Bridal Bouquet - Oval /Tear Drops Design

Oval or sometimes known as 'Tear Drops' Bouquet is almost similar to the Cascade design but 'tear drop' bouquet is more compact and stiff, with a round top (group of blooms) and  soft-flowing foliage or sprays (small blooms) at the end/point. While the cascade design has a soft natural flow.
     

Still on Bridal Bouquets ~ Crescent Design with Lilies and Dendrobium Orchid

To create a bridal bouquet in the shape of quarter moon ( inverted C-shape) with  a soft arch, we need to select flowers with specific shape like orchids to form the arch (the C -curve)
the flowers at the center are more compact while the sides are placed so that they tapers and extend at both ends . It can be symmetrical or not but both sides gently flow downwards left and right. This style is usually carried by the bride below the waist to show off its trailing beauty.

A Traditional Bridal Style & Elegance ~ Nosegay/Posy/Tussy-Mussie

Generally a nosegay is a compact round-shaped bouquet - small for the flower girls, medium for the bridesmaid and and a large size for the bride herself. Popular blooms are roses, carnations, lilies, gerbera daisies and iris. Usually one type of flower is used and sometimes several or a combinations, eg. roses and stephanotis, lilies with baby breaths and hydrangea. Fillers and foliage borders make the nosegay more attractive.
There a few ways to decor a bridal nosegay - either the flowers stems left as it is or wrapped with ribbons all round , decorated with pearl pins and tied with a bow (french bows)
