We’ve been to a few florist consultations. Each time I am transfixed by the bridal and bridal party bouquets. I like them best when they are simple and beautiful. Here are a few “unique bouquets” (courtesy of Martha Stewart Weddings) that offer options for brides looking for something that will stand out.
Pretty Purple: This one is so dainty and simple. If brides are looking for something a bit more grand, they can have their bridal party or the moms carry these little arrangements of violets and pansies.
Bright and Natural: This one is so cheerful and free-flowing. Definitely for brides looking for that pop of color.
Lovely Green: Green is not only my favorite color, it is also making a huge comeback as a popular wedding color. I’ve seen green floral arrangements incorporated into countless wedding palettes.
Modern and Unexpected: A bouquet of carnations. It reminds me of that scene in Sex and the City when Charlotte is describing her bad date and prefaces it with, “He brought me carnations!” But apparently, there are many chic things you can do with these flowers.
Where do you find bouquet inspiration?

I love that final picture- somehow carnations look so darn chic when they’re piled together like that! My inspiration also comes from Martha
another satc carnation moment- when berger brings carrie the gazillion pink carnations- they are her favorite flower 
a bunch together look fab, i must admit.
I absolutely love the pansy bouquet. I have always loved pansies and the idea the represent (I even have a pansy tatoo) so I am incorporating them into my bouquet.
@Heather: Yes! The pink carnations!! I forgot about that episode. It’s right before the one where he breaks up with her on a post it.
@AmandaP: I’ve always loved pansies, too!

About Me: I was born and raised in West Los Angeles, California. I spent eight years in the Northeast working and completing my education. Having split time between two sides of the country has given me a true appreciation for both coasts. It has also provided an overabundance of cross country drives, flights and long distance relationship fun/misery! I love my family, my doggy Emma, fabulous wine, Anthropologie, politics, reading, being outdoors, exploring new cities, and good movies! My fiance and I are complete opposites, but somehow we have managed to fall completely and hopelessly in love.
