Retro inspired wedding bouquets

In case your wedding is going to have a more vintage appearance and character, then you can consider wearing a retro inspired wedding bouquet that can compliment the whole theme and still make you look totally original and one of a kind.




There are many possibilities in designing and creative fabulous antique old fashion wedding bouquets, but each bride must follow a certain pattern or her own imagination path, inspirational mood, creativity sense, aesthetic sense, artistry sense and vision. You can find ways to compose a natural flower retro inspired wedding bouquet, but more options are in silk wedding bouquets or in artificial wedding bouquets in general.

But let’s see first what you can do with a bunch of real flowers and how you can upgrade them in order to look vintagely modern. First of all, you can choose from roses, peonies, chrysanthemums, freesias, anemones, tulips, lavender, gerbera daises, dahlias, stephanotis, orchids, gladiolas, hibiscus, magnolias, asters, baby’s breath, hydrangeas, lilies of the valley, hyacinths, lilacs, ranunculus, gardenias, dried flowers or sunflowers.

Secondly, you must pick them in the most spectacular colors that can suit the retro theme, such as: chocolate browns, hot pinks, magentas, bright yellows, lime greens, light violets, scarlet reds, blacks, deep dark purples, lavenders, tomato reds, bright blue, navy blue, coffee brown or maroon, peat, champagne, cream, beige, silver, vintage mater orange or gold.

After you have these things settle, you can compose the bouquet following a simple nosegay round shape, or a posy practical round style. You can perhaps opt for a pomander or a kissing ball chic wedding bouquet style or for a natural touch loose hand tied design.

Afterwards you can start dressing up the bouquet in order to make it look more retro. Use feathers, lace appliqués, pearls and beadings, origami flowers, rhinestones, ribbons and bows, polka dot wraps, ropes, crystals, sparkling wires, swags, sequins or gems and beautify the bouquet just the way you wish in order to make its appearance more vintage, glamorous, chic and dainty.

If you are not pleased with the choices that you have in natural real flower retro inspired wedding bouquets, you can re-orientate towards silk wedding bouquet or to craft alternative wedding bouquets made from brooches, origami or paper made flowers, crochet flowers, ribbons, bows, sparkling wires and crystals, buttons, feathers, sequins, diamonds or rhinestones. In general, these alternative wedding bouquets are specially made to suit weddings like yours: retro, Victorian, vintage or antique inspired overall.

So you don’t have to add anything to a custom made retro inspired craft wedding bouquet, perhaps monograms with your initials to make it a more personal wedding piece or bridal accessory. The good news is that you get to keep the artificial wedding bouquet in one piece, safe during the wedding and after the wedding, as a special original and authentic wedding souvenir.
