Nothing says wedding like flowers…The wedding bouquet is an extremely important wedding accessory. It adds colour to your wedding dress. It is the main prop in the bouquet throw and it gives the bride something to do with her hands on her big day.
When choosing a bouquet, there is a variety of shapes to choose from. You can choose between round, starburst, crescent, presentation, cascade, biedermeier or even a single flower depending on your own personal style and the style of your wedding.
Round
Originally referred to as the posies bouquet. This round bouquet is a traditional and simplistic yet elegant style.
Starburst
A cascading style bouquet made from stargazers and other lilies.
Crescent
Made in the shape of a crescent moon. The flowers are arranged to the outside of a round bouquet to create the crescent shape
