Hand-tied wedding
bouquets continue to be
the favourite style for
wedding bouquets.
Hand-tied is where the
flowers are gathered
together and the stems
are wrapped in wide
ribbon. Bouquets
with a looser look have
replaced the more
tightly-bound shapes.
For a more glamorous
bouquets brides can add
beads, jewel pins,
rhinestone picks,
pearls, jewelry
and can dress add
beautiful ribbons
rather than the plain
ribbon to wrap the
stems.
With themed weddings
such as a garden or
beach themes, adding
feathers, shells,
berries and pinecones
adds to a beautiful
bouquet.
Roses are the most
popular flower for
wedding bouquets.
Calla Lilies, peonies,
hydrangeas, tulips and
orchids, gerbras are
becoming trendier
choices.

One of the
freshest
ideas is for
the mothers
of the bride
and groom to
forgo the
corsage.
More and
more mothers
are carrying
small posies
instead of
wearing the
traditional
corsage. |

Replace the more expensive or delicate flower such as the calla lily with a "silk" or "everlasting" flower. These products have come a long way and it is hard to differentiate what's real. Combining fresh and "artificial" is a very economical way to add the look that you want and to keep your costs down or preserve "look" with out the flower wilting or turning brown. |
