We’ve seen some incredible work in the area of floral design and so it’s no surprise that narrowing down the list of our favourite bouquets of 2016 was a tough task for this year in review series. Every single one of these creations is utterly captivating! Organic, textured arrangements continue to trend heavily and while this was definitely reflected in our picks, we also included some gorgeous, more traditional options as well.
We hope you’ve enjoyed this look back at the wonderful craftsmanship, imagery and inspiring details created by top professionals in the wedding industry, just as much as we’ve enjoyed sharing them!
