The Hot Styles For 2012 Bridal Bouquets
If you are a 2012 bride, you need to find out the latest wedding trends and ideas. There are some lovely things that will be in style for bridal bouquets to carry down the aisle. You will find many wonderful ideas among these new 2012 bouquet trends for brides.
Feminine bouquets will be one of the most important design trends for 2012. The new style of romantic bouquets are a wonderful match for the current trends in bridal fashion. Think cabbage roses, peonies, sweet peas, and freesia. Play up the romantic flavor of these flowers by using a gentle color palette. Shades of white, peach, and ballet pink will be edging out bold nosegays of hot pink and orange. These additions can make a beautiful bouquet a breathtaking one. Wrap a strand of pearls around the handle of the bouquet to complement your pearl bridal jewelry. Or pin a sparkly vintage brooch to a velvet ribbon bouquet wrap. Very soft plumage around the outside of the blossoms will add a touch of vintage romance.
Expect to see more brides opting to include non-floral natural accents into their bouquets. We have seen this trend done with succulents in recent years, and it will be growing for 2012 weddings. Give traditional wedding flowers new life by accenting them with bear grass. Greenery like ferns or lamb’s ear can be used to great effect. Even edible elements like fruits and vegetables will be used to make unique bouquets. You can create a unique rustic bouquet by adding artichokes. It would be wonderful to add some fragrant herbs to your bouquet, especially if you have any Scandinavian heritage. Keep the bouquet wrap understated when the floral arrangement is so unique.
Natural colors are also going to be popular for 2012 wedding bouquets. Again, the trend is moving away somewhat from the really bold bouquets that have been popular the last few seasons. It is easy to mix and match natural earth shades. Gentle hues such as mauve can be added for an accent. What beautiful hues to pair with the pale pink wedding dresses which are so trendy for 2012. Add a whimsical feather fascinator and unique bridal jewelry to create a completely original look.
More dainty nosegays and posies will be edging out huge over the top bouquets. A tight bouquet of romantic white flowers is pretty and fresh. You can spice up a classic single color bouquet with a pop of 1 or 2 boldly colored blossoms. You could carry a bouquet of white garden roses with one stem of purple lisianthus for a unique accent. It would be stunning to have an arrangement of ivory cabbage roses with a few blush ones sprinkled in. By adding an element of surprise to your bouquet, you can truly express your own personal style.
