Let your florist recommend different styles and shapes that will work for you and your dress. For example, if your dress has lots of beading and lace, you may want to consider a more modest bouquet so it won�t compete with the details of the dress. Or if your dress is simple and elegant you may want to consider a cascading bouquet, which is a trend that is returning but in a more modern way.

This is also a difficult process that can take time. Never make the mistake of letting someone else pick out your flowers. Everyone is attracted to different colors, textures and styles, so it is important that you pick what you like and not what others like, as you know what will make your day special
