The Posy or Clutch Bouquet
The posy bouquet is round and small and can easily be held in one hand. The natural stems are wrapped in a beautiful satin ribbon and can be embellished with pearl pins and beads and other accessories. The clutch type of bouquet consists of a simple gathering of flowers, bound and tied with ribbon with stems left exposed. This is a beautiful choice for an outdoor wedding with that just picked from the garden look. This style is a favorite with our brides.
The Arm Sheaf Bouquet
They are long stemmed flowers and foliages that the bride carries cradled in her arm, also known as a presentation bouquet. It is a lovely alternative to more traditional styles of bouquets. It can be simple or elaborate.
The Crescent Bouquet
The crescent bouquet appears in the shape of a quarter moon, a soft arch, using distinguished flowers with definite shapes, often orchids, wired together to form a slender handle that you can hold in one hand. This style is perfect for sophisticated and contemporary weddings.
Cascading Bouquet
A cascading bouquet, which is the most formal and most traditional of bouquets, is designed to spill gracefully over the bride's hands as it flows downward for a sophisticated and stylized look, almost any flower can be used in this style.
The modern smaller version is called the teardrop bouquet or trail bouquet.
The Pomander Bouquet or Kissing Ball
The pomander bouquet is also known as a kissing ball. A pomander is a ball of flowers suspended from a loop of decorative ribbon.
Adult attendants can carry pomanders, but young attendants such as flower girls and junior bridesmaids most often carry them.
