One of the biggest wedding accessories a bride will have on her wedding day is her bridal bouquet. When thinking about what type of wedding bouquet yours will be, brides need to consider two things - style and class.
No matter what you choose, try to make sure your wedding bouquet complements your wedding gown and the theme of the day. Also, make sure the bouquet is not too big for your body type. Your floral designer should consider your body type and the style of your dress and be able to determine the best size of bouquet for you. Please listen to them when they offer their advice; you really don't want the bouquet to stand out - you want it to blend into your wedding day ensemble.

One thing that brides often overlook is how their bridal bouquets stems are wrapped. Most wedding bouquets are wrapped in ribbon or leaves, but nowadays we are seeing pearls, gorgeous gems, pins and vintage broaches attached to the ribbon wrap. Doing this takes the typical bouquet up a few notches to spectacular. That little bit of bling goes a long way, especially when the photographer stages a photo of your bouquet and you see it in the album afterwards. It's a beautiful way to always look back at how gorgeous you and your bouquet made a perfect fit on your wedding day.
