>A bouquet just right for you

Modern Wedding Posted: September 7, 2010

>The flowers you hold as you walk down the aisle, revealing to your beloved just how amazingly beautiful his future wife is, are an extremely important accessory than could make or break your whole look.... OK it might not be that drastic, but it will look a lot better if you pick the right style for your dress.

To make this decision easy here are a few beautiful bouquets, which I have used as examples of the typical shapes you can choose. I have written what dress styles go with each shape. Easy!

Floralevent

A posy bouquet - Circular in shape.
To suit dress style - Any

Strathmore Flowers

Formal bouquet - Circular with an even edge of foliage boardering the flowers.
To suit dress style: Ballgown, slim-line, A-line, detailed gown.

Floralevent

Informal posy - flowers less uniform.
To suit casual style dresses of any shape or length.

Rachael Read Flowers

Shower bouquet - Top consists of a posy, then flows down into a single narrow, long trail.
This style suits slim-line and A-line gowns with little to no detail on the front of the dress.

Vesna Grasso - Floral Designer

The teardrop bouquet
These bouquets suit A-line, slim-line and fishtail dresses with little detail on the front of the gown.

The feathered Rose

The Sheaf-style bouquet.
These bouquets go well with dresses that have less detail on the bodice. Suits A-line, slim-line, fishtail and ballgowns.

 

Flowers Express

Natural stem bouquet
Perfect for a garden wedding, these bouquets go well with most dress styles, however if you are wearing a ballgown - it's best to stick to a bouquet that is more formal.

Maria's Fresh Flowers

Trail bouquet
This style suits slim-line and A-line gowns with little to no detail on the front of the dress.

This is a rough guide to get you started. If you are in love with a style of bouquet - make sure you talk to your florist about your gown shape and discuss the suitability with them!
