The Wedding Party

The Bride's Bouquet
Your bouquet will be one of your most important accessories, it will be admired throughout all of your photos. It should be chosen with care, so that it complements your gown and the wedding theme. Most importantly it should reflect your personality. Bliss can create a bouquet to suit you – whether it be romantic, modern, wild, wistful, traditional, fun or daringly different.

Bridesmaids' Bouquets
What your bridesmaids carry is totally up to you. The bouquets can be identical, similar or totally different. Traditionally they are similar to the bride's, slightly smaller and the colours different.

Buttonholes
Buttonholes are usually worn by the groom, the best man and groomsman. It is also traditional for the fathers and grandfathers to wear a buttonhole. The groom usually wears a single flower to match the bride's bouquet and the best man and the fathers wear a single flower to match the bridesmaids' bouquets. You may wish to add a modern or personal touch to the buttonholes by adding something unusual such as tortured willow, dodder vine, berries or gold leaves.

Corsages
Corsages are usually worn by the mothers and grandmothers. As with all your wedding flowers what flowers are used is totally up to you. You can have the corsages matching the wedding flowers, complementing the wearers clothing or you could have your mother's favourite flower.
