Choosing the perfect bridal bouquet, the one and only to remember forever, is a crucial decision for any bride-to-be. From considering the season and color palette to choosing the right floral types and sizes, there are many essential things to consider before making the best choice for the special day. Read through and get inspired with the tips we've compiled together to simplify the process of finding the ideal wedding bouquet.
Think About Your Wedding
Your bridal bouquet should complement your wedding in all of its aspects. Dress is vital: consider the style, neckline, and overall silhouette of your gown when choosing the shape and size of your bouquet. If your dress is simple, you can opt for a more elaborate bouquet. If your dress is detailed, a more simple bouquet may be a better choice. A perfect bouquet should also go well with your wedding color palette. Consider the colors of your bridesmaid dresses, reception decor, and overall theme. Another essential part is the season: with a summer wedding, try to choose flowers that can withstand the heat, and similarly with cold weather events.

Consider Size and Shape
Nowadays, you can choose from a wide variety of different shapes and types of bouquets, from petite and chic to minimalist and luxurious to larger and more voluminous. As we mentioned above, you need to consider your wedding style so that there is no dissonance. We also recommend that you focus on how the bouquet will look in the photo, whether it will be comfortable to hold it, and what shots you would like to see with the bouquet.

Add Yourself to It
Think about your favorite flowers and incorporate them into your bouquet. Whether it's roses, peonies, lilies, or any other floral variety, including your favorite blooms will add a personal touch to your bouquet. This will not only make this bouquet perfect and unique, but it will also help to keep the happy associations alive.

Trust the Florist
It is certainly worth negotiating in advance with the florist whose work inspires you. Schedule a consultation with your florist, online or offline, to discuss your vision for your bridal bouquet. Show your wedding colors, pictures of your dress, further inspiration for your event to help your florist understand your style and preferences. If you realize during the process that the professional has a feel for your aesthetic, then try to relax and trust the process.

Try Both Trendy and Timeless
On the one hand, it is possible to avoid being too trendy by adding a personal and individual touch to the design of the bouquet, as we mentioned above. If you want something more classic, we suggest trying to keep the line between fashion and tradition: for example, combining a classic flower selection with trendy bows or color accents.
