7. There are so many options for wrapping and embellishing your bouquet. Satin ribbon or rusticlook wraps like burlap or twine; attaching mini photo frames or lockets for remembering loved ones; or something sentimental, old or borrowed tucked into the wrap that only you know is there. Fresh idea... Tie your wedding rings to your bouquet and carry them down the aisle to symbolise walking toward your future together. Your bridesmaids then untie and present the rings at the appropriate time during the ceremony. “Choose flowers that will look stunning when held in front of your wedding dress, considering style, fabric and shape. For example, larger blooms would work beautifully in front of an elaborate dress, and simple satin lends itself to a bouquet with lots of texture, for contrast.” Nicole Cooper Stem Design 8.
