To Throw or Not to Throw the Bouquet?!

Should I keep my bouquet

The Wedding Bouquet … Throw it or keep it?

We asked our followers, are you throwing or keeping your bouquet? Out of over 50 people the result was clear, WE ARE KEEPING IT!

Have you ever wondered why we even throw a bouquet though?

Throwing or tossing the bouquet has been a wedding tradition for hundreds of years, but it actually started from a slightly different tradition. That tradition was to try and take pieces of the brides dress or flowers in hope that some of her fortune would be passed on. I guess, thankfully ladies, that tradition moved to throwing of the bouquet in later years. Way back when, the bride would actually throw her bouquet and make a dash for the exit. No first dance and no party!!!

As an entertainment business we always love special moments during weddings. Special moments throughout your day are what you and your guests will take away as wedding memories which we can hopefully help you create.

Bouquet toss ideas

I want to create memories, but I still want to keep the Bouquet!!
Here are some suggestions if you still want to keep it, but you like the idea of throwing it too.

  • Ask your florist for 2 bouquets, a main one and a smaller tossing one. Skelmersdaleflowercentre offer this service
  • Throw a bridesmaid’s bouquet.
  • Make a lovely moment of it.
    • You could hand your bouquet over to someone special
    • Have a dance off for it
    • Present it privately to someone dear to you
  • Have fun with it. It makes for amazing photos that are usually fun to look back on!
  • Throwing your bouquet after your evening food (buffet) is a great way to inject energy back into the room and fill the dance floor.

The throwing of your bouquet may or may not be for you, now after reading our mini blog, who knows you may do both and keep your main one and throw a smaller one.

Whatever you decide just like most things with your wedding, the bouquet toss is of personal preference, we just hope we’ve helped by giving you some possible options.

You do what’s best for you and happy Wedding planning.

Dreaming of the perfect night for your #perfectwed Dreaming of the perfect night for your #perfectwedding ? Have you thought about #newyearseve ??? If not we recommend you consider it. We’ve had some of the BEST weddings ever on that special night! Here’s some #weddingtips for your #weddingplanning 

1️⃣-Plan early, get your #weddingvenue & suppliers booked asap! 

2️⃣-Send out those #savethedate cards just as quick! 

3️⃣-Think #glitznglam . New Years Eve is traditionally the night to get dressed to the 9s and party like it’s 1999.

4️⃣-Plan your day with midnight in mind. Work with your DJ or band to bring in NYE with style and one that your guests will remember!

5️⃣-Hire a babysitter for those family and friends with children, you don’t want to be left on the dance alone as the clock chimes 00:00.

6️⃣-Transport & Hotels. Think early for booking accommodation; put on transport for guests staying further a field. 

7️⃣-Order enough #champagne to fill a swimming pool, you’ll need it at midnight. Just don’t forget to provide a bit of h20 as well! No one wants an early finisher. 

8️⃣-Costings, NYE will ultimately cost you more as suppliers and venues normally add on a bank holiday fee. 

9️⃣-Plan your day with a later start time, if you want guests to still be partying hard well after midnight, roll with a lazy morning in preparation for a long night. 

🔟-From experience, NYE is one of the best nights to get married. If you want to have the anniversaries of anniversaries then NYE is the night for you.

Kerry’s #weddingtip 👇🏼

Your wedding day isn't the time to experiment. You want to feel beautiful in your own skin so that when you look in the mirror, you see a polished, radiant and confident version of YOU. 
If you're not a big make up wearer normally, you don't have to pack it on for your wedding day. However, if you love a vintage vibe and love to rock a red lip and a wing, then flippin go for it! 
My goal when pampering my brides is to achieve a beautifully flawless make over that truly reflects their personal style. 
If you do fancy adding a bit of extra flair to your look, why not change your lippy in the evening? It's a really easy way to switch up the glam for when you hit the dancefloor!
