You probably know the saying "Less is more". According to the latest trends, this also turns out to be true for bridal bouquets: they are getting smaller and finer! Do you want to shine beautifully 'on trend' on your big day? Then a 'petite' bridal bouquet might be the ideal addition to complete your look.

Why choose a small bridal bouquet?
Often brides today choose a simple and small bridal bouquet to draw more attention to their wedding attire . Sometimes a large bouquet can literally be an eye-catcher in your photos, or a bit awkward to hold. In contrast, a petite bridal bouquet can often be held in one hand, which is easy during your ceremony and photo shoot.
Posy
Posy is the collective term for a 'small bouquet of flowers'. If you are looking for inspiration for your own small bridal bouquet on Pinterest, it is useful to enter this search term as well. Indeed, since Megan Markle & Prince Harry's wedding, this type of bridal bouquet has gained huge popularity. Another typical feature is that it often focuses on one specific type of flower. Ideal if you want to put your favourite flower in the spotlight!
Pastel or bright colours in your small bridal bouquet?
Often small and simple bridal bouquets are associated with light pastel shades such as off-white and old rose; at once very romantic and elegant! On the other hand, bright colours also give a very nice effect in a small bridal bouquet. If you work with a bright theme colour, for example, this can also look simple, subtle and yet stylish in your petite bouquet!
In combination with your floral decorations
If you choose a small bridal bouquet, you can easily extend this minimalist style throughout your entire floral decoration. That way everything fits together nicely and you create the same atmosphere.
On the other hand, you can choose to contrast with striking decorative flower arrangements such as a full flower arch. Incidentally, this is also one of the wedding trends, in terms of flowers: rather subtly set tables are complemented by large decorative flower arrangements. More creative and eye-catching backdrops are also being used for the ceremony again this year. Here, seasonal flowers are mainly used, but of course you choose your favourite type of flowers according to your taste!
