A Heartfelt Gift for Parents: How to Choose the Perfect Bouquet for a Floral Presentation ♡

A Bouquet Presentation to Show Appreciation to Parents

At the end of the wedding, the scene where you express gratitude to your parents is typically the presentation of a bouquet and memorial gifts♡

It’s common to give a bouquet to your mother and a memorial gift to your father＊

Many brides are particular about the “memorial gift” they give to their fathers, such as a weight doll or a certificate of thanks for raising children...

However, when it comes to the “bouquet” for mothers, many brides tend to leave it up to the florist without specific requests.

Nevertheless, a bouquet is also a way to convey gratitude to your parents. You want to include flowers that they will truly appreciate, right?◎

This time, we’ll introduce how to choose a bouquet for your parents that they will love!

How to Choose a Bouquet for Presentation ① Choose Flowers Your Mother Likes

First, let’s talk about choosing flowers based on your mother’s favorite blooms!

A bouquet is an expression of gratitude. You want to select flowers that they will enjoy♩

If you know her favorite flowers, it would be lovely to combine them and gift her the bouquet.

How to Choose a Bouquet for Presentation ② Include Carnations

Adding carnations to the bouquet is also recommended＊

Carnations are the classic flower given on Mother's Day♡

The flower language of carnations is "pure and deep love." They are perfect flowers to give to parents who have raised you with overflowing love♡

By the way, red carnations have the flower language of “love for mothers.” If you particularly want to express your gratitude to your mother, choosing bright red carnations could be a good choice♩

How to Choose a Bouquet for Presentation ③ Choose Based on Flower Language

Next, let’s look at choosing a bouquet based on flower language＊

Flowers that symbolize “gratitude” are often chosen for wedding bouquets♩

Here are some recommended flowers with flower languages of gratitude♡

☑ Pink Roses

☑ Pink Gerberas

☑ Baby's Breath

☑ Red Poppies

☑ Turkish Bellflower

When choosing flowers based on flower language, it might be nice to write the meanings on a card to accompany the bouquet♩

How to Choose a Bouquet for Presentation ④ Consider Venue Flowers and Bouquets

Many brides also consider the relationship with other flowers used in the wedding, like venue flowers and bouquets＊

For example,

☑ To create a sense of unity in the venue, a bouquet similar to the table floral arrangements was chosen.

☑ Since the table flowers were in cool tones, a warm-toned bouquet was selected to stand out.

☑ To evoke memories of the wedding, a bouquet similar to the bride’s bouquet was chosen.

☑ To avoid a similar atmosphere when standing next to each other, different flowers were selected from the bouquet.

Each bride has her approach, whether to create a similar or different ambiance, but it seems many are considering the relationship between venue flowers and the bouquet in their choices◎

How to Choose a Bouquet for Presentation ⑤ Choose Something Different from a Regular Bouquet

Finally, let’s talk about brides who chose something a bit different from the regular bouquet＊

This bride chose a box flower♡

There was also an element where the newlyweds would open the lid and reveal the flowers, adding a nice surprise to the presentation♩

It’s not just handing it over; it’s a way to create a little surprise◎

Some brides even presented dried flowers instead of fresh ones＊

Dried flowers can last forever, so it must be a nice reminder for mothers♩
