  fertility, virginity and hope, for some couples
  it was a code secretly shared.
• In ancient Egypt, Rome and some Nordic regions,
  the bride bouquet was made of thyme, bay leaf and
  garlic to protect themselves, they believed it
  would keep bad spirits away so they could live
  happily ever after.
• In Greece, brides would choose ivys as a symbol
  of a strong and long lasting bond.
• In India, even in the low classes, people would
  throw rose petals to walk on them. In resume, the
  bouquet is not only a millenarian expression of

  pick something that you can easily handle. If it
  is comfortable it will look natural on you adding
  beauty and elegance to you.
• Choose flowers according to the season

  sometimes, the flower may be out of season. Some
  flowers like roses are easy to find on every
  season but other like anemones dont.
