Introduction

Flowers play a crucial role in setting the tone for your wedding day. From the stunning bridal bouquet flowers to the elegant centerpieces, each floral arrangement adds a touch of beauty and romance. At Red Bud Florals, we specialize in creating breathtaking floral designs tailored to your vision. To help you plan, we’ve put together the ultimate wedding flower checklist to ensure you have every bloom covered for your big day.

Bridal Bouquets

Choosing the Perfect Bridal Bouquet

Your bridal bouquet flowers should complement your dress, theme, and personal style. Consider different bridal bouquet sizes based on your preference:

  • Small & Compact: Perfect for minimalist or modern weddings
  • Classic or bohemian: A classic bouquet could be loosely round or garden inspired with lots of texture. We design your bouquet to match your personality. We add embellishments that compliment the design and fabric of your gown.
  • Lush and fabulous: Ideal for dramatic and luxurious aesthetics, this bouquet aims to impress!

Bridesmaid Bouquets

Your bridesmaids' bouquets should complement the bridal bouquet while being slightly smaller. Many brides opt for a round bridesmaids  design, featuring simpler blooms for a cohesive and elegant look.

Groom and groomsmen

Red Bud Florals creates lapel boutonnieres or pocket boutonnieres that will match the bridal and bridesmaids bouquets.

Ceremony Flowers

Must-Have Floral Arrangements

  • Altar Arrangements: Large floral displays that frame the ceremony space can be in the form of an arch, a split arch, or urn designs on pedestals
  • Aisle Decor: Petals, garlands, aisle arrangements or floral bouquets lining the aisle will bring magic to your ceremony
  • Archway, Mandap or Chuppah Flowers: Adds a dreamy backdrop for your vows based on your culture
  • Flower Girl flower crowns and a basket of petals: Add a delicate and personal touch as she walks down the aisle
