At her wedding, any bride should look irresistible, all eyes should be focused on her, and this is facilitated by a well-chosen image. Nowadays, girls are increasingly moving away from the usual canons and prefer to decorate their wedding and choose their outfit in a bright and original style. At the same time, it is not necessary to focus on all elements of the wedding image; it is enough to use one bright detail, for example, a bride’s bouquet with orange rosebuds.

How to arrange a bouquet?
There are several options that are used in design. Pay attention to the saturation of the shade. Accordingly, it is not so easy to create many different compositions with it.
Your task is to mute the image or, on the contrary, enhance it. What exactly is best to do, you will have to decide on your own, based on the desired wedding image.
Decorative designs can include:
- satin ribbons;
- beads;
- rhinestones;
- green twigs.
You should not add completely different rich tones. With this option, the bouquet will immediately look too vulgar, and neither the bride nor anyone present would want this.
You will have to decorate as concisely and simply as possible. For example, add green succulent branches to a bouquet of orange tulips. Don’t forget to tie the resulting composition with a thin satin ribbon at the very base.
Monobouquet or composition?
When choosing flowers for an orange wedding bouquet, you can choose only one type - chrysanthemums, callas, tulips, roses, alstroemerias, lilies, gerberas, dahlias. It is preferable to highlight the selected flowers with rich greenery, dried flowers or even autumn leaves.
Or you can create an orange bridal bouquet from different flowers, using and saturating it with different shades of color, playing with them, emphasizing their diversity and beauty.
You can entrust the execution of your bouquet to experienced florists who will choose the most successful matching options, or you can do hand-made and create your first bouquet in floristry, simply armed with the flowers you like, tying them with a satin ribbon and decorating the petals with beads, stones or other floral decor, improvised material.
Symbolism of color
A bouquet for a wedding should not only successfully complement the image of the newlywed, but also be a full-fledged component of the overall wedding decor. The composition should be combined with the texture of the dress fabric. It is important to take the choice of shade and varieties of flowers seriously.
Orange has a warm color temperature. This is a combination of noble red and sunny yellow. The result is a rich holiday color that is perfect for a wedding.
It is believed that an orange bouquet would be especially appropriate for an autumn celebration. But this shade has a large palette that allows you to use it at any time of the year: in the summer - cinnabar and pomegranate, in the winter - carrot, coral and orange, in the spring - peach and copper, in the fall - fire and pumpkin.
Signs and traditions
Orange in a gift bouquet - wishes the newlyweds wealth and happiness in family life. It is important not to overdo it with bright colors, and if there is too much of it, then dilute it with calm shades.
The fiery color is used in the Spanish wedding tradition. Flowers of this shade are not only included in the floral arrangement, but also woven into the bride’s hair when decorating the hairstyle. This custom is associated with the orange tree cultivated in Spain. Its fruits are bright, and the plant itself is evergreen. The bride, if orange is present in her clothes and surroundings, will be young and blooming all the time after marriage.
Interpretation of a fashion trend
When choosing a bridal bouquet with orange flowers, you should focus on the decor of the room, the style and color of the girl’s outfit. A cascading dress with a full skirt will decorate the monochrome version. If the cut is loose and the fabric is light, then a modest composition of tulips and anemones will do. An armful of garden or wildflowers will complement a wedding outfit in a boho or vintage style.

Main features of using orange color in interior design
The stimulating specific properties of color somewhat limit its use. It is generally accepted that orange is appropriate in rooms that have nothing to do with relaxation and rest, that is, in the dining room, kitchen, home office or library. It is undesirable to use it in the interior of rooms located on the south side - this can cause a subconscious feeling of excessive heat.
Orange color is quite appropriate in almost all areas of art. And if in its pure form it is unacceptable in classic, empire and rococo, then its combination in the interior with brown gives an interesting terracotta shade, the relevance of which in the above directions is beyond doubt.
It is ideal to use orange in rooms located on the north side.
As a rule, most of these are slightly darkened and cool rooms, and thanks to the sunshine of this color, such rooms are instantly transformed, you just need to add a bright accessory. For example: orange curtains or a simple orange lampshade can add a feeling of warmth and coziness. Quite often, decorators and designers use a combination of orange with wickerwork in the interior or with compositions consisting of dried flowers and autumn leaves.
Another property of this color is the visual approximation of objects.
Using this quality wisely allows you to adjust the interior of the room to your liking. For example: you can make a narrow room visually quite spacious, and in a room with high ceilings, visually push the walls apart, expanding the space, by using orange to decorate the ceiling plane.
Harmony with lilac flowers
Orange-lilac bouquets are now at the peak of popularity in wedding floristry. Flowers selected in this particular palette look catchy and glamorous, which makes this combination ultra-fashionable. Each flower in such a composition wants to express itself, to emphasize its individuality and peculiarity, which, however, concerns not only the flowers, but also their owner.
A bouquet in these colors will be appropriate at any time of the year, the main thing is to choose the right combination of shades - in winter, these more subdued tones in the bouquet are enough, since they will look bright against the background of white snow. But it will look especially elegant in the spring season in combination with flowers such as callas, orchids, freesias, roses, and peonies.
Let's look at the most used flowers.
What flowers are combined in a bouquet
Plants create the shape and mood of the composition. Here it is important to choose flowers and decorative greenery so that they do not conflict, but look like a single whole.
The main rule is that you cannot combine bulbous and woody plants. For example, tulips and roses will never make good neighbors. Otherwise, there are so many possible combinations that you could write a textbook. We will briefly list only the basic rules.
Companion flowers and their combinations
There is flora that looks great in any flower company. We talked about peonies and alstroemerias in separate articles “ What do alstroemerias go with in a bouquet: photos and descriptions of compositions ” and “ What flowers do peonies go with: secrets of floristry ”
. Here we will name other sociable plants.
- Rose
It is no coincidence that they are called the queen of flowers: she looks great in any environment. But it is important to consider that this is a romantic flower that makes the bouquet tender and sensual. This is appropriate for a gift to loved ones, but roses should not dominate in compositions for formal events.
- Noble chrysanthemums
Give bouquets elegant simplicity and conciseness.
They are often combined with roses to neutralize romantic overtones, as well as gerberas
and sunflowers . - Gerberas
also universal. They resemble large daisies and have a huge palette. They can be added to almost any composition to emphasize shape or add color accents.
To make the bouquet more airy and delicate, florists often use gypsophila
. Its miniature inflorescences look spectacular next to a huge hydrangea and neat bush roses.
What colors go with autumn and summer flowers?
If you use seasonal flora in a bouquet, it will take on a special mood. Autumn flowers go well together: zinnias, asters, chrysanthemums and sunflowers are often found in compositions for September 1
or
Teacher's Day
.
Special mention to dahlias
. They have so many varieties that they are quite self-sufficient. From different varieties you can assemble a real designer bouquet.
Fragrant summer flowers, such as chamomile
and lavender, beautifully combined with various ornamental grasses and other field flora: anemones, cornflowers, poppies, shepherd's purse and forget-me-nots. To make the ensemble more aristocratic and elegant, add several branches of eustoma.
How to beautifully combine “masculine” flowers in a bouquet: irises and gladioli
In floristry, there are plants that symbolize male strength and energy. In the East, irises
They are given to boys as a symbol of maturity and courage, but we are used to seeing them with spring tulips, openwork alstroemerias, Kenyan and spray roses.
Despite their elongated shape, sword-shaped gladioli
harmonize well with large and openwork flowers. They can be combined with lush dahlias, lilies and gerberas.
Roses
Roses are the classic queen among all flowers, which is always at the peak of popularity and demand. But its orange version is used with caution and only by original individuals who are not afraid of bold experiments. So we can say with confidence that a bride’s wedding bouquet of orange roses is the solution of extravagant people.
Such bouquets look incredibly attractive, beautiful and tasteful. Compositions with natural berries are in harmony - hypericum, rowan, viburnum. Garden or smaller flowers in the composition, for example, marigolds, add sophistication and spiritual simplicity to the bouquet.
Roses combined with dahlias, callas or peonies will look multifaceted and chic.
What to combine the bouquet with?
An important point is not only the harmonious combination of floral elements, but also what image to create for the bride. The resulting composition will go perfectly with a snow-white dress. It can be made in absolutely any style.
If you don’t want a simple and boring solution based on contrast, then think about a combination like juicy orange with a champagne-colored dress. You can achieve a truly elegant and sophisticated look.
To create it, you need to dilute a champagne-colored peach dress with a juicy orange bouquet. For your hairstyle, choose big and chunky curls. Pay attention to your makeup too. It should be light, natural and relaxed.
Bedroom interior
Since this room should be conducive to rest and relaxation, it is better if the orange is in the most delicate shades, which will form pastel combinations.
For those who like bright colors, you can take rich tangerine or another bright one, but then it should only be used spot-on in the room. In the form of separate small parts.
If you want a classic interior that is not replete with color accents, then you can give one piece of advice. Surround orange with as neutral shades as possible to create a stylish room.
