The bridal bouquet is one of the most important elements in the aesthetics of a wedding. It not only complements the dressIt also reflects the personality and style of the bride. Choosing the right bouquet may seem challenging, but with these tips and my experience as a hairdresser specialised in wedding hairstyles on the Costa del Sol, you will find the perfect design for your big day.
1. Consider the style of the wedding
Each wedding has a particular theme or style, and the bouquet should harmonise with the overall aesthetic. If your wedding is classic and elegantA structured bouquet with roses or peonies will be perfect. For bohemian or rustic weddingsA wild bouquet with foliage and unstructured flowers is the best choice.
It is important that the bouquet is in harmony with the decoration and the setting. If the wedding takes place on the beachA bouquet with fresh flowers and vibrant colours can add a special touch. On the other hand, if it is in a garden, a bouquet with earthy tones and natural elements such as branches and leaves can be ideal.
2. Consider your dress and hairstyle.
The bouquet should complement the wedding dress design and the hairstyle. If you are wearing a sophisticated up-do, a structured bouquet can add balance. For a looser, more natural hairstyle, a wild bouquet will harmonise perfectly with the look.
If in addition to the hairstyle you are concerned about the wedding make-upFor example, consider a bouquet that matches the tones you will use on your face. For example, if you opt for a make-up in warm tonesA bouquet of peach or burgundy flowers can make your bridal look stand out even more.
3. Choose seasonal flowers
Opting for seasonal flowers will not only help you cut costs, but will also ensure that the flowers look fresh and natural. Research which ones are available at the time of your wedding and consult with a florist for the best options.
Some popular seasonal flowers include:
- Spring: Peonies, tulips and lilies.
- Summer: Sunflowers, dahlias, hydrangeas.
- Autumn: Chrysanthemums, garden roses, amaryllis.
- Winter: Anemones, camellias, jasmine.
4. Consider your height and build
The size of the bouquet should be in balance with the bride's build. If you are tall, a large, elongated bouquet may suit you. If you are short, a compact, round bouquet is a better choice so as not to disproportionate the image.
Also, if you are wearing a dress with voluminous details, a discreet bouquet will be an excellent choice. On the other hand, if the dress is simpler, a large, eye-catching bouquet can be a beautiful focal point.
5. Define a colour palette
The bouquet should match the colour palette of the wedding and the tone of the dress. If your dress is pure white, flowers in pastel or vibrant shades can create a beautiful contrast. For dresses in ivory or champagne tones, warm colours such as peach or burgundy look stunning.
If the wedding make-up also has a specific colour range, you can choose a bouquet that complements these tones. In this way, you will achieve a harmonious and well thought-out look.
6. Add a personal touch
The bouquet is an opportunity to reflect your personality and add a meaningful detail. You can include flowers with sentimental value, a special bow or small accessories that represent your love story.
If you have a more modern and daring style, you can even opt for a bouquet with unconventional elements such as succulents, feathers or metallic details. In contrast, if you prefer a romantic style, roses and long-stemmed flowers will be a safe bet.
7. Make sure it is comfortable to wear
Remember that you will be carrying the bouquet for a long time, so make sure it is a comfortable size and weight. A skilled florist will be able to help you create a structure that is easy to hold without being uncomfortable.
At the same time, think about the photo shoot. The right shaped bouquet can complement your poses and stand out in every picture. In the same way that a well-crafted wedding hairstyle highlights your beauty, a well-chosen bouquet will add a magical touch to the photos of your big day.
