How to Incorporate Flowers into Your Wedding
Your Bridal Bouquet
The bridal bouquet is arguably the most important floral arrangement of the day. It should reflect your personal style and complement your wedding dress. Everyone else's flowers follow the brides bouquet - the bridesmaids, groomsmen, and even the decor. This is why it's important to carefully consider your options and work closely with your florist to create a stunning bouquet that will make a statement on your special day!
Bridesmaid Bouquets
Your bridesmaids' bouquets should complement the bridal bouquet while still showcasing their individual personalities. One way to achieve this is by using a mix of flowers in similar colours and styles. For example, if your bouquet has roses and peonies, you can have the bridesmaids' bouquets with smaller versions of these flowers.
Groomsmen
For the groomsmen, boutonnieres are typically worn on the left side of their jacket lapel. While traditional boutonnieres consist of one small flower, nowadays there are many creative options available. You could opt for a succulent or even include small accents that match the brides maids' bouquets.
