Guide to Choosing the Perfect Bridal Bouquet

Guide to Choosing the Perfect Bridal Bouquet

Your bridal bouquet is more than just a bunch of flowers; it is a central piece of your wedding day aesthetic and a personal statement that complements your overall bridal look. At BOUQUET Melbourne, we understand the importance of every detail in wedding floristry. Here are some key factors to consider when selecting your bridal bouquet.

Matching Your Bouquet to the Wedding Style and Setting

The style and venue of your wedding significantly influence your bouquet choice. A formal ballroom wedding might call for a structured bouquet, while a wedding by the bay suits a relaxed, whimsical arrangement. The shape of your bouquet—whether wide, whimsical, or domed—should also align with your theme. Wide bouquets make a bold statement, whimsical bouquets add playful elegance, and domed bouquets offer classic appeal. We craft bouquets that harmonise beautifully with your theme and setting.

Seasonal Blooms for Natural Beauty

The time of year you choose to exchange your vows will influence the types of flowers available for your bouquet. Opting for seasonal blooms not only ensures the freshest, most vibrant flowers but also contributes to a sustainable and cost-effective wedding. Our wedding florist Melbourne team can guide you through selecting the best seasonal flowers that capture the essence of your wedding month, whether it’s the rich hues of autumn or the delicate pastels of spring.

Complement Your Dress

Let the design of your wedding dress guide your bouquet choice. A highly detailed gown pairs best with a simple bouquet, ensuring the dress remains the focal point. Conversely, a minimalist dress can be beautifully complemented by a more elaborate floral arrangement. When consulting with your florist, consider the silhouette, colour, and embellishments of your gown to create a bouquet that enhances your bridal look.

Choosing the Perfect Colour Palette

The colour palette of your bouquet should harmonise with your overall wedding colours and theme. Soft pastels can evoke a romantic and classic feel, while bold and vibrant colours can make a striking statement. Consider the colours of your bridesmaids’ dresses, the décor, and the setting of your wedding when selecting your bouquet colours. Our team at BOUQUET Melbourne can help you choose florals that elevates your chosen colour palette that ties everything together beautifully and complements your personal style.

The Right Fit for You

The size and weight of your bouquet are crucial, especially if you'll be holding it for long periods. While images of bouquets overflowing with roses can be inspiring, a bouquet with 35 roses can be large and heavy, potentially becoming uncomfortable throughout your wedding day. BOUQUET Melbourne can you choose a bouquet that feels comfortable to hold and looks stunning in photos and as you walk down the aisle

Reflect Your Personal Style

Whether you prefer something bold and colourful or soft and understated, your bouquet should reflect your personality. At BOUQUET Melbourne, we encourage brides to share their vision and personal style with us so that we can create a truly personalised bouquet that feels like a part of their bridal ensemble.
