6 Bridal Bouquet Choices for the Bride-To-Be

With one passing glance, bridal bouquets look more or less the same: pretty, elegant, Instagrammable, and wedding-ready. You could never be more wrong.

There is an abundance of variations when it comes to floral design. It’s not simply about the color or the types of flowers used; the way flowers are placed and arranged also creates a lasting impact on the overall effect and style you’re going for.

Doing your research is essential for the picture-perfect look, from hairstyle and all the way down to bouquet placement. Here are 7 well-loved, uniquely-shaped bridal bouquets to get you started.

Round
Easily the most popular bouquet type, the round bouquet is fashioned into a neat and circular dome as the name suggests.

It is evenly-structured, often having more flowers than greenery to paint a harmonized and balanced appearance. This style usually consists of fewer monochromatic flower types to keep things consistent. Roses, peonies, anemones, and other flowers with a round bloom are ideal for this bouquet.

The Biedermeier and posy bouquets are variations of the round-styled bouquet. Generally, they work well with traditional, formal, or modern wedding ceremonies.

Cascade
The cascade bouquet is quite literally a waterfall of flowers, elegantly spilling out and down one side from the hand. A combination of greenery and blooms will get your bouquet that stunning tapering effect. Draping vines and orchids especially look beautiful in this arrangement.

The cascade makes for a strong statement and a dramatic entrance so it’s important to keep your gown simple to achieve an elegant, balanced look. It’s perfect for high-end, elegant types of ceremonies and even a garden wedding.

Single Stem
Simplicity is beauty with the Single Stem type. Instead of the usual flower bunch, the gentle accent of a single stem of statement blooms like hydrangea, peonies, or roses can make all the difference.

This style is ideal for brides on a budget or if you simply want a simple, sincere, touchingly romantic look. Sometimes less is more, indeed.

Crescent
For a unique and elegant look, the crescent bouquet takes the cake. Structured in a soft arch, here the flowers are typically compact in the middle and then extend out of both sides into a more tapered form akin to a quarter moon.

Naturally-draping greenery such as star asparagus or cascading ivy is recommended for this type, paired with wispy blooms like ranunculus and hanging amaranthus.

The crescent bouquet is a great option for brides looking for something different. It fits well with a variety of themes and settings from modern, romantic, to whimsical.

Composite
The composite bouquet or glamelia is a big-impact, highly innovative and stylized bouquet. It is a series of individual petals, buds, and blooms wired together to resemble one single, giant bloom. It’s essentially a large flower intricately made of smaller flowers.

This bouquet is bound to exude an extravagant, dramatic effect that would contrast well with a simple wedding gown. It’s great for refined and lavish wedding ceremonies, too. The downside is the composite bouquet can be expensive and challenging to do yourself. An
experienced florist from Modiste La Mode Fashion can be tapped for a composite bunch.

Presentation
Also known as pageant bouquets, this style is a sensational fresh staple in weddings.
Presentation bouquets look just like the flowers that pageant winners receive along with their crown and sash. It makes you feel like a queen in your own wedding, and aptly so; it’s your day, after all.

This style is incredibly flexible. It can be designed simplistically for an elegant, crisp look or it can be elaborated for a more lavish take. The good thing about this bouquet is it’s easy to carry, fitting seamlessly within the crook of the bride’s arm. Long-stemmed flowers like calla lilies, roses, and orchids would make for stunning presentation bouquets.
