LoraShen florists reveal the secret of the perfect bridal bouquet
There is no single ideal bridal bouquet for all occasions. After all, each case will have its own characteristics. The shape, size and selection of flowers for a bouquet can be influenced by factors such as:
- dress color;
- ceremony style;
- season of the year;
- newlyweds preference.
Therefore, for each specific case, wedding bouquets of the bride are created with certain differences. However, there are certain secrets that can be used in each of the cases, bringing the composition closer to the ideal:
- The tone of the flowers should be several shades darker than the dress of the bride. For example, if the dress is cream-colored, then flowers with a pink tint are suitable for it. It would be wrong to choose white flowers in this situation, since against their background the dress will not look so expressive.
- The composition should be light and compact. During the wedding ceremony, the bride holds the bouquet in her hands for a long time. If the bride's bouquet is heavy, then it will not be easy for her to carry it with her all this time.
- The stems of the bouquet must be wound with ribbon so that the bride, when she takes the bouquet, does not come into contact with the stems. On the stems of flowers, the bride can stain her hands and dress.
- The composition should have a restrained aroma.
- Do not use too many decorative elements. It is enough to make minor accents with the help of small pearls, rhinestones and other decor.
Now you have a certain idea of what the bride's bouquet should be. Use these recommendations and remember that in the image of the bride, her dress should come first, and the bouquet should complement it, and not take all the attention.
What flowers to make a wedding bouquet
How to choose a bridal bouquet so that it fits perfectly with the image. First of all, you need to pay attention to the type of flowers. You can choose them according to your preference, but it is best to include in the bouquet exactly those flowers that best suit the dress and style in which the whole ceremony is performed.
Bouquets for the bride are created from completely different flowers:
- roses are one of the most popular flowers that symbolize love and beauty;
- orchids - they make mysterious and attractive bouquets with a certain mystery for them;
- hyacinths - very well suited for beautiful brides;
- lilies - emphasize the purity and innocence of the girl;
- peonies - in a bouquet will symbolize a long and happy life.
Also in the bridal bouquet you can include:
- lilies;
- camellias;
- eustoma;
- chamomile;
- lilies of the valley;
- freesia;
- ranunculus;
- daisies;
- chrysanthemums;
- other flowers.
Regardless of which flowers you choose in a bouquet, you must remember that it should look harmonious and complete. If it is difficult for you to understand how to choose a bridal bouquet and what flowers to include in it, then you can seek professional help from the florists of LoraShen. They will select flowers for you that will fit the image of the bride, the style of decoration of the ceremonial hall and personal preferences.
As a decoration in a wedding bouquet, you can include:
- gypsophila;
- sedge;
- aspidistu;
- asparagus;
- other.
If we talk about shades, then the classic option is white flowers with decorative greenery. So that the flowers do not merge with the dress, they choose pink and other pastel colors.
What flowers should be discarded in the bride's bouquet
From the point of view of floral etiquette, you should not add certain flowers and decorations to the bride's bouquet. They can add inappropriate symbolism to the bouquet, as well as make it heavy and too voluminous.
Avoid colors such as:
- callas;
- gladioli;
- carnations.
All these flowers are to some extent considered masculine, and therefore they are not very suitable for the image of the bride. On the other hand, there are various signs that indicate that these plants bring misfortune and misfortune to the newlyweds.
How to choose a wedding bouquet so as not to make a mistake with a shade? Flower buds should not be painted in the following colors:
- yellow;
- blue;
- black;
- maroon.
In the symbolism of flowers with such shades lie betrayals and numerous quarrels between future spouses. Also, in wedding bouquets, it is not advisable to use palm and fern leaves for decoration. It is believed that these plants do not contribute to the reunification of two hearts. If palm leaves carry conflicts, then ferns were previously used to induce damage, and therefore these plants should not be included in a wedding bouquet.
Bouquet shape and accessories
How attractive and comfortable the bride's bouquet will be depends largely on its shape. Florists make flower arrangements for a wedding in the following forms:
- round;
- cascading;
- in the form of a sphere;
- on a porta bouquet.
When it comes to choosing the shape of a bouquet, it is necessary to pay attention not only to the dress, but also to the height and type of the girl's figure. For tall brides, flower arrangements are suitable, in which the shape is slightly elongated. For little girls, spherical-shaped bouquets are most suitable. Such a mini bridal bouquet will complement small parameters well. Girls with a slender figure in their hands will look great round-type bouquets. For lush brides, it is better to choose bouquets in a cascading shape. Such flower arrangements will visually stretch the silhouette.
If you strive to ensure that your bouquet is perfect, then pay attention to hair color as well. For girls with blond hair, bouquets are suitable, in which the flowers will be painted in a lilac or pink tone. Do not pick white flowers. A bride with dark hair in her hands should carry a bouquet, the buds of which have white or red hues.
Additionally, you can decorate the bouquet with various accessories. First of all, tapes are used that rewind the stems tightly. They can be made from:
- burlap;
- cotton;
- atlas.
Organza ribbons can also be used. For the bride's bouquet, it is also important to use such decorative elements as:
- rhinestones;
- crystals;
- beads;
- sequins;
- other small decor.
Beautiful decorative elements will emphasize the whole style of the composition and give it a special character. It is important to remember that you should not use too much decor, which will visually make the composition heavier. Everything should be modest and tasteful.
How to choose a bouquet for a wedding dress
The bride's bouquet should first of all be in harmony with the dress. When choosing a bouquet, you need to start from what color and style the bride's dress will be. A classic round bouquet goes well with a ball gown wedding dress. The round shape will emphasize the lines of the outfit and make the whole look not too bulky.
Brides who have chosen a narrow dress for the wedding should give preference to elongated bouquets. In this case, a bouquet with long stems, which will be wrapped in ribbon, will look great. The bouquet should stand out a little against the background of the dress. The color of its buds should be 1-2 tones darker. You can also separate the bouquet from the dress according to color schemes with the help of green leaves. If you have some difficulties with the selection of a bouquet for a particular dress, you can seek help from florists.
The choice of bouquet depending on the season
With the onset of a particular season, certain flowers come to the fore that are best suited for a wedding bouquet. In the spring season, it is best to order bouquets from:
- tulips;
- freesia;
- peonies.
In the summer, give preference to orchids or tiger lilies. You can also order a bouquet of flowers such as:
- roses;
- irises;
- alstromerias;
- lisianthus.
In the autumn season, you can dilute the bridal bouquet with:
- dahlia;
- sunflowers;
- orchids;
- alstroemeria;
- various field flowers.
The best option for winter will be ranunculus and celosia. In any season of the year, you can also choose flowers such as:
- roses;
- chamomile;
- hydrangeas;
- gerberas;
- chrysanthemums.
However, it is best to give preference to seasonal colors, as they will play with bright and rich colors.
Signs and traditions when choosing a bouquet
According to existing signs, the bride's bouquet should be made only with the help of fresh flowers. It should be dominated by flowers of light colors, as they will symbolize a bright future. Yellow tulips are the heralds of separation. In addition to them, you should also not include callas, carnations and lilies in the bouquet. Orchids and lilies have a sharp aroma, and therefore you also need to be careful with them.
According to signs, it is believed that the bridegroom should buy a bouquet for the bride. However, this tradition fades into the background, as it is necessary that the bouquet be combined with the dress, and the groom cannot see the bride in the dress before the wedding. There is also a sign that the bride should only hold the bouquet herself. If she gives it to other hands, then it is considered that she gives her happiness. Therefore, when a bride throws a bouquet at a wedding, it is better to use another bouquet that is an identical copy.
