Bridal Bouquet
The round hand-tied nosegay is a favourite among brides today. Roses, the popular flower choice because of their year-round availability, are used as the main focus of this bouquet. The sensual texture of tulips and minimal greens are added to soften the arrangement. Ribbon-wrapped stems finish the bouquet, which most brides dream of for their special day.

Construction
Starting from the centre, add flowers and foliage as desired. Make sure to alter the heights to add depth and bring heads down as you make a round mound. Remember larger is not always better – so keep to a reasonable size as not to overwhelm the bouquet. Stems tend to get bulky for small brides to manage if made large – the arrangement should be comfortable to hold.
