Floral arrangements should be a reflection of you. Carefully consider, which flowers and bouquet arrangement will best accent your gown and style. Choose a bouquet relevant to your size. When choosing your flowers be sure to have these questions answered:

• What is the style of your ceremony and reception?
• What is the color scheme you've decided upon?
• What time of year and day is the wedding?
• How much have you budgeted for flowers?

Once you have answered these questions, decide the extent of your floral needs. Your list might include some or all of the following:

• Bridal bouquet and a second one for tossing
• Floral headpiece for the bride and/or bridal party
• Attendants' bouquets
• Petals or bouquet for the flower girl
• Corsages for mothers of the bride and groom
• Boutonnieres for the groom, best man, ushers and fathers of the bride and groom
• Floral arrangements for the ceremony site and reception site
• Corsage for the bride's going-away dress
