Here’s How You Can Choose the Perfect Wedding Bouquet

Time to bring your floral invitation to life, step up in your wedding planning and choose the impeccable wedding bouquet. On your special day, you’re the center of attraction. But there’s something that is more attractive than the couple themselves. These little connoisseurs of enchanting fragrance enthrall the guests to the core. So it is imperative to make the right choice and pick the best floral bouquet even it is not a spring wedding! At 123WeddingCards, we present you the go-to guide for your selection process.

1. Selecting the color:

The main factor that connects the accessories with the aura is the color of the decor. To make sure that you pick the perfect color, we bring to you some guiding steps:

a. Select the color that falls in your wedding color scheme.

If your wedding decor is in tones of lilac and white, it’ll pair up elegantly with petite bouquets of purple Hydrangea – a bloom flower with purple leaves wherein, the purple fades into a scintillating shade of white twinning with your decor and forming a beautiful centerpiece. They are royal embellishments on arches and pillars. You can even opt for replicas of flowers printed in your floral invitations.

b. Contrast works magic too.

Wedding decor of a darker shade teams up with lighter accessories or vice versa and adds an attractive element to the wedding venue. A bright ‘red' or ravishing ‘green' decoration calls for a lighter shade of wedding flower bouquet. Long bouquets of yellow Gladiolus make up for a centerpiece that is soothing and graceful.

c. Pair it with the bridal bouquet.

For this, be sure that the color of the bridal bouquets and wedding bouquets is not the same. They should follow the same color family of reds, blues, greens or pinks but be distinctive.The star-like blue Agapanthus bouquets for the bridesmaid's bouquets and oversized blue silk bouquets pair for the decor is pleasing to the eye and distinguishable!

2.    Show your style through your flowers: 

Are you a trend-setter? Or are you someone who prefers lighter tones over blasting colors? Your wedding flower bouquets speak for your style, like floral wedding invitation. If you’re the bold one who kicks off things that hasn’t been done before, exotic flowers are the ideal match. Calla lily and Anthurium are worth giving a try. Strelitzia is an unknown beauty too. It’s an orange color blossom with thin long pointed leaves that vibe magically with an electric blue decor.

If you prefer to go with the flow, our pick for you will be roses. They never grow old like rose floral invitations and coordinate with every decor style. With their refreshing fragrance enriching our nostrils long after they’re gone and a multitude of colors they’re available in, make them the best flowers! Carnations, White Lilies, Gardenias, Peonies and orchids grab a place in the list too!

3.    Lighter than air, smaller than face. 

Once you’ve picked the colors and finalized the style, it’s time to select the weight and size of the bouquet. Bridesmaids’ bouquets should be lighter because they’ll hold them for a longer time. So, the ideal pick would be small, thin and long flowers. The long stems will be easier to hold. Buttercup bouquets with a single bloom will be perfect – they’ll be lighter because of only one bulb and look beautiful too! One bulb of Dahlia will make up for a bold pop against the otherwise soothing white gown.

The wedding bouquets should be smaller so that they don’t hide the bridesmaids' pretty faces or block the view of the guests if they’re used as centerpieces. Thus, lightweight bouquets win our hearts here as well.

4. Something about the wedding trends:

Wedding trends dictate a major chunk of our romantic thinking. So let’s have a look at what’s trending apart from floral invitations!
