How to Choose the Perfect Bridal Bouquet

Knowing how to choose the perfect bridal bouquet can make all the difference in styling your wedding day look. It can be daunting to decide on the ideal bouquet that will complement your wedding dress. But don’t worry, we’ve got you covered with some helpful tips from a Cincinnati wedding florist to make your decision a little easier. Consider Your Dress Style When it comes to selecting the perfect bouquet, your dress style is a crucial factor. If you have a ball gown wedding dress, a larger bouquet with a cascading shape will be a great choice. For a more relaxed dress style, a smaller and simpler bouquet will work better. Think About Your Wedding Theme Your wedding theme should also be a consideration in your bouquet choice. If you have a rustic wedding theme, a bouquet with natural elements such as wildflowers and greenery will complement your theme. If you have a more classic or formal wedding theme, a bouquet with roses or peonies will give off an elegant vibe.

If you have a wedding design with bold colors or patterns, a bouquet with complementary colors will balance out your look. Think About Your Personal Style Your personal style is another crucial factor when choosing your bouquet. If you’re a romantic at heart, a bouquet with roses and peonies will fit your style. If you prefer a more modern look, a bouquet with a sleek and structured design will work best.

Tall Wedding Centerpieces and Reception Design in Cincinnati, Ohio. Part 1

Let’s talk reception design!  In this blog we’ll look at the elements you’ll need to host a spectacular wedding reception that is unique to your style and dazzles your wedding guests. Thru our real wedding images, we hope to inspire you with some of the best reception table designs we have crafted for our Floral V Designs clients. Tall centerpieces are an eye-catching way to complement your venue and create a “WOWIE” moment for you and your guests. These lush designs are essential for setting the tone of your reception, adding drama, and displaying your signature style. A tall centerpiece’s style and elements can vary greatly depending on your vision, goals, and venue. Fortunately, we have fantastic design team that loves creating stunning elevated centerpieces for each couple’s dream wedding. Nothing could be more spectacular! Our first example, is from a reception at Green Acres Foundation in Cincinnati, Ohio.  It shows how powerfully tall centerpieces command a room, or in this case a tent. As your guests enter the tent, their gaze is drawn around with the help of these magnificent fixtures. To add visual weight to the layout, we counterbalance the centerpiece’s height with Southern Smilax garlands draped from the ceiling and the parameter of the tent. The result is stunning!

The Floral V Designs team developed distinct floral arrangements for all the guest tables.  Beautiful, tall, garden-inspired centerpieces filled with light blue and white hydrangeas, champagne and blush roses adorned the 40 inch glass Bespoke vases that sat atop the periwinkle satin linens.
