Suggestions for a Small Wedding Bouquet
Weddings are special events in our lives and we want them to be near perfect as possible. Most of the decisions for the wedding preparations are made and done by the couple themselves, especially the bride. One of the decisions that she has to make is what kind of bouquet she will have on her wedding day. There are flowing bouquets, large spray bouquets and even a small wedding bouquet.
Choices for a Small Wedding Bouquet
Some brides prefer the small wedding bouquet compared to the really large ones. There are several flowers that work well as a small wedding bouquet and these include tea roses, tiger lilies, babies' breath, delphiniums, freesias, asters and many more. Most of the mentioned flowers can also be used for larger bouquets but they can also be combined with other smaller filler flowers to make a stunning small wedding bouquet.
Arrangements for Small Wedding Bouquets
Some of the usual arrangements for small wedding bouquets are nosegays, posies and others that can usually be held in just one hand. These range from a bunch of flowers that are cut short and their stalks tied together. This design usually complements tulips and calla lilies.
Posies are small wedding bouquets that are a mixture of different flowers. They are usually smaller blooms that are combined to make up a riot (beautiful looking riot that is) of flowers. In most cases, this small wedding bouquet has different colored flowers as well. The bride can also choose to have a smaller spray of flowers that spill from the bouquet. This is a larger bouquet than the nosegays and posies but still can be small enough to hold in just one hand.
Brides can also choose to have berries and other smaller fruits in their small wedding bouquet. This is usually done during the Christmas season when deep reds and greens are usually the colors used for weddings.
The small wedding bouquet is a lot safer to throw compared to the larger ones. Smaller bouquets also do not cost more than the bigger ones since there are lesser flowers needed for the smaller ones. Before you finalize your bouquet order you must first be able to see what kind of wedding bouquet the florist has in mind for you. Do not be afraid to voice out your opinion regarding the bouquet since it is your wedding. Make sure that the florist knows what you want before you pay big bucks.
