{Inspiration} How **FUNKY** can your Wedding Bouquet Get

Shaadi-Esque is feeling very floral today, we are getting a little bored of seeing the same Floral Bouquet's all the time, although who's not to say that actually some classic looks really suit some brides and more importantly their dresses, but we are venturing out to a wider more creative styling.

Knowing the right bouquet to purchase can be somewhat of a nightmare. With so many to choose from, so many different flowers, materials, designs, lengths etc.. I have selected some of my favourite most chic and quirky bridal bouquets I could get my hands on. These surpass the standard flower bouquets that you can purchase, into a realm of imagination and fabulosity!

Choosing your bouquet isn't easy, visiting the florist and flicking through their portfolio could be a nightmare. You are better off having some magazine clippings of what you would like - rather than confusing yourself and your florist.

Helpful Hints on choosing your Bouquet:

♥ If opting for Lilies, ensure you remove the pollen, as that orange colour stain on a wedding dress before the cake cutting ceremony can be utterly catastrophic.

♥ Don't go for flowers that are the exact same colour as your wedding dress, and if you do, try two or three different shades, otherwise your bouquet will blend obscurely with your dress and go unnoticeable.

♥ I love the weird and wonderful bouquet's below, they are crafty, easy to make and look so Chic .. yet contemporary, that is if you get the combination right.

♥ Don't be afraid to be different, go crazy, add a little something to make your bouquet pop, whether its a material or plastic butterfly, some foliage, a totally crazy colour etc.

If you are making your own then here is how to Decorat the stems:

1♥ Slice any thorns off, blood dripping on your bridal gown is the worst possible combination.

2♥ Tie a rubber band or string to keep the bouquet in place just as you want it.

3♥ Cover the stems with any material, cloth, rope, tape, ribbon etc.

4♥ For extra Jazz, add whatever décor options you want from Swarovski Crystals, more ribbon, tie a nice bow or sash.

Oh it couldn't be any easier to be honest! - That is after you have the idea, design and find all the materials - otherwise it is a piece of cake!

There are some brilliant images in this post, and I couldn't possibly choose my favourite, because they are all so cool and unique that they just can't be compared!

Keeping you inspired!
