Many brides assume that bouquets are just flowers bunched together and bound in some way. What they don’t realize is that there is a lot more that goes into a wedding bouquet, including the shape. We most commonly know of the round bouquet, however less common shapes are starting to make their way into weddings, such as the cascade or pageant. Some are so uncommon, however, many people have never even seen one of the kind (the pomander).
Wondering what bouquet would be best for your wedding? First, consider the theme of your wedding, as well as your dress. Round bouquets pair beautifully with elegant, classic weddings. Cascading bouquets look amazing next to form fitting dresses and can add a whimsical, fairy tale-like feel to your wedding. Posy bouquets would be perfect for a civil ceremony at a courthouse since it’s small and wouldn’t overpower a short or simple dress. Any style can be stunning, so ultimately, which bouquet you choose is totally your choice!
