A wedding bouquet is one of the most important accessories for any bride. It is he who complements selected image, draws attention to the tender girl’s hands, emphasizes the individuality of the newlywed and celebration decoration. Modern wedding floristry provides brides with variations of bouquets consisting of flowers, berries, feathers, fabric, satin ribbons and rhinestones. Today, the bride's bouquet is a real work of art and, without any doubt, one of the most important elements of wedding fashion. Therefore, the annual variability of trends according to which this accessory is selected is quite understandable.

Of course, the choice of flowers depends only on your taste, the style of the event and the color scheme of the celebration. However, many brides decide to turn to folk signs, so as not to frighten off good luck at the wedding. As for the deep meaning of individual flowers, we can say that our ancestors have long considered pansies a symbol of fun and joy, aster - grace, gardenia - beauty, and carnations - charm.

Gladiolus was revered as a symbol of courage, hydrangea - coldness, iris - hope, camellia - perfection, bell - humility, lily - purity, poppy - pleasure, orchid - sophistication, peony - happiness, sunflower - pride, rose - love, violet - modesty, and freesia - trust. Based on the meaning of flowers, you can put together a bouquet that symbolizes the most important concept in your future married life.

The fashion of 2017 was also reflected in the segment of wedding bouquets - two opposing trends were recognized as dominant. On the one hand, minimalism, naturalness, free forms and soft tones rule the show, and on the other hand, pretentiousness and emphasized fantasy, far from the usual standards and forms, are at the peak of the trend.

Unusual inserts contrasting with flowers and greenery are in fashion. Tenderness and softness are more in trend than ever, so florists are in no hurry to abandon their favorite round-shaped flowers. At the peak of popularity are waterfall bouquets, in which a cascade of plants consists entirely of climbing greenery. Bouquets with an accent of one or more flowers, which are much larger than the other components of the bouquet, have burst into the world of wedding fashion. Preference should be given to poppy, anemone, peony or dahlia. One of the newest trends of 2017 was bouquets made exclusively of green flowers and twigs. Soft tones of pistachio, dark bottle shade and sea green are in favor.
