Types of Wedding Bouquets



There will come a time in your planning where you will have to sit with your florist and discuss the type of wedding bouquet that you want. There are many types of bouquets for weddings with their own characteristics and personality. Here are some of the traditional shapes:

Nosegay:  A small, compact bouquet with 1-3 different types of flowers, with usually no greenery between the blooms. This type of bouquet is hand-tied with a ribbon and sometimes shows the natural stems of the flowers.



Round: A round bouquet is a traditional wedding bouquet of flowers, greenery, and fillers. For more contemporary looks, round bouquets are made with no fillers or greenery and focuses on one type of flower.

Cascade: A cascade bouquet is the most formal and traditional of all wedding bouquets. The bouquet is designed to appear as if the flowers are flowing down from the bride's hands. This arrangement is sophisticated and elegant, yet free-willed.

  1. Bridal bouquets are always gorgeous! Will have a pure white bouquet for my wedding. In fact, will do complete floral decorations and for that will be buying flowers in bulk from a popular Flower Delivery NYC service BloomThat. Hope they will do a good job.
