1. Use Your Wedding Dress as Your Go-To Guide
There are so many flowers that can make the perfect bouquet, but they need to be compatible with your dress. Your bridal bouquet needs to go hand in hand (literally) with your wedding dress, it needs to draw attention, and it needs to further enhance your magical look for that night. Choose the bouquet depending on the type of wedding dress. For example, if you’re going to be wearing an embroidered wedding gown, then consider choosing a bridal bouquet made out of hydrangeas, roses, dahlias, and gardenias – all gathered in different shades of red, pink, and white. If you’re going to be wearing something simple as your wedding dress, then you need to make it up by selecting large flowers such as succulents, orchids, and most importantly, roses.
2. Coordinate Your Bouquet With the Bridesmaids
Both your wedding bouquet and those of the bridesmaids need to be similar in order to create a harmonious look. For this, you can create your bouquet from all the combinations of flowers that the bridesmaids’ will have. If your bridesmaids’ bouquets are made out of roses, lilies, and dahlias, then consider making a combination out of all of those flowers. The options are endless just make sure your bouquet stands out from the rest.
3. Revolve Around a Theme
If you are planning a theme for your wedding, then it will be crucial your bouquet matches the theme itself. This can be done by selecting flowers that will match the color schemes of the theme. Take into consideration the decorations for your wedding. Your bouquet needs to compliment you and your wedding, and not act as a standalone feature.
