopsis orchids will be a breathtaking choice, a fairy tale wedding will call for romantic blowsy roses or peonies perhaps with a fine overlay of shimmering crystals. If your style is chic and contemporary, tiny modern handbags filled with flowers or wrist decorations will be upbeat and urban.
The choice is endless and the theme should continue through from your bouquet to your cake decoration. What is certain is that fabulous flowers will transform your wedding day into a spellbound day of sensational floral memories.
