Black and red wedding bouquets

Contemporary brides who are interested in wearing a more provocative, dramatic and one of a kind wedding bouquet on the big day might want to have a look at these stunning black and red wedding bouquets shown in the pictures below.




The black and red theme is one of the most elegant, unconventional and yet classy remarkable themes that are now used in weddings. Contrary to what many might think, this color scheme is very popular, especially among modern brides or couples planning a more whimsical or dark themed wedding.

There is no other color combination that is so wild, extravagant, unusual and yet so attractive and tolerant to the eye. While the red color is there to stand for the passion, the romance, the fire and the sensuality, the black nuance is to tone down the red’s intensity or to bring more equilibrium, refinement, contrast and drama. No matter how weird or unsuitable for a wedding you may find the black color, you should remember that this somber nuance is used as the official color of a wedding in other cultures and civilizations. Of course, we can’t expect for this noncomformist theme to be on the taste of everybody or to convince all the couples, but those who are bold enough to assume something different, something more artistic and original will surely appreciate our suggestion.

On our website you can find a myriad of interesting, unique and elegant articles on diverse wedding flower themes that might help you in finding something that is more on your taste. The black and red theme works gorgeously for formal or simply fancy dramatic weddings booked for expensive royal restaurants, for cathedrals, castles or for other classy exquisite venues where these tow colors can look inviting, warm and flattering. We find this theme very sensual, despite the fact that black is not really considered or recognized as a color that works in weddings. There aren’t too many choices when it comes to finding natural real black wedding flowers, but you can use any other type of accessory or decorative item that can complete or enrich the look of your ravishing black and red wedding bouquet.

You can use black magic roses, plum sweet peas or anemones, plum calla lilies or dark plum dahlias or any other flower that comes in a dark shade close to black. If you are not satisfied with these examples of real black flowers, you can use artificial silk or paper made flowers that come in black colors. Other black accessories that you can use to replace the black flowers are: feathers, brooches, monograms, pearls and beadings, sparkling wires, origami flowers, satin ribbons, ropes or strings, rhinestones, swags, gemstones or crystals.
