I think certain flowers have a particular significance for each of us. Finding an inspiration point and blending that idea with your dress is just the beginning of working one or a few colors into an overall theme. Size and proportion are something else to consider. Some of us like the idea of carrying a huge burst of three to four different kinds of flowers in an arrangement while someone else goes for the simplicity of a small nosegay. Since flowers are a seasonal thing--tulips in spring, mums in the fall, your dress is probably going to reflect that too. Above and below are perfect examples of adding a little spring chic: bursts of baby's breath combined with lace and tulle . . .

Below: Pink and tangerine dahlias go with this blush dress of Chantilly lace and tulle . . .

What could be prettier for fall than a white eyelet dress and bouquet of wheat? I love the field theme here and how it all melds together . . .

LOVE that Christmas Bride. Gorgeous red against the muted tones...
I picked my HUGE statement Sunflower bouquet because my dress was so classic and "basic with a twist" that I wanted something that reflected me a bit more, and it echoed SUMMERRRRR!!! For sure in June!
simple and beautiful! love all of them
I love this advice! I think it's a great reminder to brides to consider these things when choosing the structure & flowers for their bridal bouquets. And who doesn't love looking at beautiful gowns & flowers?!
That first bouquet was just like my last brides. She wanted them to look like snowballs. :)
I really like the look of the tea-length gowns in this post.
Happy new year!
very beautiful! wishing you an amazing 2012!
nice blog. Happy new year to everyone from Italy!

Love the first dress if it was only a bit longer. Since we're discussing bouquets, I love the purple one, but wish it was all white or creme tones.
Thanks for sharing!
