How to choose the right bridal bouquet in mint color:
- a composition in delicate colors is pastel, which means it will suit only a thin girl, because all light colors visually increase the figure, even a few extra pounds, which the cut of the dress will successfully hide, a mint bouquet can accidentally emphasize;
- light shades symbolize youth, freshness and innocence, in contrast to red and orange bouquets, which symbolize sexuality and passion, and are therefore suitable for young, inexperienced brides;
- dark-haired - brightness and drama, fair-haired - a play of shades and attention to detail, so a mint bouquet for a brunette should contain bright accents.
The collective image of a bride with such a composition is a young, modest, innocent and faithful girl, blonde or fair-haired.
What to combine the bouquet with?
Brides want to combine a floral arrangement with certain elements in their wardrobe or overall look. It is also common to order a design for a mint-colored cake or glasses.
A classic option is a white traditional dress and a menthol necklace. The girl will look special, calm and romantic.
Please note that mint comes in several shades depending on the tone (dark or light). Be sure to take this fact into account. Blondes should choose the lighter option, and brunettes, on the contrary, should choose the darker one.
A mint shade looks ideal on tanned skin, so before this the bride needs to visit a solarium.
Wedding style
If the wedding organizers have conceived a style solution for the event, then a lot of questions arise: where to hold such a wedding, what is the size of the event?
Mint tones for decorating a room are light shades of green, blue and yellow.
- Pastel colors will look harmonious in nature; the holiday can be held in a country house, on the terrace or in the courtyard.
- If you rent a room with whitewashed walls and ceiling for a banquet, then a mint style can be created by combining flowers in vases and napkins.
- The mint style looks good when decorating a luxurious event for several hundred people.
- For a chamber wedding in boho style, you can choose original details: wicker chairs, vases with flowers, vertical gardening.
Mint color and pastel shades
Any shades of pastel colors will be an equally successful alternative to light tones. They form the perfect combination of colors with a mint tone, because it itself belongs to this delicate, blurry palette. And again, thanks to the pastel colors, it sounds new every time.
- Pastel pink and peach. Gives menthol undertones the purity and freshness of youth. This combination is associated with neatness and impeccable taste, which stands out from the standard framework.
- Pastel lime and blue. They are as close as possible in palette to menthol shades. It is not surprising that such a combination results in a rather harmonious and pleasing mix. It brings to mind the feeling of 100% summer - with a turquoise sea, warm sun and a fun holiday.
- Pastel lilac. The addition of lilac shades results in an unusual and incredibly feminine combination.
The mint-pink combination is perfect for a shabby chic or Provence style room.

Combinations
A wedding bouquet in mint color is chosen not on its own, but in the context. Some elements of the image should be in appropriate colors (for example, the bridesmaids' outfits, as in the photo below).
This can be both wedding decoration and individual details: makeup, hair decorations; any bouquet goes well with a white dress, however, if there are white flowers in it, when choosing, it is better to attach them to the dress so that they match in tone.
How much mint should be in the interior: how not to go too far
When creating a high-quality interior of a room, it is enough to leave a few characteristic accents. To do this, just fill the wallpaper, curtains, and upholstered furniture with a mint tone. As for surface finishing, light green wallpaper may differ in texture, ornament, and the presence of additional tones.
Wallpaper can be used both for full wall covering and for high-quality zoning.
Curtains and other textiles in the room can be only mint or with additions of golden, beige or brown. The harmony of turquoise and mint in thick night curtains will have a positive effect on the unusualness of the interior.
Upholstered furniture, in particular sofas, can be light green, but diluted with gray, cream or coffee. With the help of this design, warmth and comfort are felt, the modernity and sense of taste of the owners of the house is emphasized.
On a note! An overabundance of mint shade will be noticeable if this color is involved in all the details of an already furnished room.
Makeup choice
In order for the image to look harmonious as a whole, there are features of combining shades of light blue and pale emerald with hair and makeup. It is important to correctly combine the cool colors of the bouquet with the warm colors of the makeup.
- A girl with cool blonde hair should wear makeup based on gray eye shadow and fuchsia lipstick.
- A brown-haired woman with creative highlights will suit a peach complexion, coral and dusty pink lipstick.
- A dark brown brunette with fair skin without yellow undertones should choose pearlescent powder, dark gray eye shadow and pink lipstick.
- For a brunette with dark skin, a nude make-up with brown shadows will suit her.

What to assemble a composition from
To create a bouquet, let's decide on a color scheme. For the base, take mint flowers and add blue, yellow, green and purple.
To collect a bouquet in floristry, both natural flowers and artificial analogues can be used.
Mint buds
The mint color of the bud is not common in nature. Natural mint-colored flowers are not used for bouquets, since they are wild varieties or rare indoor varieties. The exotic varieties closest in shade to mint are:
- crossandra “green ice” is a shrub native to Africa and Asia;
- emerald vines (strongylodon) - grow in tropical Philippine forests;
- turquoise hyacinth.
Interesting! Succulents are sometimes used in wedding bouquets - greenish cactus flowers have clearly defined outlines.
Artificial color
To create the desired image, florists use coloring of white flowers in the desired shade. To assemble a bouquet, you can purchase painted flowers, or you can color them yourself. To do this, the flowers are kept in water with food coloring dissolved in it for up to 20 hours to achieve the exact shade, but after 8 hours the edges of the buds will be colored.
To achieve a mint shade, you need to mix green and blue dye. Flowers for coloring:
- roses;
- tulips;
- carnations;
- peonies;
- orchids.
If you are afraid to color the flowers yourself, you can leave it to the florist.
The cheapest solution is artificial roses, which can be bought in an online store. They are made from foamiran. Using this material it is easy to get a beautiful mint bridal bouquet. The photo below is an example of such a composition:
Flowers for background
To diversify the bouquet, you can add green flowers. For example, the Chinese tree peony variety “green ball”. This tone goes well with light emerald. A wonderful color accent would be blue hydrangea or freesia. Eucalyptus is suitable for leaves. Its cool tone is an excellent background for a bouquet.
Mono option
A monobouquet is a bouquet of flowers of one type; it can be made in one color or in several. To make it look more interesting, the bouquet needs to be made small, elegant, equipped with leaves and wrapped with ribbons.
Options for mono bouquets:
- mint roses;
- mint and white roses;
- painted orchids;
- mono bouquet of artificial peonies.
Multicolor solutions
Mint and pastel shades are tones that are difficult to overload the attention with, so when used, you get a varied and interesting bridal bouquet in mint color. The photo below is a good example of the design:
Hydrangea composition
For a rustic-style wedding, you can dilute sprigs of emerald-colored hydrangea with small wildflowers. We combine mint and blue hydrangea with soft pink roses.
Option with succulents
Succulents are bright flowers that can create an interesting accent. Mint wedding bouquets with white roses and succulents look very voluminous and interesting.
A bouquet based on succulents with blue hydrangea, white and blue roses looks delicate, the flow of shades will emphasize the whiteness of the skin.
What flowers should I use?
There are several varieties of flower plant varieties. Pay attention immediately to what your bouquet will be like. It can be made from artificial flowers, or maybe from real ones. The final choice will, of course, be yours. Both options are acceptable in terms of fashion and style. Both one and the other have their advantages and disadvantages.

Since the mint color looks quite rare and exclusive, it is worth choosing exactly the same plants for it, which will be distinguished by their exoticism and originality. Please note that you will have to order the color in advance as it is not always available in large quantities at flower shops. The shade is not considered a frequently sold shade, so it is not ordered for future use.
- Rose is a classic option, the existence of which few people know. Roses look especially gentle and sophisticated. Although these flowers are considered royal, in this case they acquire a completely different color from the one we are used to seeing. Roses become truly exotic.
- The orchid is a rare and interesting flower. Its inflorescences look quite original and creative. In addition, it is distinguished by its color variety. Buds, as a rule, are not painted in one tone. They have a slightly different interesting shape. Inside each flower there is a so-called stamen, which is either white or yellow. From this stamen come arrows that repeat its color. And from the middle to the edges a rich mint color begins. Thanks to this color scheme, an unusual composition is created.
- Hydrangeas and cutters are delicate and neat inflorescences that look very elegant together. It seems like a wonderful butterfly is about to land on the hydrangea. If you pay attention to the photographs of wedding bouquets made of hydrangeas and freesias, you will notice their original shape and unique appearance. A mint tone definitely suits such plants.
