What’s Your Bouquet Style?

I always find it so interesting how wedding trends start or come back around again. Just recently I’ve had several brides wanting cascading bouquets again, which I love.  Photo by Liz Banfield.

 Still a classic and often requested is the all white look. Luckily, depending on the variety,  “white” flowers have so many different tones and hues that pairing them together still creates depth and dimension which is important for your photos. Photo by Liz Banfield.

 I do love a colorful bouquet as well. We actually usually make two bouquets on the day of for our brides to choose from, especially if I get an amazing selection that are just too good to pass up… I’ll make an all white if that’s what she requested, but then something with some color in case she sees that and falls in love!

This is one of my all time favorite bouquets. Lady Slipper Orchids aren’t typically something you’d necessarily see in a bouquet… This bride’s color scheme was green, white, and black, so we were able to use that to our advantage when designing her flowers. The lily of the valley and huge peonies were just icing on the cake. Photo by Liz Banfield.

 I love the classic and romantic take on this hand tied bouquet- just simple cream roses with longer stems and some leaves still on as if was just gathered from a Paris flower market.  Photo by Adrienne Page

For a simple but still impactful look, we kept the bouquet monochromatic and still so full and layered. Ask and speak with your florist about using flowers that are hearty enough to be out of water for lenths of time especially when using whites so that the browning and wilting doesn’t show through in your pictures.

Sometimes a more ethereal gathered mix best suites the bride. Keeping some of the flowers’ own greenery gives a more natural feel.

Mixing wildflowers and greenery with more traditional anchor flowers helps keep the bouquet polished and a not a wilted mess, but still the appearance that a more bohemian brides is look for.
