If you look at flowers scientifically, you know they cannot speak, yet if you look at them aesthetically or socially, you know how much a flower bouquet says to the person who receives it.
For example, think of those lying sick in bed or of that special someone, who hopes you are thinking of them. What a wonderful thing it is, to receive a colorful flower bouquet in a stark, white hospital room. The next most wonderful thing is receiving a bouquet of roses on Valentine’s Day or an arrangement of flowers in a basket on your birthday. Of course, each flower has a meaning of its own, but when you send a bouquet, you are thinking of the person who will receive it and will know that you have thought of them, if only for a moment.
The language of flowers and their arrangement in a bouquet is a crucial issue at a formal ceremony, such as a wedding. For example, if it is a formal and traditional wedding, the bride will carry a cascade bouquet, where some flowers trail below the main bouquet. If it is an informal wedding, then the bride will carry a hand-tied bouquet, where she holds flower and foliage stems in her hand. These stems are then tightly wrapped around the center of the bouquet, using ribbon or French braid. For a cosmopolitan wedding, brides can carry contemporary bouquets, which are inspired by unconventional ideas and forms.
The language of flowers gains importance when you select the blooms that will be included in the bridal bouquet. You can include flowers such as stephanotises, which symbolize good luck, pimpernel, which symbolizes change, ivy for friendship, forget-me-nots for true love, and white blooms for innocence.
