What Kind of Bouquet ARE You?

When initially meeting with my brides the most important thing on all of their minds is flowers, and the arrangement of them. The bridal bouquet is by far one of the most important elements and every bride has her own opinion. Below is a guide to different bridal bouquet styles - what kind of bouquet are you?

Hand-Tied Bouquet: this bouquet is quickly growing as a favorite. It is very natural and shows off the flower stems.

Cascade Bouquet: this bouquet is designed to spill gracefully over the bride's hands as it flows downward. It appeared in the early 20th century, becoming extremely popular during WWII (1920s - 30s).

Nosegay Bouquet: this is a tightly round (almost ball-like) bouquet that is hosted in a tussie-mussie (a small victorian cone-shaped flower holder). This bouquet has very clean lines.

Presentation Bouquet: or an arm sheaf bouquet. This bouquet is made of long stemmed flowers and foliages that the bride carries cradled in her arm. This is a unique alternative.
