Your Wedding Flowers
Flowers
add natural beauty to your wedding. The best way to achieve the
atmosphere and style that you want is to hire a reputable and creative
florist to do your bouquets and flowers.
After the wedding, consider preserving your bouquet for a beautiful
keepsake of your special day. If you really want to toss a bouquet
at your reception, ask your florist to make you a special tossing
bouquet. Then you can keep your actual bouquet and have it preserved. |

Flowers for the Wedding Party
Bridesmaids carry bouquets similar to the bridal bouquet, but they are typically a touch smaller. They may also wear corsages or wrist
bracelets.
The Groom, Groomsmen, Ushers, and Fathers wear boutonnieres.
The boutonnieres may be of a different color or flower than the
bridesmaid's bouquet.
Don't be afraid to be creative! If you take a swatch of fabric
from the bridesmaid's dresses to your florist, he or she can even match
the flowers to the dress. |
