Your wedding bouquet is the cherry on top in creating a look that is entirely you! Take a look below for some ideas to help you decide which floral bouquet style perfectly suits the ambiance of your wedding.
Classic/Traditional Wedding: Biedermeier Bouquet
This style of bouquet first became popular in Central Europe during the 1800s and was named after a German style of interior design. This bouquet is small and handheld, with flowers placed in a circular sequence. The Biedermeier bouquet possesses different layers and colors of florals, but with only one type of flower per layer to preserve unity. This lends an antique look and uniformed style and is perfect for brides who want something more formal and classic. Take inspiration from the photo above and choose a mixture between bold florals and delicate stems, avoiding a color palette that is too varied.
Simple Wedding: Nosegay Bouquet
For brides who aren’t about the spotlight or who want a small and intimate wedding, they need a small and intimate bouquet to match! The nosegay is the perfect size and level of complexity; each flower is uniform in size and there is a central theme to the entire bouquet that allows for concise simplicity. The size of this bouquet allows for some elaborate blooms placed in an understated package. Bonus: This bouquet is also highly popular for the bridal party.
Bohemian/Rustic Wedding: Hand-tied Bouquet
Hand-tied bouquets are carefully crafted to have a natural and more casual look. This natural yet eye catching style of bouquet is perfect for bohemian brides or those who prefer a rustic look for their wedding, as it allows for large sprays of greenery and varying floral colors and sizes. Keep the size of the bouquet medium to large, as a small bouquet in this style may not carry the impact or properly show the potential of the florals used in this particular style.

Glamorous Wedding: Pageant Bouquet and Cascade Bouquet
For the glamorous bride, the pageant or the cascade bouquet is the perfect touch to your bridal look. These style of bouquets lend an air of drama in their structure. The pageant style allows for the main focus to be you and your gown. Large and elaborate flowers are perfect for this style as they can trail down along your dress, adding beautiful movement and shape. The cascade bouquet creates a shower of flowers to draw the eye, ensuring that you are the center of attention on your wedding day. To transform this look for a bohemian wedding, make sure to add a plentiful amount of sprawling greenery. Otherwise, keep the greenery to a minimum and focus on full flowers.

Trendy Wedding: Crescent Bouquet
This style of bouquet (seen above and in the picture below the title) has been all the rage for the past 2 years in weddings due to its sprawling placement of widely varied flowers. This bouquet looks stunning in photos and can fit perfectly with plenty of different bridal styles. Tie with a long ribbon to balance out the width of the floral arrangement of the bouquet.
Unique Wedding: Flower Ring
Sometimes a wedding bouquet isn’t your thing! If that’s the case, why not look into an alternative like a flower ring? Understated and whimsical, yet outstanding and quirky, flower rings are a great way to stand out from the crowd.
Sumptuous Wedding: Brooch Bouquet
This glittering bouquet is perfect for those who personally subscribe to the idea of ‘the more the merrier’. The metallic look of this type of bouquet is perfectly suited to fall and winter weddings and is formed in a round shape due to structure and form. Adding a mixed variety of brooches keeps the look fresh, and the style of this bouquet goes well with both more streamlined gowns and true ballgowns.
