TRENDSPOTTER: The Latest in Bridal Bouquets

Bouquets are a big part of any wedding and the perfect way to bring out your personal style. The latest trend is to adorn the Bride's bouquet with something personal – an heirloom handkerchief, a family brooch or monogrammed ribbon - to dress up the stems and blooms. If your looking to add natural or beach elements, starfish, feathers, or small pieces of curly willow can make a dramatic impact.


Lilies, Dahlias, peonies, ranunculus, hydrangeas, tulips and orchids represent some of the most elegant and popular flowers for bouquets. Many are opting for a tight bouquet vs. the cascade, though a modern version of the traditional cascade is emerging as a sophisticated alternative.


 




Of course you also want to consider the environment when thinking about your flowers. If this is at the top of your list, be sure to work with a floral designer that works with environmentally friendly products and has connections with local growers. You'll be surprised what's available!
Whatever your style or favorite flower, work with your floral designer to create with significance. Think beyond just a bouquet of mere flowers - it can be so much more!
