Four Bridal Bouquet Shapes
The round, hand-tied bouquet is the most popular flower arrangement, but did you know that there are other bridal bouquet shapes that are just as lovely? Add a touch of whimsy and romance to your floral arm candy with these pretty bridal bouquet shapes.
Instead of creating an unnatural round shape with a bouquet of flowers, this asymmetric design provides a more organic and natural-looking arrangement. To achieve this look, simply ask your florist to make flowers and foliage more plentiful on one side.
Like the asymmetric bouquet, the crescent moon shape creates a more fluid arrangement. The only difference is that instead of placing more flowers on one side, both sides from the center have a flower arc that creates a crescent moon shape. This flower arrangement is perfect for colorful bouquets with different kinds of blossoms.
The waterfall bouquet is absolutely stunning – a mass of bountiful blooms sit on top of the bouquet and slowly taper down to form a teardrop shape. Consider a waterfall bouquet if you’re wearing simple gown or an heavily-beaded bust. If the details of your gown are concentrated on the skirt, however, it’s best to choose a different design; it would be a shame if the bouquet hid the lovely embellishments on your dress! Petite brides may also look overwhelmed by the dramatic cascade of foliage.
The flat or presentation bouquet is made up of long-stemmed flowers nestled in the crook of your arm. It might be a little awkward to carry at first, but this bouquet would look stunning against a simple chiffon column dress or a short wedding dress.
