Think beyond the bouquet—12 floral details for a fantastic flower theme wedding

Flowers are an essential part of most weddings. Whether flowers form the main theme or appear in a supporting role, they are a valuable addition to a wedding theme. These pretty little trinkets of nature have astounding beauty and versatility, and this factor makes them immensely appealing.

The bouquet is a statement piece in every bride’s ensemble. However, few brides think beyond these floral beauties and include floral details to enhance color and visual interest at their weddings. Nonetheless, we just love weddings that include floral elements, where these natural details appear in interesting and unexpected places. Not only are they pretty to look at, they instantly add a cheerful and buoyant note to the scenery. Here are some ideas for inspiration. Take a look and we are sure you will want to embrace a few (if not all!) to add more floral fun to your wedding day.

Fun floral invitations

Invitations are a great way to let everyone know that you fancy flowers. Floral details on an invitation are always classic. Few colors can uplift spirits and create a dreamy invitation. And the options are endless. There are hundreds of flexible options that allow you to customize your invitation to the last detail. If you plan to DIY your wedding invites, florals are an amazing concept for innovative and impressive ideas. You can choose to go with watercolor images, photographs or even floral silhouettes to embellish wedding invitations.

If you don’t want to do florals all the way and prefer subtle details, simply line the inside of your envelopes with floral prints. This detail will not go unnoticed, even while it will not compete with the main theme you choose. Take a look at this post on the Creative Market website for some brilliant ideas for DIY floral invitations. 

Flowery flower girl dress

Choose a stunning flower-detailed dress for your little flower girl, and she will literally own her title! Little girls always love flowers, and we are sure your flower girl will be no different. There are several options to consider. You can choose a dress with flower prints that match the colors at your wedding. Another option is to choose a floral lace dress that is elegant and classic. Finally, you can go all out by choosing a dress embellished with 3-dimensional flowers like roses. You can always find dresses that match the colors of your wedding scene, with any of these options. We are sure your flower girl will love your choice, no matter which of these three you finally decide upon.

Floral crown

Let a floral crown be your hair accessory, and it will speak loudly of your love for flowers. Also, nothing else screams summer, like fresh and fragrant flowers on a bride. Delicate flower buds and dainty daisies can be woven together to form a splendid accessory for formal themes. If your wedding is outdoors or less formal in style, consider wearing an oversize flower crown made from a rich selection of flowers to make a statement. If you do not desire such a dramatic look, there is always the option of weaving few flowers into your hair. Flowers can be used as natural embellishments for braided hairstyles.

Fragrant flowers like jasmines and rosebuds are beautiful and deliver a rich scent. You can also go for larger flowers like lilies or even local flora and fauna in your hairstyle to look the part. When choosing delicate flowers, remember that they are likely to wilt quickly. Either switch them out before they wear out or try to get hold of artificial flowers for the same effect. There are plenty of beautiful ideas on how to wear flowers in your hair in this post on the Bridal Guide. Check it out. 

Floral print wedding dress

Let your love for flowers free by choosing a wedding dress strewn with floral details. Floral lace is very popular among brides, with 3-dimensional motifs and appliques playing flower details to perfection. However, we suggest that you take it a step further.

Choose a wedding dress with ample floral work to highlight your theme. Watercolor prints, colorful appliques, or self-print fabrics can render a beautiful effect. Not only will you have a unique gown, but it will also be one that will forever remain etched in the memories of your onlookers. However, keep in mind that you may not easily come across bridal gowns with floral prints. With limited ready-made options, you may have to either go with what is available or custom-create your own dress. The other option is to shop in another dress aisles, like evening dresses or dresses for special occasions to find a suitable one.

This beauty features cheerful pink roses on white fabric. A pretty pink sash compliments the beautiful roses. Although the dress features floral prints, it fits the wedding dress expectation with its voluminous skirt and statement style elements.

Flower bag

Every bride needs an emergency kit for her wedding day. How about you pack all the essentials into a bag with flower-details? This will tie it to the theme, and will also be a beautiful addition to your ensemble. Choose a bag with floral details that match or complement the texture of your wedding dress. You can also find one that goes well with the rest of your theme colors.

Make sure the bag you choose has a reasonable size, so it can comfortably house all that you need to carry. This would be things like your hair and makeup essentials, tissues, smelling salts, handkerchief. These items will help you touch up your hair and makeup to stay fresh during the course of the day. It should also have emergency supplies to tackle any unexpected accidents. For more details on what to pack into your emergency kit, take a look at this previous post.

Floral bridesmaid dresses

If you think a floral bridal gown is too much, dress your bridesmaids in floral prints instead. Florals being a popular summer theme, it will be rather easy to find bridesmaid dresses that fit the description. Either mix and match or choose the same dress to achieve the desired effect. However, remember that it is easy to get carried away when you choose printed dresses for your bridesmaids. So, have at least two constant dress elements that will keep the look cohesive. Simple silhouettes usually look the best, when you want the prints to be noticed. We also suggest keeping the rest of the accessories simple and monochromatic, so the emphasis is on the print on the dresses.

Desserts with floral details

Sugar flowers are always a pleasant sight, and hence the perfect choice for decorating wedding desserts. Whether used all over the wedding cake or scattered around the perimeter, floral cakes are always welcoming. Fresh edible flowers are another interesting option that adds more visual interest to your dessert arrangement. Take a look at this previous post to find out how to decorate your wedding cake with flowers for a splendid effect. Finally, you can even consider cupcake cases adorned with flower details for the intended impact. These could be served at the table or set aside as favors for your guests to take home.

Choose subtle and natural colors to create a refreshing and natural arrangement. Simple but uncluttered details look best on desserts that match a floral theme. Take a look at the above image, for instance. The flawlessly sculpted cake is embellished with just gold foil and purple blooms. Despite the simplicity of the details, it looks spectacular.

Petal confetti

One of the timeless wedding traditions that continue to this day is to shower the newlyweds with confetti. Let petals replace paper confetti at your wedding. Pack them into delicate cones and hand it out to your guests to shower on you. This is the most romantic option available, and it is easy to arrange. Freeze-dried petals are available for the purpose. These look fresh and being bio-degradable, are a green choice for the festivities. So, whether these are showered on you while you are outdoors or inside the wedding hall, you needn’t worry about cleaning up. Further, it doesn’t stain when in contact with your white wedding gown. You can also use the same to scatter on your wedding tables and even along the aisle for a colorful and interesting effect.

Flower runner

Here is an interesting way to spice up your wedding tables with unexpected décor. While your guests will be expecting to see flowers as part of the décor and in the centerpieces, they aren’t likely to expect the entire table runner to have flowers. Pack flowers throughout the runner of a long table and the effect will be stunning. Use a neutral color tablecloth, so all the attention is focused on the colors of the flowers on it. Also keep the rest of the details simple, so there are no distractions and the flowers form the main focus of your tablescapes.

Flower garnishes for drinks

Add colorful, fresh edible flowers as accents to signature cocktails that will be served at your wedding. This detail is rather simple, but will certainly not go unnoticed. Your guests will in fact appreciate your attention to detail. Make sure that the flower color compliments or contrasts with the color of the beverage that is served. You can pair it with other elements in the garnish, such as berries to complete the effect. While choosing the garnish, ensure that the flowers are fresh. Keep the design simple, to just convey the theme without going overboard. Oversize blooms can also be placed in mason jars for a colorful touch.

Flower carpet

Arrange flowers or petals to form an attractive flower carpet that will steal everyone’s eye. Choose colors and designs that tie to the theme of your wedding, and set up the flower carpet at a location that will be easily visible. Although it can take a while to complete the details, the impact is worth it. Another benefit of this idea is that you can make the flower carpet as big or as small as you choose. It needn’t be formed of fresh flowers either. You can even add leftover petals from the rest of your décor or faux flowers to create an intricate design that is bound to impress.

Flower swing

An unusual, but very impressive way to incorporate flowers into your wedding day scene is with a flower swing. It is also a wonderful photo prop, that can be the focus of many beautiful wedding photos. Find a well-lit, noticeable spot at your wedding venue and arrange to have a swing decorated with flower arrangements up. After the couple has their turn, it can be enjoyed by the rest of the guests and we are sure it will be a lot of fun for everyone. If it isn’t practical to have a hanging swing at your venue, we think this idea of the circular swing on the Hallmark channel website is the perfect alternative.

We hope these ideas inspire you to add plenty of flower power to your big day. Do you have any more ideas, that we missed? If yes, we would love to hear them in the comments below.

What to do with your wedding dress after the wedding

Your wedding dress is one of the most important dresses you will ever wear in your life. This dress has more meaning than just a piece of fabric. It is also a symbol of happiness and unity. Your bridal dress is also a reflection of your personal taste, who you are as a person and perhaps even your love story. Apart from all these factors, your wedding dress is very expensive.

So, isn’t it quite sad that you will wear it just once in your life?

You may not find it easy to decide what to do with your dress after your wedding day. With so much money and emotion invested in making this choice, you may not think it apt to just leave it as such. So, we have rounded up all possible ideas on what you can do with your wedding dress once the big day has come and gone.

But before we proceed further, I must touch upon the importance of having your dress professionally cleaned and preserved. You should do this soon after the wedding day. The only exception for this is if you plan to trash your wedding dress.

Unless you have it cleaned immediately to remove dirt and stains, you risk the following:

  • The damage from stains that occur on the wedding day in it can become permanent. It will not be easy to restore the dress to its original condition once this happens.
  • Your dress will have picked up dirt, grime and sweat over the day. This can sink into the fabric and spoil its pristine look. It can also result in mildew and mold, if left untouched for long.
  • Creases and wrinkles affect your gown when you wear it or store it. You should have these removed promptly if it isn’t to set in permanently
  • The longer you leave your dress outside, the more susceptible it is to environmental conditions. The white color will yellow. Also, the dress is prone to new stains unless it is isolated and boxed.

For more information on the importance of professional cleaning and preservation of the wedding dress, visit this section on our website

Now that we have covered this aspect, let us take a look at the various options available to you after your wedding day is over.

Save it as an heirloom

Vintage wedding dress trends keep returning to the wedding scene. So, it is highly likely that your daughter, grand daughter or even great grand daughter will someday seek a dress like yours. Save your wedding dress in pristine condition, and it will come in handy in such a situation. Even if the dress isn’t used as such, it is possible that your future generations may re-purpose parts of the gown to make their own wedding dress. Whether it is worn in its original form or customized into something modern and chic at the time, it will once again find use.

The downside of saving your wedding dress for this purpose is that there is no guarantee your dress will be used. It depends on whether your children will even consider the option. If your daughter chooses to buy a new wedding dress, just like you did, saving it carefully would simply be a big waste.

Save it for your future vow renewal

Many couples decide to celebrate their marriage years after they are married, with a vow renewal. You may like to reuse your wedding dress on such a day. This is an apt occasion to relive your wedding day and deck yourself up as you did when you were a bride the first time. However, it isn’t necessary that your dress will fit you in the future. If you don’t change size significantly, you could wear your wedding dress once again with some alterations.

Nevertheless, you can even use parts of your wedding gown in a new dress for the day. All you need for this is a talented seamstress who can convert your dress into something else. Are you having trouble thinking up interesting ideas on how to achieve this transformation? Here are some stunning ideas on the Good Housekeeping website . There are more ideas here as well, on the Cosmopolitan to inspire you.

Sell your dress

Wedding dresses are expensive. If you never intend to use it again, it is sensible to sell the dress after your wedding. This will help you recoup a part of the money spent on it. There are many websites that allow you to list your dress online and sell it through them. Improve your chances of making the sale by having it professionally cleaned and restored to mint condition. Also, make sure you capture amazing photographs of the dress and add all relevant details to the listing.

Put up your dress for sale promptly after the wedding and improve your chances of making a sale. The longer you wait, the more likely its price will go down. For more advice on how to sell your dress online, visit this article on the Daily Life blog. 

You can also discuss this option of selling your dress with the boutique that you buy your dress from. If the shop has a dress rental service, it is likely that they will be ready to buy back the dress after your wedding at a reduced price. With this option, you needn’t search for another buyer, since the sale is guaranteed.

Trash the gown

If the money you spent on it doesn’t matter, trash your gown. This trend is supported by a relatively new style of wedding photography called the Fearless bride or rock the frock. Here the photographer will use a location that is entirely different from the typical wedding day scene. This could be a marsh, beach, field or outdoor location. The photographer aims to shoot photos that fit into the fashion photography genre. The pictures will look amazing, unique and one-of-a-kind. Your dress will become wet or dirty during the course of the session. So, it may be impossible to restore it to the original condition after the session. Because of this, it isn’t a good option if you wish to keep your dress for later use.

The photos are however worth the effort. In the hands of a talented photographer, these photos will be at a whole other level and much better than regular, wedding photos in every way. Take a look at this article to see what you can achieve with this idea. 

Donate your dress to a worthy cause

You can make sure that your dress lives on and is used by another bride when you donate it. There are many organizations that are ready to accept used wedding dresses. They may donate it to a bride who needs one for her wedding day. Or they may sell or auction it and use the proceeds for a worthy cause. Either way, you will contribute to a good cause. You may feel this is the right thing to do.

If you are unsure of whom to contact for this, take a look at this article on the Babble website.  Their suggestions include organizations that not only cater to needy brides, but also those that turns donated wedding dresses into beautiful burial grounds for infants who passed away. Take a look and we are sure you will find the choice that appeals to your ethics.

Transform it into a christening gown

If there is a baby on the way, or even if you intend to have children someday, you can save your gown and convert it into a christening dress. Just like your wedding, your child’s christening is a momentous occasion in your life. This is an amazing way to give your wedding dress a new purpose. With the help of a good seamstress, you can have your wedding dress transformed into a grand christening gown for your little bundle of joy.

There is another good aspect to this idea. Unlike when you hold on to your dress hoping your future daughter or daughter-in-law will choose the dress, you can take the uncertainty out of the equation in this case. After all, you have the freedom to make decisions for your baby. So, you can most definitely dress your child up in a converted wedding dress and make it part of a happy life occasion.

Use the fabric in customized lingerie

There are better chances of you using your wedding dress again this way. Companies like Impish Lee specialize in this type of work. Book a consultation with them to discuss your options for the garment so close to your heart. They will help you decide on a style that works best for you and suggest how to transform your beloved dress into the chosen design in the most efficient manner.

You can also use the extra fabric and embellishments like trim, lace or ribbons in something entirely unique and new. Once the blueprint is ready, their experts will complete the task of bringing the design to life.

Use the fabric in stunning throw cushions

Here is a great idea to keep your wedding dress within sight all the time. Throw pillows are a popular décor accessory. You can use them anywhere in the home, from the bedroom to the living room and even the patio. Your wedding dress has beautiful fabric that can be designed into throw pillows. The netting and inner layers can also be used as the filling.

The best part about this idea is that you can do this project yourself. It is relatively simple and you can easily complete it within a few days.

With the embellishments and ample fabric that goes into most wedding dresses, you will have plenty of material to get creative. Moreover, do it right and you could even make them family heirlooms to pass on to your children. Or gift them to your loved ones as a special gesture of thanks. You can also use the same idea to make beautiful pillows instead of cushions. If you do not have the time or aren’t confident in taking up the job yourself, get it done by a professional. We are certain you will love the results.

Make a pretty patchwork quilt

If you loved the feel and look of your wedding gown, keep it close to you forever by having it made into a patchwork quilt. This is a project where you will have to invest more time and effort. You should also have a good idea of what you are doing, if you have to succeed at it.

You can use your wedding dress immediately after the wedding, or keep it till later to have this done. You can even add your wedding photo, initials, invitation or other details into the quilt by having it printed onto the fabric. If your wedding dress was a ball gown or heavily layered style, you could get up to two quilts from it. With this you gain a valuable décor piece that has a sentimental value attached to it. Don’t you think the idea is wonderful?

If a quilt doesn’t catch your fancy, you can do something on a smaller scale. A tote bag or clutch are such options. You just have to give it some thought and the ideas will keep coming.

So, which of these options will you choose for your wedding dress?

Bridal pant suits, tiered skirts and other unique wedding dress styles we love

One of the best things about wedding fashion is that it is constantly evolving. Although the traditional layered wedding gown is still popular, bridal dress designers also impress us with unusual and unexpected trends for brides who want something different for their wedding day. The latest trends in wedding dresses are so unusually interesting that I wouldn’t be surprised if many of them would continue to be favorites season after season. Take the 3-D floral trend for instance. It made its appearance several years ago, and still continues to be a big hit. This charming design feature has been played with in different ways, extended to other motifs of nature and even tried out in colors and bigger proportions. And one thing is clear, the trend is here to stay.

There are many more design features that have been bookmarked by many brides and wedding fashion enthusiasts, long before they set their wedding dates. Let us explore this list of the unique and interesting wedding dress styles that are anything but traditional, but impressive enough to stay.

Bridal Pant Suits

With same-sex weddings growing common these days, bridal pant suits which rose to fame in 2014 continue to be favored by many couples. It is not only for lesbian brides though. There are many brides who choose them for their practicality and style factor. In fact, the chances are high for any bride who isn’t used to wearing dresses to choose a pant suit over a poufy wedding dress. And the modern designs are stylish and dressy enough for the bride to look special on her big day. One of the most popular choices is divided skirts, where the pant suit looks super-chic and very bridal. Well-tailored suits with elegant embellishments are equally attractive. We have also noticed the unusual pairing of the pant suit with the very feminine veil as the accessory of choice for a “tradition meets modern” bridal statement.

Two-in-one wedding dresses

We have lost track of the number of times we have been asked for dresses that allow a bride to easily transform from a traditional bride at the wedding ceremony to a stylish diva for the wedding reception. Two-in-one wedding dresses are our go-to solution in such situations. Dubbed the two-fer, these dresses feature an overlay skirt over a figure-fitting silhouette like the mermaid. The overlay skirt is often elaborate and richly layered, so it has the appearance of a rich ball gown. This is usually perfect for a traditional wedding ceremony and a princess-look for the bride. Post the wedding ceremony, all the bride has to do is take off the overlay skirt, and she has a new look for the reception. Much easier than changing into a whole new gown, don’t you think? Also, it is more economical than spending double on two gowns.

Tiered wedding skirts

Tiered wedding skirts are the happy balance between ball gowns and modern wedding dress styles. They have the drama of the ball gown, but are more sophisticated and look contemporary. Tiers can be seen mostly on A-line and fit and flare silhouettes like the mermaid or trumpet. They are beautiful in every fabric, although they are common in lace, satin and tulle. Tiered skirts are often paired with sweetheart and strapless necklines, that add to the dramatic effect. They may also be embellished with scalloped details at the edges or ruffles. Designers have also tried unusual embellishments like feathers and fringes in tiered wedding skirts. However, these choices are better suited for bold brides than conventional brides.

Muted shades of pink

Ever since blush became a widely sought-after bridesmaid dress color, muted shades of pink have stolen many a bride’s heart. Blush, in particular, is a favorite as it has a delicate, feminine charm. The color is soft so many brides can safely choose it in their bridal dresses and not deviate too far from traditional white. Another charming factor about this color is that it looks good on most complexions. It is also the perfect base color for lace details like floral icons and others to pop up against. Blush renders itself beautifully to both modern and vintage wedding dress designs. Whether it is in a ruffled wedding dress skirt or a modern minimalist silhouette, this dainty color as well as other subtle shades of pink are big hits in the bridal world. We do not see them disappearing from the scene anytime soon.

Plunging necklines

Definitely a choice for the bold and daring bride, plunging necklines are no longer the fashion statements of celebrities on the red carpet. Plunging V-necklines, daringly low scoops and deep keyhole designs are all hot trends on the bridal fashion scene. The widespread interest in the reinvention of these styles and number of collections featuring this detail simply tell us that more and more women are choosing to sport this bold style feature in their wedding dresses. To avert any potential disaster, all that is necessary is to add a sheer modesty piece to the neckline. Nevertheless, after the daringly low back details that were once a hit on the bridal scene, plunging necklines are a hot and happening thing. Plunging necklines are often featured with straps or sleeveless dresses that add a finishing touch to the glamorous detail.

Asymmetrical hemlines

Interesting elements like high-low wedding dress hemlines instantly add a touch of drama to the bridal look. This is a feature that has not just gained favor in the general fashion scene, but has influenced wedding fashion as well. High-low hemlines may be used in short or long gowns. It can also be added as an additional feature that appears over the regular wedding skirt. Asymmetrical hemlines usually involve more fabric to create the flowy effect, and are commonly paired with A-line dress styles, sheaths or fit and flare silhouettes for maximum impact. This is a great choice for casual-theme weddings where the bride wants a dress that isn’t too formal, but looks bridal enough all the same.

Off-the-shoulder neckline

A sexy dress feature that allows the bride to show off her well-toned shoulders and collar bones, the off-the-shoulder neckline looks beautiful on wedding gowns. The exposed shoulders and neckline balance out poufy wedding dress skirts. Off-the-shoulder necklines are very feminine, and may be paired with any dress silhouette. When paired with ball gown skirts and A-line dresses, it has a princess look, whereas it looks stylish and modern when paired with sheaths and fit and flare silhouettes. The neckline may either feature short sleeves or be combined with long full-sleeves for a vintage look. This neckline feature has been added to both lace gowns as well as satin and silk wedding dresses. It may also be paired with a draped bodice or an embellished one in different designs.

Illusion details on sleeves

Illusion necklines were and continue to be a bridal favorite. Although the sleeve length has varied from full-sleeves to strapless styles and those in between, there are always brides who want to look modest and sport wedding dresses with sleeves that cover their arms. Then, there are also those brides who want sleeves because their arms are too thick or too skinny to show-off. Illusion sleeve details are a happy middle ground between fully covered and very modest styles and the strapless style that reveals arms all the way from the shoulders to the fingers. Illusion sleeves are usually executed in lace, and have a delicate feminine appeal. This is a feature that is great for formal wedding styles and looks good on both slender and curvy brides. The details may range from intricate lace structures to widely dispersed and scattered details. It can also have embellishments or be simple.

Modern minimalist

Less is more for the modern minimalist bride. Non-fussy, uncluttered wedding gowns do not have to be simple and boring. Instead they can be stunning and splendid, despite the simplicity. Minimalist wedding dresses allow brides to draw focus to other aspects of their wedding trousseau, like their jewelry and accessories. Sleek and simple modern silhouettes usually focus on enhancing the natural beauty of the bride by drawing attention to her best assets in an obvious way. The most popular silhouettes are fit and flare and column, that either snugly fit the body curves or create the illusion of more curves than the lady possesses. Minimalist dresses may also feature selected embellishments that are vivid and stylish. This is a great pick for the bride who wants her personality to shine through the attire she sports on this important day in her life.

Defined waistlines

More brides today are determined to get in shape and look their best on their wedding days. And when they have great bodies to show off, it is only imperative that they draw attention to the smallest and most attractive of their assets, like a slim waistline. Wedding dresses with emphasized waistlines are just as popular as accessories like bows, sashes and waistbands that define the waistline clearly. This feature is common on not only poufy wedding dresses, but the demarcation of the waistline is even incorporated into fit and flare dresses where there usually is no clear waistline. One of the most interesting factors about defining the waistline specifically is that it gives the dress a youthful appearance. So, although dropped waistlines and empire styles are still sough after by many brides, dresses which highlight slender waists and even draw attention to it are favored by brides who are in good shape in time for their wedding.

Fantastic back details

This is one trend that we simply cannot get enough of. Every year, wedding designers outdo themselves by presenting us with wedding dresses featuring fantastic back details. The mysterious charm of an ornate back detail is unbeatable, and it is a must-have for every bride on her special day. From fabulous illusion detailing to tasteful lace cut-outs, embellished details, low-cut backs and keyhole designs, details in the back easily impress. It is also an interesting way of showing of your sexy side without worrying about a wardrobe disaster. To highlight back details, the bride must ideally choose a hairstyle that doesn’t cover up the essential details. It may also be hidden when you wear a veil. So, if you choose a dress with a fantastic back, make sure to take off the veil after the ceremony and give it the attention it deserves. Fantastic back details are also stand-out features in bridal and couple portraits. So make sure your photographer pays attention to this detail, if your dress features it.

Over the recent years, many trends have appeared and disappeared. While going with the trend is fun, remember that your wedding dress will be the focal point in your wedding album in years to come. It may perhaps even be passed down generations, and you always want to look classic and timeless in them. We believe that the trends we listed here today, are those that will help you look stylish. In short, these are the trends that are bound to be repeated time and again, and never go out of fashion.
