There aren’t many days in a girl’s life when she can have so few things in her hands: her dashing sweetheart’s hand, the skirt of a white gown, and a bouquet of flowers. Flowers evoke the fresh, new and living excitement of a wedding. Here are some of the latest trends in wedding flowers.

Shades of Color. From the lightest blush carnation to the deepest pink rose, or from a faint cream gerbera daisy to bright yellow roses. Different shades within the bouquet are hot.

Contrast. Mix your favorite flower in white with the same variety in color. Elegant and beautiful.

Go Green. This concept is taking hold in every corner of wedding plans, even bridal bouquets. This shows up as various types of grasses in contrast to the flowers of the bouquet.

Ribbon Ties. These can coordinate or contrast with the flower colors. They add interest to the bouquet.

Ask for Advice. Ask your florist how to get the look you want with your budget. To save money, order flowers that are in season or in less demand.
