Finding your bridal style is an exciting journey and how a woman arrives at hers is deeply personal. While some brides may have envisioned their veil-to-train look long before hearing the proposal, others find their style unfolding in real time, learning more about themselves with every choice they make. Which brings us to the next important decision: selecting your wedding bouquet.

Scrolling through inspiration on Instagram and Pinterest often reveals bouquets overflowing with an array of flowers, fillers, and lush greenery. While these abundant arrangements are undeniably eye-catching on social media, they don’t resonate with every bride. For clients seeking a more distinctive alternative, we often suggest focusing on a single variety of flower. The appeal of a mono-floral bouquet lies in its quiet confidence – it reflects an aesthetic sensibility guided by personal taste rather than passing trends.

B&B Blooms in Spotlight: Amnesia Rose

by

“Love planted a rose, and the world turned sweet.” With so many quotes about the romantic beauty attributed to the rose, the words of poet Katherine Lee Bates rank as our favorite. Not all roses are the same though, and each type has its own singular allure.

To inaugurate B&B Blooms in Spotlight, a blog series devoted to our favorite wedding flowers, we are going to talk about the amnesia rose. In recent years, this bloom has caught the admiring eye of the wedding industry and become very popular with our own brides. What makes the amnesia rose so special is its unique lavender, beige and green tones, which give the flower a lovely ‘antique’ look. For this reason, they are the perfect floral feature to showcase in a vintage style wedding.
