15 stunning single flower variety bridal bouquets
We love a wild and wonderful bridal bouquet overflowing with assorted flowers and foliage, but there's something very elegant and refined about a single variety bouquet too. Showcasing your favourite flower in all its glory with no distraction makes for a very chic bouquet, so today we're showing an edit of our favourite single flower bouquets to inspire you. Whatever aesthetic you want to create, where its full and fluffy, light and ethereal, or modern and sculptural, you're sure to find a style you love.
Blousy round flowers with woody stems like garden roses, hydrangeas and peonies lend themselves beautifully to single variety bouquets, while delicate varieties like sweetpeas, daisies and lily of the valley look stunning providing they are not out of water for too long. Without the support of other flowers and foliage, flowers with bendy stems (think tulips and ranunculus) may need to be wired internally, which a good florist will be able to advise you on.
Orchids in their many varieties (like vanda, phalaenopsis, cymbidium and dendrobium) make striking bouquets and their unique shape and profile makes them most suited to being styled alone. Most orchids lend themselves to shower or teardrop bouquet shape, while Oncidium, also known as the dancing-lady orchid (the bright yellow bouquet below), can create a stunning wild spray effect.
