For a long time the girl was getting married, decorating herself with a wreath fromcolors. Sometimes it was really a wreath (the forefather of the present crown of the bride as part of a veil that transforms into hats and then into ribbons, depending on the requirements of fashion), sometimes the flowers were woven into the hair.

Tradition, thanks to which appeared in the hands ofall brides of the world wedding bouquets of roses, has a long history. It is believed that it originates in the English fashion of the XVII-XVIII centuries. Then, for the first time, wedding dresses were adorned with orange blossom flowers - florandrant. And this fashion quickly gained popularity in Europe, even though the orange flowers were very expensive. What can not you do for the happiest day of your life!

Expensiveness, and therefore inaccessibility of orange blossomled to the fact that girls from poor families, walking under the crown, began to decorate themselves with other, simpler colors. Most often, field flowers were available (garden costs were not cheaper than orange ones, and wedding bouquets of roses would be a fantastically expensive thing), and they are difficult to attach to the dress - too fragile stems. So the first nouveaux of bouquets appeared, which grew up to our day in an indispensable and perhaps the most significant accessory of the celebration - wedding bouquets of roses. Modern brides can already afford something more than chamomiles and cornflowers, but still, for example, in England, and until now, pansies and forget-me-nots remain the main colors adorning the wedding, and the myrtle twig is invariably weaved into a bouquet for the bride of royal blood.

Red, as you know, the color of love, life, passion. Sometimes it is associated with blood and revenge, remember, for example, that the scarlet carnation is a symbol of the October Revolution of 1917.

White, as is known, is a symbol of purity and innocence. If you are sure of both, white flowers are your flowers.
Black color is a symbol of mourning, sadness. Not a wedding color, I see.
Yellow - everyone knows because of one popular song, that this color is a symbol of separation. Its ancient symbol is disgust, hatred. Be careful with the yellow flowers in the wedding bouquet.
Green is a symbol of faith and hope.
Blue - means a special relationship with the gods. Are you not sure that you can claim such a relationship? Or do not know what kind of gods are they talking about? Think about whether you need a blue flower in a bouquet.
But blue is exactly needed, it is a symbol of fidelity.
The majestic ladies show a purple color - a symbol of greatness.
