Brides Bouquets
Choosing the design to compliment your wedding dress, colour themes and ideas is so important to create the perfect wedding picture. The brides bouquet is the most important part of the flower designs, and everything else is made to compliment this. As each bride is different there are so many different designs to choose from. Shower bouquets are very popular, and look stunning with a traditional design dress. Handtied bouquets are also extremely popular and can be designed in a variety of ways from all round designs to over the arm styles, being formal and packed in style or informal and loose country style.
Bridesmaids designs
Designs for bridesmaids can alter depending on the age of the attendants, we are able to make beautiful bouquets and accessories for very tiny flower girls to adult bridesmaids. We can suggest teddies, baskets , wands, rings or tiny handtieds for smaller children, and a range of designs for older children and adult bridesmaids. These can be the same as the bride but vary in size and/or colour content, or can be a completely different style and design.
Rose bouquets
Nothing can be more romantic on your wedding day than a beautiful bouquet of roses. These can come in a variety of colour shades to compliment your dress fabric. Tightly packed rose bouquets are very popular, we can use a variety of sizes of roses, or all the same rose. Roses are suitable to be included with other flowers or in designs of all roses. The romantic theme can be embellished by the use of jewels, pearls, feathers or diamantes in the roses themselves or as part of the designs. Stems can be finished with suitable complimenting ribbon and again jewel details, for a very special finishing touch.
Lily bouquets
For a striking, and elegant bouquet, Calla lily's are the answer. Available in arrange of colours, from ivory white, gold, pink, peach to red burgundy. They are suitable for all round designs, with several tightly packed together, or just a few flowers with complimenting foliage.
Lilys are a very popular choice for wedding bouquets and Oriental (large headed), Asiatic lilies (smaller) and Longiflorum lilies can be used in various styles from traditional to modern and contemtary designs. In a variety of colours, they can compliment any colour scheme, for a really special bouquet.
Hair flowers
Flowers in hair can create a really special effect and look stunning to finish off the hairstyle of the bride, bridesmaids and flower girls. These can range in style from single wired flowers to clip into the hair, to designs made on combs, clips or alice bands of a single or several flowers. It is usual to choose flowers from out of the bouquets to compliment. Circlet headdresses are also available, and everything is made for the individual depending on there age and size.
Buttonholes and corsages
For the main wedding party, it is usual to have either identical or complimenting buttonholes and corsages. The grooms buttonhole is the most special of the designs and he may wish to have a single or double flower matching the brides bouquet and colour. It is usual for the bestman, dads and ushers to either have the same design or a variation maybe in colour from the groom.
For the mothers of the bride and groom it is also usual for them to wear something to compliment the bridal designs, again they are a little more special than the ordinary guests. Wrist, handbag and hat corsages are also popular.
