Choosing our wedding flower bouquet

wedding flower bouquet 

Our wedding will be having a tiffany blue theme. So it would be nice if Michelle had a nice matching wedding flower bouquet in that colour too. I will need to take a mental note and inform Loyal Bridal about it.

Now that the colour has been settled, there are other things to consider on the wedding bouquet - like body, shape,etc. Here’s a nice post on that matter.

There is an astonishing array of bouquet types available to the bride, and with all that choice, it can be hard to know where to start. A pageant bouquet (also called arm, sheaf, or presentation), hand-tied bouquets, and various specialty bouquets work for just about anyone, because they can all be created in dramatically different sizes, depending on the type and number of blooms used.
