Product Description
The wedding bouquet, like the center jewel in the engagement ring, is a focal point for the celebration. The bouquet’s colors, arrangement, and even fragrance, can express the mood and style of the ceremony, from the bridal gown and attendants’ attire to the decor of the reception room. How to decide? Each of the 300 bouquets displayed here comes with lavish close-up photos and careful descriptions of each detail, with recommendations for the kinds of dresses and ceremonies they best complement. Every color theme receives special treatment (with price range indicators), from whites, ivories and creams to yellows and oranges, reds and pinks, blues and purples, as well as variegated and original color schemes.

 Cute Little Book March 30, 2006
7 out of 8 found this review helpful
This is a cute little almost pocket sized book that has a lot of finished bouquets and most of the flowers used in each one. It also offers suggestions of which type of dress style would be good with which bouquet. It is organized by color sections. If you like the Wedding Flowers magazine, you will enjoy this convient sized book. It would be a great tool to show a bride looking for the perfect bouquet.
 Wedding Bouquets -- Over 300 Designs for every bride April 26, 2006
7 out of 7 found this review helpful
The photos are excellent but the specifics are poor. As a florist, I wanted to know the exact name of each rose color, and would have liked the botanical name of the flowers as well. Although the editorial review says there are price indicators, I have not found them & have read every page. This would have been helpful info, too. A side view of each bouquet would be informative also. The "language of flowers" info is repetitive and could have been listed in a table at the back of the book. And I've never had a bride pick her flowers based on their meaning anyway. But it's a good book to show brides for ideas.
The only book on wedding bouquets I needed! July 14, 2006
7 out of 7 found this review helpful
This little paperback had more stunning bridal bouquet ideas than all the other expensive hardbound books I bought put together. While I understand that florists may find the lack of instructions or specific flower names frustrating - it was simply perfect for a bride looking for designs from simply elegant to wildly creative. I would recommend it to all brides as well as to all florists looking for a nice compilation of exquisite bouquets.
Great Pictures July 7, 2006
6 out of 6 found this review helpful
If you are looking for pictures of bouquets this is the book for you. Watch out though. This book is a compilation of bouquets from a popular wedding magazine produced in the UK and they often use the true botanical name instead of the common flower names as we know them. No instruction but they do list the style of bouquet and flowers in them. Great to get ideas from.
Pretty but not exciting May 14, 2007

I bought this book when I was trying to plan my wedding, reading all the reviews I felt that it could be an excellent resource. On the good side, the pictures are really beautiful with close ups of each arrangement. It is also very well organized with each section focusing on the main colors in the bouquet. Unfortunately, I found the bouquets themselves to be completely unexciting, I got more ideas flipping through wedding magazines. There was not a single arrangment that I ended up showing my florist as an example.
