01. LIGHT TONES

 

These bouquets evoke a sense of romance and ethereal beauty. The delicate colors and soft textures lend a romantic ambiance to the wedding, exude elegance and timelessness. Soft pastel shades, ivory tones, and delicate creams create a classic and refined look that complements a bride's wedding attire beautifully. Light-toned bouquets can feature a variety of flowers, from classic roses and peonies to airy baby's breath and elegant orchids. The soft color palette allows for seamless blending of different floral varieties, creating a cohesive and harmonious bouquet.

 
 

 

02. FULL OF COLOR

 

Colorful bouquets can reflect the changing seasons and the natural beauty of the surroundings. For example, spring weddings might feature bright pastels and blooming flowers, while fall weddings could showcase rich oranges, yellows, and reds. Those bouquets stand out against the bride's gown and can create a striking visual impact, especially in photographs. Bright and contrasting colors can draw attention and make a bold statement, enhancing the overall beauty of the bridal ensemble.

 
 

 

03. WILDFLOWERS

 

Opting for wildflowers can be a more sustainable choice compared to imported or greenhouse-grown blooms. Wildflowers typically require fewer resources to grow and cultivate, and their use supports local ecosystems and biodiversity. They also often have a more relaxed and organic appearance compared to traditional wedding flowers. Their natural shapes and textures add depth and movement to bouquets, creating visually dynamic arrangements that photograph beautifully.

04. BOUQUET DETAILS

 

Incorporate a small family heirloom, such as a locket, brooch, or piece of lace, into the bouquet. This adds sentimental value and creates a connection to loved ones who may not be present. You can also attach charms or trinkets that hold special significance, such as initials, birthstones, or symbols representing shared interests or inside jokes between you and your loved one.
