Red Wedding Flower Bouquets
When a bride decides to carry a red wedding flower bouquet, she will have many flowers to choose from. Some of the most common are: Flamingo flower; Heliconia; Amaryllis; Anemone; Snapdragon; Cockscomb; Montbretia; Gerbera; Roses; Carnations; Tulips; Anthuriums; Lilies; Chrysanthemums, and more. For a very daring bride, the combination of deep red and purple, two colors that sit together in the color wheel can be very exciting. Red is the hottest, most passionate color in the color spectrum, it is very intense, and looks spectacular set against green. The contrast of red and white can look stunning when interesting textures are involved. One of the most amazing bouquets we have seen is a red flower and purple feather posy. A posy is a small, round, flower bouquet. It can be assembled with red peonies in peak condition, and deep red or purple feather trim. Finish the posy with a crimson bow. An elegant, wired red wedding flower bouquet can be assembled with red lilies and pink roses.  There is nothing more beautiful than to fill a church and a reception venue with flowers for a wedding. Once you decide on your flower bouquet, you will have to choose  bouquets for your bridesmaids and boutonnieres for the men in the wedding party including the groom. It´s important that all the bouquets and boutonnieres match. If you´re having a church wedding, some of the places you´ll want to decorate are the entrance, the altar, and the pews. For your centerpieces you can also include some of the flowers you used in your wedding bouquet, as long as they are not the flowers that have perfume as they will interfere with the aroma of the food. Also try to have your centerpieces at a an adequate height so that they don´t interfere with your guests conversations. If you´re having a bar you can also have it decorated with flowers.When designing red wedding flower bouquets, many florists take into account the different textures that can be included in a bouquet to give it depth and contrast. A bouquet will become fascinating and exciting when different and unusual textures are incorporated. Some flower bouquets take this into the extremes by combining the smoothest of textures with the roughness of contrasting elements. In a bouquet this can be accomplished by incorporating brittle shells into creamy flowers. When thinking about textures, there are various options: similar textures, contrasting textures, and complimentary textures. If you like a certain kind of bouquet and red flowers, but think they need a twist, try thinking about keeping the colors and shape, and changing the textures. Many times this can be accomplished by changing the foliage, the fabric of the ribbon, or incorporating elements into the wedding flower bouquet such as twigs or strings of beads or crystals. An option for the bridesmaids is to carry small posies of the same flowers as the bride´s bouquet. They can be finished with a bow of ribbon or raffia and strands of ivy. A great color combination for a wedding with a red color scheme is a red wedding flower bouquet of "strawberries and cream". This can be accomplished by using red flowers like roses, tulips, or calla lilies in red combined with the same flowers in a creamy white color. Another fantastic combination for a red bouquet of flowers is to use red cockscombs, pink zinnias, and scented cream carnations, handtied with a black ribbon. Some flower bouquets are very easy to make, especially hand tied bouquets of certain flowers like tulips. When using red tulips, you have to take into account some considerations. Tulips don´t like warm or hot weather, as the open en wilt. If your wedding is taking place on the beach or in a garden, red tulips are probably not the best choice; red roses, red tropical flowers, or red orchids will probably be a better choice. After you buy red flowers, whether tulips, roses, or other, it´s important to prepare them. Cut about half an inch fro the stems under tepid running water and place them immediately in a container with flower food. To revive drooping blooms, stand the flowers in tepid water with flower food, wrapping the flower heads in paper, and leave for several hours while the water eliminates air locks. If you decide on using red roses for your wedding flower bouquet, a hand tied bouquet will be the easiest to make. If you want the bouquet to last, a good suggestion would be to wire each individual flower, and wrap with florist tape. You can find florist wire and tape at craft shops and online. Floral wires can be covered with a green or brown florist´s tape so that they resemble flower stems and blend into the flower bouquets.
