How to Choose Your Wedding Bouquet Style

Choosing the perfect wedding bouquet can be a daunting task for any bride-to-be. With so many styles, colours, and types of flowers to choose from, it's easy to get overwhelmed. However, with a little bit of planning and some helpful tips, you can find a wedding bouquet that perfectly complements your wedding dress and overall style. Here's how to choose a wedding bouquet style:

Consider Your Wedding Dress

Your wedding bouquet should complement your wedding dress, not compete with it. Consider the style and colour of your dress when choosing your bouquet. If your dress is a simple, classic style, you may want to opt for a more elaborate bouquet with lots of texture and colour. If your dress is more ornate, a simple, elegant bouquet may work better. We don’t want to catch any stems on beading or lace.

Think About Your Wedding Theme

Your wedding bouquet can also tie in with your wedding theme. If you're having a rustic outdoor wedding, a bouquet with wildflowers and greenery would be a great fit. For a more classic and elegant wedding, a bouquet with classic roses or peonies would be a better choice.

Choose Your Bouquet Shape

Bouquets come in many different shapes, including round, cascading, and hand-tied. Round bouquets are classic and versatile, while cascading bouquets are more dramatic and formal. Hand-tied bouquets have a more natural, organic and garden feel.

Select Your Flower Type

The flowers we choose for your bouquet will have a big impact on the overall look and feel of your bouquet. Some popular wedding flowers include roses, peonies, dahlias, and hydrangeas. Consider the season when selecting your flowers, as well as your colour scheme. Closing seasonal blooms will ensure we have the best blooms avaialble for your wedding day. They will be in abundance, be great quality and will stand up to the elements.

Don't Forget About Size

The size of your bouquet should be in proportion to your body size and the style of your dress. You don't want a tiny bouquet that gets lost in your dress, nor do you want a giant bouquet that overwhelms your look.

Consult With a Professional Florist

As your wedding florist we can be a great resource when it comes to choosing your wedding bouquet. We can offer advice on flower types, colours, and arrangements, as well as help you stay within your investment. When you book your complimentary styling session be sure to have on hand pictures of your dress and any inspiration photos you may have to reference during your consultation.

By following these tips, you'll be able to choose a wedding bouquet that perfectly complements your style and adds the perfect finishing touch to your wedding day look.

Until next time
