12 Major Wedding Bouquet Styles
There are all kinds of bouquet styles, and with a little imagination and the right determination, you can make almost anything your heart desires. We want to help narrow down your decision by giving you 12 different options of bouquet styles.
Option 1 – Pomander Bouquet
This bouquet is ball shaped and hangs down from a ribbon that can be worn around your wrist. This gives everyone a 36o view of your beautiful creation. There are several good varieties to use with this bouquet, such as Roses, Gypsophila, and even Peonies.
Option 2 – Nosegay Bouquet
This is a small bouquet with just a few stems of one type of bloom. It’s called a nosegay because of the way the heads join to form an ornament. Lily of the Valley is an excellent choice of bloom, although you can use any bloom of your choice, but the key is to make it simple.
Option 3 – Round Bouquet
This one is like the Pomander Bouquet in that it is round but is created with a handle instead and is usually made with one type of Flower or with similar color. Flowers commonly used are Roses, Ranunculus, and Tulips.
Option 4 – Posy Bouquet
This one is the classic style everyone usually thinks of when it comes to Bouquets. It is often round and the stems are usually cut to be about the same length with very minimal Foliage. White Roses are very glamorous with this style.
Option 5 – Asymmetrical Bouquet
This can be any shape you like if it looks the same on both sides. This one usually has a very good mix of foliage and Flowers.
Option 6 – Hand Tied Bouquet
This one is usually tied with a ribbon while all the stems of your florals are bound tightly together.
You can mix this bouquet with many different colors if you want as long as the color of the ribbon ties them all together.
Option 7 – Cascading Bouquet
This is a beautiful bouquet that takes the shape of a cascading waterfall. Orchids are a favorite bloom for this style.
Any Flower variety that appears to be hanging will fit very nicely with this option.
Option 8 – Crescent Bouquet
If you are having a garden style wedding, you may consider this style. This bouquet follows the shape of a crescent moon and is usually made from more organic Garden Roses with vines as foliage.
Option 9 – Composite Bouquet
This Bouquet is cool in that you take pieces of many flowers and turn them into one big flower. It takes some work to glue the petals together, but you will have a whimsical look that will be unforgettable.
Option 10 – Pageant Bouquet
They also call this one a Presentation Bouquet because of the way it is held in a cradle position instead of by the handle of the stems. This is a vintage style that looks good with Delphinium or Calla Lilies.
Option 11 – Hoop Bouquet
This one is a newer trend in recent times, and it is created by taking a circular base made of metal or wood and attaching blooms and foliage and carrying it in a freestyle manner.
Option 12 – Single Stem Flower Bouquet
This is one my favorite. It is simple, yet expressive. All you need is one stem of a large bloom with foliage. My favorite bloom for this is White Hydrangea, although you can use Peonies, Dahlias, and even Proteas.
