Ten Bright Ideas


The Perfect flowers can set the tone by filling the room with bursts of colour and a glorious scent. While the main focus is usually placed on the bouquet there are plenty of other ways to incorporate your favourite blooms.

1. Floral Detail
Flowers don't have to be reserved for your bouquet. A floral motif at your waist or shoulder is a fresh touch.

2. Floral Garlands/Wreaths
Ideal for garden and country weddings. They look amazing in your hair, or adorn a door or chair with a circlet of blooms.

3. Colourful Bouquets
Gone are the days of simple, mono-tonal bouquets; modern blooms for their bouquet and reception. Use a variety of flowers for maximum effect and unusual additions like berries and vines to create something unique and memorable.

4. Arbors and Archways
Exchange vows under a romantic archway adorned with flowers. Soften the look even further by choosing full multi-petal blooms and lush greenery.

Keep your hands free for quaffing Champagne and giving big bridal hugs by wearing your blooms on your wrist. So pretty!
