With so many styles, colors, types of flowers, sizes, shapes, and more, the bouquet provides an excellent opportunity for you to customize the aesthetics of the item at the heart of your ceremony.
When thinking about what to include in your bouquet, start by considering your dress.
The colors, flowers, and design of the bouquet should complement the dress, working alongside it to provide a unified visual feeling that communicates your unique style.
While all foliage has traditional symbolic meanings, some might resonate with significance that is particular to you, your family, or your beloved.
For example, you might design your bouquet around the flowers that were on the table at your first date. Or perhaps the bouquet centers on the kinds of plants growing around your family farm.
If your mother or your spouse’s mother carried a particular kind of flower in their bouquet, you can honor that tradition by making it part of yours. Do not be afraid to integrate non-traditional materials into your bouquet.
Flowers are the usual components of wedding bouquets, but adding other items—such as leaves, ribbons, berries, fruits, crafted items, and so forth—can add a personalized, original touch.
And if you just cannot decide on which bouquet you like, pick three of your favorites and make your final choice on the day of the wedding. Then you can give the other two bouquets as gifts to your maid of honor, your mother, or the mother of your spouse.
