One of the nicest elements of weddings is the bouquet the bride’s maids will walk down the aisle with as anticipation builds up to the bride’s grand entrance. Regardless of wedding size, intimate or grand, the bouquet is trademark of décor which will reflect the style of the couple about to exchange their vows. When designing a bouquet, brides always assume they have to stick to a particular color to match their bridesmaid’s dresses and that, my darling brides is the furthers from the truth.
When thinking about your flowers, it’s perfectly ok to go outside your girl’s dress colors. It’s ok to mix the colors up to reflect your style. One way to do this is to use the flowers as an “accent” color. One of my recent bride’s colors were black with “accent” colors of pink and silver. The bride wore her Ivory gown, the bridesmaids wore black dresses, and they carried solid bold fuchsia bouquets wrapped in silver and it was stunning! Looking through my albums I thought I would share with you some of my favorite bouquets and I hope you’ll find some inspiration in them.
As always, I would love your feedback and thoughts on these bouquets. What are your colors? Are you mixing them up? How are you going about in designing your bouquet?
Inspired by you,
