Guide to flower arrangements & types of Bouquet styles
Wedding bouquet - an important attribute for the newlywed. Every girl getting married puts a special meaning in the flowers. This attribute will adorn any bride and add a touch of romance and vitality. In order not to miscalculate with the choice, you need to know what kinds of wedding bouquets there are. Floral arrangement enhances the bride's image with romanticism, emphasizing the beauty and uniqueness of her outfit.
The types of bouquets described in this article can be created by almost any florist or simply found online on a site like Flowwow.
1. Hand-Tied Bouquets
Hand-tied bouquets are flowers assembled and tied by a florist using ribbon. Despite its simplicity, its casual aesthetic makes it in demand among those who prefer themes that mimic a boho wedding. However, because of how lush the flowers are, carrying hand-knotted bouquets for long periods is far from ideal.
2. The Posy Bouquet
A Posy bouquet is a unique composition of seasonal flowers with lots of colourful memories of the season. As a rule, it is tiny and can be easily carried in one hand. Posy bouquet is a popular option for bridesmaids at the wedding.
It’s also fairly easy to find them as farm-fresh bridal bouquets online or from a local florist. The bouquet can be personalized and may contain several types of flowers that the bride or couple-to-be cherishes the most.
3. Biedermeier Bouquet
Biedermeier Bouquet is the most popular bridal bouquet shape and is a classic. This flower arrangement is a round bouquet that simulates a hemisphere. The diameter varies, but the standard size is around 20 inches.
There are no limits to creativity in the design: whether large or small flowers, one type of flower or several, crepe paper tied around the stems, or fine fabric, you decide.
Princess cut and voluminous skirts fit this kind of bouquet perfectly. However, due to the variety of designs, it is an all-rounder and can be worn with all dresses.
4. Cascade/Waterfall Bouquet
As the name suggests, the special feature of this bouquet is that it falls on one side like a waterfall. Accordingly, one side is much longer than the rest. It is very classic and can be wonderfully combined with a veil. However, due to its unusual look, it is rarely used as a bridal bouquet.
5. Composite Bouquet
A composite wedding bouquet resembles a giant flower, but it is created by carefully assembling petals of many flowers with the florist's glue. In many cases, one real flower forms the centre of the bouquet. The effect requires great skill, but the results are stunning.
Flowers with thick, waxy petals that stand up to extra processing and gluing make the best compositional wedding bouquets. Wedding florists often use lilies and orchids to create these bouquets. Flowers with more delicate petals, such as roses, are also an option, but cannot last all through a wedding and outdoor reception.
6. Presentation Bouquet
The presentation bouquet also called a lush bouquet, is a stunning piece of art. It is slightly different from the traditional style of carrying flowers, which is usually in the palm of your hand. Presentation bouquets consist of a combination of several bundles of flowers on long stems that must be held often with both hands.
The presentation bouquet attracts attention even in modest shades of white. Peruvian lilies add exquisitely subtle purple accents. Other white flowers suitable for such a wedding bouquet are delphiniums, long-stemmed roses, or gladioluses.
7. Nosegay Bouquet
Nosegay is the British variety of round bouquets. This is a small bouquet in which the flowers are very tightly pressed together. Usually, they are framed by lace, and the stems are hidden in a special stand. It is an exquisite decoration.
8. Pomander Bouquet
A pomander is a balloon-shaped bouquet, often bridal, which is attached to the bride's wrist. Such compositions have long enjoyed success in Europe. Its popularity is due to its simplicity, convenience, sophistication, and originality.
Judge for yourself: no need to limit yourself in the choice of flowers, the newlywed will not need to carry a bouquet in hand (which restrains the movement), it will just hang on the wrist, creating a romantic and sophisticated image.
9. Basket Bouquets
Flower arrangement in a basket has always been a popular gift for birthdays, weddings, and any significant event. The basket looks presentable and expensive, moreover, it keeps fresh longer than a bouquet on long stems. The basket can be watered as a houseplant, prolonging the bouquet's life.
The secret of the freshness of flowers in a basket is in a floral sponge, which is used to make bouquets.
