Bridal bouquets should compliment the colouring of the bride’s outfit and accessories, including make-up. Also bear in mind any theme that the wedding is following. Wedding bouquets should be of lighter colored blooms if the event is to be a romantic one or brighter if the theme is a brighter occasion.
Remember to consult with your florist at the earliest opportunity to ensure that they have sufficient time to procure the required flowers and decorations. The more exotic wedding bouquets are going to be or the more detailed your requirements, the longer your florist will need.
