Deciding on your wedding bouquet can be really overwhelming, there are so many different options out there and whilst your florist will help and guide you, it is good to have some ideas of what you like and what you don’t like.  A great starting point is to create a Pinterest board with everything you’re drawn to, whether it’s because you love it or loath it.  This is also a great way to help your florist understand the vision you have for your wedding day and how flowers will play a part.

When you’re gathering ideas, think about colours you like – do you have an idea of the colour palette featured throughout your wedding?  Have you chosen your bridesmaid dresses?  Do you like classic bouquets, sleek and stylish, wild and loose?  Classic and round, single stem, cascading?  Small, delicate or statement?

Be true to your own style, don’t feel like you have to follow the trends or be matchy-matchy with your other wedding flowers.

Here is just a selection of some wedding bouquet ideas to get you started:
