Bright Florals and Charcuterie Bright colors enliven a wedding day and a bridal bouquet. These florals from Riverstone Florals & Design are perfect for a fall or summer wedding when a bride chooses colors such as pink and bright orange and textures such as feathers in her bouquet. Charcuterie from Boarded Creations echoes bright colors and textures. (Erika Follansbee Photography)

Bridal Bouquet Beauty Every bride wishes her bouquet lasted forever in its original fresh beauty. To capture the gorgeous look of your wedding bouquet, one way to do so is with a painting of the flowers. A watercolor painting of the bouquet by Welcome Home Watercolors is a keepsake of the florals; the above painting captured colorful autumn flowers, including the bride’s favorite: Sunflowers.
