Hey lovely couples! Georgia here from Delilah & Bloom – I know choosing the perfect bouquet can feel tricky, so I’ve put together a friendly guide to help you find the style that truly speaks to you.
1. 🌿 Cascade Bouquet – Romantic & Refined
This one’s for the grand moment-makers. Think of a waterfall of blooms tumbling down in a flowing, teardrop shape – utterly dramatic and utterly elegant. It’s ideal for sweeping gowns, church aisles, or marquee weddings. Using orchids, calla lilies, roses and greenery to create that “wow” effect.
2. 🌼 Posy Bouquet – Sweet & Playful
Compact, easy to carry, and simply charming – the posy bouquet is perfect for brides who want something pretty and fuss-free. It’s also a lovely choice for bridesmaids or flower girls. Wrapped with trailed ribbons and delicate blooms like ranunculus for that softly romantic finish.
3. 🌸 Round Bouquet – Classic & Polished
If symmetry and tradition are your style, this structured dome of blooms is your best friend. Full, elegant, and timeless – it suits both formal venues and refined bridal gowns. Roses, hydrangeas or dahlias look stunning here, giving strong, confident volume.
4. 🌷 Hand‑Tied Bouquet – Relaxed & Natural
This is one of my personal favourites – the joy of fresh‑picked blooms wrapped loosely with ribbon or twine. It delivers that effortless “just gathered” vibe and fits perfectly with outdoor, rustic or whimsical events. Garden roses, eucalyptus, wildflowers – this is where texture and personality shine.
5. 🌻 Nosegay Bouquet – Chic & Charming
Tidy, petite, and packed with charm. It usually features one type of flower or palette, making it a lovely accompaniment to your bridal bouquet or ideal for your bridal party’s bouquets. It’s minimal yet meaningful.
6. 🍃 Pageant (Arm‑Carry) Bouquet – Sleek & Statement‑Making
Want something different? The horizontal, arm‑carry bouquet is bold and fashion‑forward. Sleek blooms like calla lilies or orchids create a gorgeous modern silhouette – perfect for brides who want to put a stylish twist on tradition.
💭 So... Which One Feels Like You?
Each bouquet tells part of your story – your style, your wedding day vibe, the feel you want to create. Bring this guide to your consultation, chat about your dress, venue, mood-board – we’ll weave it all together to bring your floral vision to life.
