Public Proposal at the Wedding Ceremony: The Charm and Key Points of 'Dozen Roses' for Grooms to Consider!

The Charming "Dozen Roses" Performance ♡

Having the Dozen Roses performance during the ceremony is incredibly romantic!

<< What is Dozen Roses? >>

This is a performance where the groom gathers 12 roses from the guests along the aisle of the chapel, binds them into a bouquet, and presents them to the bride as a proposal.

It originates from a tradition in medieval Europe where a man would collect wildflowers along the way from his home to the woman's home to present her with a bouquet when proposing.

Each of the 12 roses has its own meaning, and it is lovely to attach tags that indicate these meanings, allowing the groom to choose the guests that best fit each word to hold the roses.

<< The Meanings of the 12 Roses >>

① Gratitude

② Sincerity

③ Happiness

④ Trust

⑤ Hope

⑥ Affection

⑦ Passion

⑧ Truth

⑨ Respect

⑩ Glory

⑪ Effort

⑫ Eternity

The act of giving the roses signifies that I dedicate all these words to you.

The meaning of the 12 roses is "Will you marry me?"

In addition to the individual meanings of each of the 12 roses,

when collected together, they also convey the message "Will you marry me?", adding to the romantic aspect of the Dozen Roses.

The bride receiving the roses will choose one meaning from the 12 meanings represented by the roses.

Then, she will say, "I vow this word to you" and present it to the groom to make it a boutonniere... this is the flow of the Dozen Roses performance.

Important Points to Consider When Performing Dozen Roses: The Groom's Actions!

When executing the Dozen Roses performance, the most crucial point is the groom's gaze and demeanor!

The groom should make a grand entrance into the chapel, walking confidently while facing forward. ♡

It’s also important that when presenting the roses to the bride, he looks her in the eyes.

Looking down or shyly averting his gaze can come off as too pleading, diminishing the groom's charm!

The Dozen Roses performance during the wedding is not just a risky confession but a gesture exchanged between two people who vow their eternal love for each other. Please execute it with confidence and style! ♡

Other Flowers Besides Roses Are Also Fine ♩

While preparing 12 red roses is the classic choice, if it doesn't match the chapel decor or wedding theme, there are instances where couples opt for flowers other than roses for the Dozen Roses performance. ♡

It seems that some use gerberas, baby’s breath, or a bouquet of small flowers, and there might be occasions where a mix of colorful roses is prepared.

Some couples have even chosen to do the Dozen Roses performance with large giant flowers instead of fresh ones! This creates a significant impact and is sure to surprise the guests.

Make the Love Vows Even More Romantic ♡

The popular Dozen Roses performance at the wedding ceremony is a wonderful act that remains in the memories of not just the newlyweds but all the guests present.

By embedding 12 messages and vows in the 12 roses, and if they can perform a public proposal that embodies eternal love,

it will undoubtedly make you fall in love with your husband all over again! ♩
