How Do I Carry My Bridal Bouquet On My Wedding Day?
<!– @page { margin: 0.79in } P { margin-bottom: 0.08in } –>
To say this is your big day in an understatement! All eyes will be on you. The photographs will last for years. You’ve dreamed of this moment since you were a little girl and planned for it probably for quite some time. The dress and shoes and veil are enough to think about. Everything has to be “just so”. But no one ever told you how to elegantly carry your flowers to make that “once in a lifetime” entrance down the aisle with poise and grace.
First, you are probably already aware that there are different kinds of bouquets. And that means that there are several ways in which to carry your bouquet depending on its share and size. Arm bouquets, pomanders, baskets, etc. are all items that a bride may carry. But we will focus on the most popular, the hand-held round bouquet. While we will suggest the proper way to hold your bouquet, you will always want to follow what gives you the most confidence and what feels most comfortable for you. The goal is for you to look natural and radiant in your gown and the flowers should compliment you, not overwhelm you or creating too much distraction from the most important person on the day….You!
The hand-held bouquet is most prevalent bouquet today for its casual elegance, its practicality, flexibly and ease for holding. It comes in various sizes from small to large and the handle is actually comprised of the flower stems wrapped in ribbon. The hand-held bouquet is mostly round in shape although it can slightly cascade or have different shapes. This bouquet should be carried with both hands in front of you with your elbows tucked close to you and arms resting at your hips. Even though the tendency may be to carry the bouquet near your chest or beneath your face, you will want to carry your bouquet at the waist instead so that all of the details of your gown are not hidden by the flowers. Perhaps you may want to practice walking and holding a bouquet prior to the wedding so you can become comfortable and hot have to think about it. You want to feel and look natural as you hold your bouquet.
Some brides choose the go with smaller bouquets and in lieu of corsages, some attendants and members of the wedding party like to have nosegays instead. Whether you are the bride or a member of the wedding party, your flowers should be carried at the waist, in front, with arms on the hip as though it was a large bouquet.
And don’t forget to tuck in that special vintage handkerchief in your bouquet or tie a ribbon about the handle which contains buttons, pins or remembrances of those special people in your life, past or present. And when the ceremony is over, if you are having a reception, you could place your bouquet on the cake table.
