White is a beautiful color for bridal bouquets at any time of the year. During the winter months, it can be especially nice to add some seasonal accents to white wedding flowers to make them extra special. These are some ideas for the most gorgeous winter white bridal bouquets.
During the winter months, there will be a few limitations on the availability of flowers, but luckily there are numerous wedding favorites which are available. Classic roses are always in style, and you will have no shortage of them for a winter wedding. A tightly packed round nosegay of white roses is a timeless bouquet for a bride. The simple addition of a velvet ribbon to tie the stems together will make it wintery and elegant.
If you wish to add a bit of drama to a white rose bouquet, consider adding crystal accents. They are a fabulous addition when the bride is wearing sparkling crystal wedding jewelry. Ask your florist to add a crystal on a wire to the center of some of the roses like jewelry for your wedding flowers. The twinkle of the crystals will make your bouquet even more festive and it is marvelous for an evening wedding.
Asiatic lilies are also available for winter brides, and they are a great option when you want a showy bouquet. The large blooms really make a statement, and will also work beautifully in the coordinating ceremony arrangements and centerpieces. A big bouquet of white lilies is a statement unto itself, with minimal adornment needed. For a more traditional effect, arrange them in a round bouquet, or go for even more drama with a cascading bouquet of lilies.
Tulips are considered to be a harbinger of spring, but they become available through florists by the later part of the winter. They make a wonderful option for a bride who likes a steamlined bouquet. The graceful lines of Dutch tulips are pure elegance. To introduce a bit of winter, use an organza ribbon with a snowflake print as your bouquet wrap. Allow the ribbon to have long streamers so that the pattern is more visible.
There are lovely accents that can be added to almost any winter white bouquet. One of the prettiest is embossed velvet leaves. In a soft cream or white color, they make a feminine bouquet ruff with a vintage flair. Modern brides will adore the effect that white feathers can have on a bouquet. The feathers can be formed in a ring around the flowers, scattered throughout the blossoms, or even used in lieu of flowers. If you have never seen the way that feathers combine with flowers before, you are in for a big treat, as it is truly fabulous.
The most beautiful winter white flowers in combination with a special seasonal detail will make for an exquisite bouquet. From simple to showy, white bouquets are always gorgeous. Whichever accents you select, your white bridal bouquet will have just enough of a wintery accent to suit a winter wedding perfectly.
