Every girl wants everything to be perfect at her wedding. The combination of colors of the bride's bouquet and wedding dress is no exception. The bouquet is with the hero of the occasion throughout the entire event, so choosing flowers to match is not a whim, but really a necessity .
It would seem, what is the problem and why does this cause difficulties? The fact is that if earlier ladies preferred a snow-white outfit, now complex tones are used in the dress. In other words, choosing a bride’s bouquet to match a beige wedding dress or, for example, a champagne-colored outfit is not so easy.
Floral wedding dress styles
Before the wedding, many girls are concerned about which model of dress with flowers to choose, how to decorate the bride’s dress with flowers, and what accessories can be selected for a floral wedding dress?
A floral wedding dress has become a fashion hit in 2017 among wedding dresses. Floral motifs in wedding dresses can be seen at the shows of popular designers.
Roses, daisies, cornflowers on a wedding dress will only emphasize the sweet charm of the bride. However, a floral outfit is only suitable for a summer wedding.
If you think that a floral dress is too bright for a bride, then you can choose a white wedding dress decorated with flower buds. This outfit will allow you to combine the classics of a wedding dress with fashionable decor, thereby creating a clean, gentle image of the newlywed.
Moreover, it is not at all necessary that the flowers on the dress be of delicate shades; bright buds on a white dress look quite impressive.
Decorating a wedding dress with flowers allows the bride to look original and impressive. The most unusual floral wedding dresses were mix outfits.
This model is a dress made of two fabrics, one of which is presented in the form of a plain material, and the other with a floral pattern.
A bride in a mix dress will look bright, fresh and cheerful in spring.
When choosing a model of a floral wedding dress, in any case, it is necessary to take into account that the brighter the print on the dress, the less intricate the style should be, otherwise the bride risks looking tasteless.

The ideal option is a short dress in a modern style or a wedding suit with a flared skirt.
Current:

The whole dress is in flowers
A dress completely decorated with flowers will appeal to bold, daring and extraordinary brides who want to emphasize their individuality. This model is a wedding dress consisting of light fabric with a bright floral pattern.
Typically, such models are made on a dress in a ballroom, Greek or vintage style. A short wedding dress with flowers looks quite impressive.
However, if you have chosen such a dress, it is important to consider that the accessories for such an outfit should be discreet.
The color of the buds is an important selection criterion
Traditionally, wedding bouquets are made exclusively from light flowers. To dilute the composition, you can insert several bright accents into it.
Accents can be large or small plants. If you choose large ones, then their number should be minimal (three, five or even one bud). Not all plant colors are suitable for the bride's image. Flowers should emphasize sophistication, innocence and elegance. Plants cope well with this task:
- white, milky, cream;
- yellow-orange and coral;
- violet, blue, lilac;
- pink, purple.
Brave brides can choose bouquets of bright buds: red, purple, azure. Rich shades symbolize passion, energy, power, spiritual strength. In addition, red flowers protect against unfriendly looks and negative energy.
Delicate flowers on a wedding dress
To create a gentle, elegant image of the bride, you can use a white wedding dress, decorated with buds in pastel shades. In this case, you can get an unusual effect if the flowers are arranged asymmetrically.
The buds can be soft pink, pale blue or beige. Floral patterns are located on the train, decorate the hem of the skirt or around the neckline.

Diseases
The chrysanthemum flower is often infected with fungal and bacterial diseases - powdery mildew, gray rot and rust. The main causes of infection are high air humidity, excess nitrogen-containing fertilizers in the soil, and low air temperature.
Rust on chrysanthemum
Signs of powdery mildew are the appearance of a whitish coating on the surface of leaves and shoots. The fact that the plant is affected by rust is indicated by red spots on the surface of the foliage. You can identify gray rot by brown spots on all plant organs, which die over time.
In the fight against such diseases, copper-containing preparations are used - 1% solution of Bordeaux mixture, copper sulfate.
Accessories for a floral wedding dress

Floral accessories will not only complement the bride’s image, but will also make it even more delicate, elegant and romantic.
The wedding dress will look more impressive if the bride’s head is decorated with a tiara decorated with buds of the same colors as on the dress.
A white veil decorated with white flowers will turn the bride into a fairy-tale princess.
