Hey, Madeline from SpeechLess here. Before I was the booking director, I was a floral designer! I love wedding flowers. Your bouquet should represent all the best parts of who you are, and who you plan on being as you walk into the future. Here are a few of my favorite SpeechLess couple’s bouquets and the flowers used to create them.

Overflowing and vibrant, this bouquet has a little bit of everything. I love the fact that you can barely see anyone’s lower arms in this photo, it’s all about the drama! You can tell this bride was excited about her bouquet, which is a florist’s dream. I I like the way the thistle pops against the bridesmaids dresses - a very nice detail.

These brassy florals are a wonderful example of a monochromatic palette - one of my great loves. I see DIY couples buying roses super fresh and heading straight to the alter. That’s a mistake! In order to see all those beautiful layers we love so much, give your roses time to open open before the big day. This is such a classic yet contemporary look, and I can only expect the same aesthetic from the bride. See more of this wedding in this blog post.

The designer must have known the bridesmaids’ dresses would be red, and therefore used those crimson dahlias more like accents. Beautiful choice. I dig the pops of raspberry and the butter yellow and ochre hues create a soft, almost vintage color story.

Another monochromatic theme, this one is all jammy purples and magentas. I love this bouquet because it’s proof you don’t need roses to be romantic, or orange/red to feel like fall. It’s earthy, effortless and organic. This bride chose to have bright white dahlias and roses in her table top pieces, featuring them with variegated greenery which is a nice contrast.
