I always love a creative bouquet wrap. Patterned textiles, traditional tartans or brocades, glittery wire, you name it — anything that goes beyond the standard satin ribbon is an awesome way to add some of your own personality to your most important accessory of the day. So naturally I’m a fan of these unique bouquet wraps, created by Matthew David Hopkins, the Creative Director at 360 Design Events.

These wraps are actually made of vintage wedding dress material (so you can recreate the look by shopping for an antique gown or thrift store, or using the wedding dress of an older family member). “This little touch adds depth and meaning, and gives the bouquet a sense of timelessness,” Hopkins says. “Plus, it fulfills either something old, or something borrowed.”

While working on a couple of wedding flower stories for our magazines, one trend kept coming up as I was interviewing florists: The biggest bouquet color right now is definitely green. Check out these five gorgeous emerald-colored bouquets to see what green blooms are out there and which flowers they look best with.
