Why You Should Use Silk Ribbon on Your Bouquet

Picking out which blooms and greenery to use is certainly one of the most essential parts of planning your wedding floral arrangements, but the last step to your bridal bouquet is also important: the ribbon!
Not only are silk ribbons an elegant addition to your florals, but they’re also useful. Here’s why you should wrap all of your bridal party bouquet bases in silk ribbon.

The Fabric Works Well for Weddings

Silk ribbon is a light, romantic fabric that allows for wispy movements in the breeze. Their weight also keeps them from making your bouquet feel heavier, like other fabrics can do.
And it’s simply a chic option that can be the perfect finishing touch to any floral arrangement, especially for your wedding day!

Ribbons Compliment Your Flowers

If your floral designer uses naturally-dyed ribbons from flowers and plants, the fabric will truly suit your own flowers in a beautiful way! You can often find ones that are of complementary colors to your bridal and bridesmaid bouquets.

They’re Soft on Your Hands

Between the bridal portraits, the ceremony, and all the formal portraits with your spouse and family members afterwards, you’ll be thankful you picked soft silk ribbons to wrap your bouquet in.

Best Ribbons for Bridal Bouquets

I love using anything naturally or hand-dyed when it comes to ribbon! Some of my favorite options include Froufrou Chic, Silk and Willow, and Tono and Co.

Highly recommend Roots Floral Design - absolutely beautiful!

“Kaytee is an absolute GEM! She has so much passion and care for what she does, that you feel like she's a friend more than a vendor. She walks you through each step of the floral process with organization, examples, cost, and detail -- all things that make my detail-oriented heart happy. The end result far exceeded anything we could have hoped for or imagined. ALL. THE. GREENERY. Future brides, run, don't walk to Roots for your wedding. From start to finish, she took care of every single floral need to make our day positively beautiful.”

-Laura, Summer 2019 Wedding

FROM START TO FINISH, SHE TOOK CARE OF EVERY SINGLE FLORAL NEED.

"Kaytee became so much more than a vendor for us. The first time I met her I felt as though I met a long lost friend. She was the very first vendor I chose for the wedding (even before the venue) and she lived up to all my expectations and went above and beyond.  Each time I met with her I felt confident that she completely comprehended my wants and would fashion them into something that looks put together, yet natural. The day-of she silently transformed a bland rustic space into an enchanting, romantic barn. I couldn't have asked for anything more beautiful or unique."

"Kaytee was so great to work with!!! I provided her with some floral inspirations from Pinterest and Instagram but gave her a lot of free rein coming up with the flowers for our wedding and she went above and beyond expectations. Our photographer was obsessed with all the bouquets and we got so many great pictures of them! She did such a good job making my smaller budget work to make high impact arrangements. She's also the sweetest person to be around!"

-Bo, Spring 2019 Wedding

SHE WENT ABOVE AND BEYOND EXPECTATIONS!
