Wedding Bouquets: Over 300 Designs for Every Bride

Book Description

The wedding bouquet, like the center jewel in the engagement ring, is a focal point for the celebration. The bouquet’s colors, arrangement, and even fragrance, can express the mood and style of the ceremony, from the bridal gown and attendants’ attire to the décor of the reception room. How to decide? Each of the 300 bouquets displayed here comes with lavish close-up photos and careful descriptions of each detail, with recommendations for the kinds of dresses and ceremonies they best complement. Every color theme receives special treatment (with price range indicators), from whites, ivories and creams to yellows and oranges, reds and pinks, blues and purples, as well as variegated and original color schemes.

Which one to Choose?.......2007-08-17

With the 300 beautiful bouquets in this beautiful little book that are so beautifully photographed it will be hard for the bride to decide which one to choose. The photography is exquisite and shows the bouquets off to perfection giving you a brief description of how it's made and which type of dress it would be appropriate with and the scents they carry. What more could you ask for?
I would recommend this book for all brides in waiting, to help them decide what type of bouquet to choose, for their special occasion.

Good for color ideas.......2007-07-12

This is a great little book to help you get ideas on colors and different types of flowers for your wedding. It's current and gives you just enough information.

Pretty but not exciting.......2007-05-15

I bought this book when I was trying to plan my wedding, reading all the reviews I felt that it could be an excellent resource. On the good side, the pictures are really beautiful with close ups of each arrangement. It is also very well organized with each section focusing on the main colors in the bouquet. Unfortunately, I found the bouquets themselves to be completely unexciting, I got more ideas flipping through wedding magazines. There was not a single arrangment that I ended up showing my florist as an example.

Just what I needed.......2007-01-18

HI! This book had just what I needed to determine what kind of boquet I wanted. It was all PICTURES of RELAVENT stuff and not just a bunch of words. Also it lists out what kind of flowers are in each boquet and what they mean. That is awesome!

A great place to get ideas for your bouquet.......2007-01-10

This book has so many lovely, colorful photos of wedding flowers you will be spoiled for choice. I found it an excellent armchair guide to the many options out there for the bridal bouquet. Even if you have no idea where to start, this book will give you plenty of ideas for picking a stunning modern wedding bouquet.

Book Description

America's most innovative wedding designer—hailed by Modern Bride as the “wedding design dynamo”—showcases her completely fresh and beautifully photographed ideas for personalizing your special day.

Michelle Rago is a rising star in the world of weddings, and she has made her name by focusing on the biggest trend in weddings today: personalization. Now she makes her creative process available to everyone, revealing the techniques that made Modern Bride name her as one of the industry's top twenty-five trendsetters. With stunning photography illustrating ten real-life weddings from a variety of locations and styles—from country nuptials in Vermont to a tropical ceremony in the Caribbean to the St. Regis Hotel in New York to a country club in St. Louis— Signature Weddings shows readers how to tap into their inspiration by focusing on and including:
• How Michelle designs a wedding that truly reflects the bride and groom
• The three essential S's: setting, season, and situation
• Core design elements, ranging from a family heirloom to local foliage; and color palettes that inform every design detail, from bouquets and centerpieces to table settings, decor, invitations, food, dress, and cakes
• Sidebars and boxed text throughout that focus on specific concerns, from destination weddings to wedding programs, dealing with the weather, rehearsal dinners, lighting, music, invitations, and more.

Unlike over-the-top wedding guides full of unrealistic concepts, or dated books that try to impose one old-fashioned approach, Signature Weddings lets couples embark on a creative journey that suits any budget or taste—with results to cherish for a lifetime.

signature weddings.......2007-04-17

This gorgeous, inspiring book is worth every penny. Buy it. You won't regret it. Its amazingly full of ideas and inspiration, no matter what kind of wedding you're planning.

The Vogue of Wedding Planning Books.......2007-01-17

If Anna Wintour were to pick a wedding book that was as visually and editorially pleasing to the bride as Vogue is to fashionista's she would definetly pick Signature Weddings. Not only are the ideas obtainable the book really shows you how to personlize your wedding. After reading this book I feel that I am able to help make my wedding a wonderful memorable event...one filled with love and inspiration. I have only had the book for only a week and have read it from cover to cover.

new bride.......2007-01-16

I was searching online for an inspirational book to help kick start my wedding planning. I purchased Michelle Rago's new book and it has been wonderful! I love the pictures and they way she describes everything made me feel like I could really have all those things at MY wedding!! A must have for any new bride.

A Must Have!.......2007-01-16

As a seasoned event planner, I was most impressed. This is more than a "how to" book, its pure inspiration for creativity with flawless detail. Signature Weddings takes the reader on a passage of discovery with beautiful images and thought provoking text. It's a must have for the newly engaged who desire a wedding that truly reflects who they are.

A designer (and book) like no other.......2007-01-11

Ms. Rago's book is a must for any bride concerned with inspiration for the look of their wedding, regardless of budget. It is crisp, chic, beautifully written and stunningly photographed. She is a real wedding designer and you will see real brides on her pages, not just vacuous celebs.

Run, do not walk - well, type, do not dally - and grab yourself a copy if you are a newly engaged gal!

Good tricks for gown making.......2007-10-17

This book covered the basic Palmer Pletsch pattern fitting techniques (though Fit for Real People is more thorough), and features some tricks for veils and bustling that are wedding gown specific. It would be particularly useful for making a gown for someone with fitting challenges, but it's not a great resource if you're trying to clone an engineered gown from a bridal salon. That's where "Bridal Couture" comes in handy.

bridal gowns; how to make the wedding dress of your dreams.......2006-08-07

Very informative I will use the book alot

Wonderful Resource.......2006-02-01

I am in the Bridal Alterations business and also sew weddings on the side. I am just starting out and wanted to learn more about the insides of wedding gowns. I have used other books by these women (Fit for Real People) to teach sewing classes in local fabric stores and knew they'd put out a great product. Inside they tell you what fabrics to use for interlining, interfacing, step by step construction, patern fitting, and more. There's even a checklist for constructing a wedding gown and yardage and instructions for making petticoats. I REALLY recommend this book!

A Good Guide, But Know How to Sew.......2002-12-12

I was toying with the idea of making my own dress and bought this book. The author is very knowledgeable and the text is well-written. However, if you are a novice you do not want to ACTUALLY attempt a dress without either a.)guidance, or b.)other books to walk you through. This is written for those who truly understand patterns and sewing. However, if you don't sew it is a great book to understand what things you should be looking for if you are having it made by a dressmaker, and the types of fabric/necklines/veils, etc. If you're expecting a step-by-step this is not the book for you.

This beautiful guide contains everything a bride needs to personalize her wedding correspondence elegantly -- but also simply and inexpensively. It includes more than 20 fashionable and fun-to-make invitation and correspondence ideas.

Customer Reviews:

Great ideas for everyone........2007-04-16

I think this book has great ideas and styles for everyone. Some of the ideas are very simple that anyone could do (I am not an artsy/creative person at all), while other ideas are for the more crafty person.

This book was so helpful to me, I saved a lot of money and my invitations are much more personable and more my style than anything I could have bought at a store.

Must be crafty.......2007-04-12

I have found that I am obviously not very crafty. The book tries to lay out the details on how to make the invitations for those of us that are crafty challenged. I decided that there was to much work involved with making your own invitations. There are very nice designs in the book for those people that are willing to put the time and effort into making the invitations.

Wedding Invitations.......2007-03-08

I was looking for more formal invitation options. The term "artful" is correct in the title, for they were crafty. I did not find them to be "stylish" according to my taste.

Helpful.......2007-02-21

This is a nice book. However, it would have been even better if there were more invitation styles included in the book.

Fun and creative ideas.......2006-11-10

This book has a lot of creative ideas for sending out your standard wedding invitation. None of them are extremely hard (though I would skip the one that has your photo plastered onto some sort of zippered card).

Book Description

In this incredible collection of inspirational photos and ideas, floral designer Preston Bailey shares his invaluable experience of more than 20 years in creating the decor for celebrity and high-profile events and tells how to create an unforgettable wedding for brides and grooms-to-be. With engaging text, Bailey guides the reader through the process of planning engagement parties and receptions, and explains how to bring diverse yet elegant elements together to compose the stunning environment of ones dreams. Beginning with large decisions, such as choosing a theme and transforming a wide array of spaces to fit the vision, he moves on to the details--centerpieces, arches, place mats, lighting, table settings, and more.Throughout the book are luxe full-color photographs of nine weddings, with chapters that include a Glorious Glasshouse Fantasy, a Tropical Latin Fantasy, a Modern Metropolitan Fantasy, and a New England Waterfront Fantasy. Also included are nine design motifs from the Signatures by Preston Bailey line. Above all, Bailey encourages anyone planning a wedding, whether large or small, to allow creativity to blossom and have fun while designing their dream event.

Customer Reviews:

The High-Fashion Show of Events..........2007-10-05

Many people say Preston Bailey is over the top- and he is! Duh... I have an event production firm here in LA and we make reference to the authors ideas, then we tone it down a bit, add our own flavor and touch, and there you have it. The point of a book like this that everyone else here seems to miss is that you should NEVER recreate anything in a book- but rather be inspired by it.
The point of my title is to draw a parallel between the ideas in this book, and the point of the high-fashion industry. When Dolce & Gabbana release a silver pleather jumpsuit in a runway show, they don't want you to actually wear that on the street; but rather, they want you to move in a more conservative version of that design that is usually toned down and sold in the store. It's like asking for a raise: ask for $2.00 if you really want $1.00...

Cute but over the top.......2007-09-19

I am an event designer and love making any room beautiful. I thought these pictures were beautiful but possible a little over the top. I don't recommend buying the book. It's wasn't worth paying full price.

Wonderful!.......2007-05-12

I truly am enjoying this book! Preston's style is so inspiring I have shared it with several of my friends. The photos are beautiful and the information he shares with us is very helpful. I will buy all I can of his work. Thank-You Preston for sharing the gift God gave you with us. Sincerly, Sherry

Love this Book!!.......2007-01-30

Customer Reviews:

Mostly promo for high end wedding photographers.......2007-05-13

The book has no real overview, but jumps from the method of one successful wedding photographer to the next, fifteen in all. I was surprised how little insight was provided to digital albums; many of these photographers still shoot film. The albums shown are extremely high end, probably not the best fit for less established photographers. I much preferred "Digital Wedding Album Design Guide" by Kathy Woodford, which is a more nuts and bolts book.

Enjoyable Book.......2007-04-11

As a wedding photographer, I found this book useful in a few ways:

1. it got me started in learning about the album companies out there (the profiles mention what album company each photographer uses and show samples of the albums)

2. it showed samples of some beautiful album layouts (the colors, spreads and types were often original and creative)

3. it is a useful tool in client presentations to show different types of albums and different options of album design

This book doesn't teach you how to make albums, it merely shows you samples of albums, their differences, some of the companies producing them and their potential to add to your bottom line.

Not what I expected.......2006-04-03

This book profiles a number of successful wedding photographers, how they got started, and their styles of work and selling. I did get some helpful tips out of it and got to see some lovely photographs and album pages, but I wanted more how-to tips about planning photographs for and designing wedding albums, with information about the various computer programs available and the companies that sell wedding albums.

Highly Recommended.......2006-01-24

This book was recommended to me by the photographer/designer that developed my website. As a wedding photographer I haven't seen a better book to determine and improve album design. Each segment is written by a different photographer with layout and supplier advice. Very well printed and an invaluable resource.

International Perspective.......2006-01-07

I recently purchased this book since I am trying to pin down the area of Photography that I would like to concentrate on. After looking through the layouts in this book I feel completely inspired. It gives you the resources you need to use the same printers and bookbinders that the serious professionals use. It also shows you amazing ways to lay out an album, that I hadn't even concevied of. The really nice thing is it highlights photographers not only from all over the country but all over the world, thereby giving you a global perspective on what is going on with wedding album design. Excellent book.

The photography in the book was beautiful but the bouquets were not practical for most brides. I did like that flowers were identified with amounts needed.

Very Disappointing.......2005-09-21

I got this book out of the library, along with "Bouquets: A Year of Flowers for the Bride" and the Knot book, and I would have to say, this was by far the least useful. For one thing, there was nothing simple about it-- the arrangements either involved mountains of flowers, or varieties of orchids I had never seen anywhere else, or arrangements that were closer to balancing acts. There is one picture that seemed to have literally hundreds of calla lillies around a doorway. Come on!

Compared to the Bouquets book, which offered a lot of variety and was pretty creative, this just seemed like a lot of lilies & orchids & roses, and compared to the Knot book, it wasn't as practical, cost effective, or even very descriptive. I am not a fan of the Knot website, but surprisingly, I found their flower book the most informative. I would recommend either book over this one.

Not practical for flowershop owners.......2005-09-16

If you look for something practical to give your clients ideas for their wedding this is not the book you are looking for. The flowers in the pictures are not something you commonly find in flowershops, most of them are not even greenhouse flowers. They are simple, garden flowers.

THE Best Digital Wedding Guide !.......2006-04-27

I have been interested in digital wedding photography but couldn't find the right help. I purchased the book and this is it! Ms. Woodford has provided a step-by-step guide that far exceeded my expectations.

This book is NOT for the experienced Photoshop user.......2006-04-09

I was looking at purchasing this book for several months. In the mean time (and a little prior to) I studied and learned Photoshop from reading other books, the internet, and simply using the program. Well, when I finally decided to go ahead and purchase this book I was/am well versed with PS.

This book is WAY to simple in terms of "album design". It doesn't show anything I would call fancy, clever, or even good in designing in PS. It's the very basics when you use PS in the first place. If you already know PS dealing with layer, styles, etc, don't waste your money on this book. On the other hand if you don't know PS I would suggest a book geared strickly towards learning PS because you will get more out of a dedicated book. This book tries to cover digital album design within PS but you really don't gain a whole lot of knowledge. I think out of the entire book the only thing I got from it was a a place to download a film strip template from the author's website. Nuttin' else!

On a more personal note, the designs themselves are rather simple and boring (and I'm not an "out there" kind of guy). I don't want to be to harsh but I think the the designs are ugly. The auther is said to have won a design contest, but I really don't see how....unless of course the designed album was not displayed in this particular book.

In the end, get yourself a dedicated Photoshop book. This "design" book aint that good.

I gave it two stars because it goes step-by-step.

Great Book.......2006-03-24

The book has more of what I expected, it has useful links and will help any wedding photographer to have a guide to create great albums.

It is a must have...

Its easy to follow and full of "down to earth" ideas and solutions.I recomend it to my fellow photographer peers at any level!!!!

A no-nonsense guidebook to Adobe Photoshop techniques for creating beautiful digital albums.......2005-11-12

The Professional Photographer's Digital Wedding Album Design Guide is a no-nonsense guidebook to Adobe Photoshop techniques for creating beautiful digital albums. Chapters cover why template and design programs are unnecessary, how to set up a secure digital workflow with back-up solutions, how to use proof selection software with clients in one's studio, solid design principles, factors that influence a fair price for albums, and more. Avoiding excessively long tutorials, The Professional Photographer's Digital Wedding Album Design Guide is very much a "quick start" reference for producing quality work with proven methods. Highly recommended for professional and amateur digital album designers alike.

I ordered this book because it was touted as a "wedding coloring book", but I wasn't very impressed. I didn't really think the drawings had enough coloring space on them, about half the stuff would be way over a little kids head unless they had been in a million weddings by age 4. I felt some of the stuff was not really wedding related, just thrown in to add an extra page. All in all, very disappointed and felt like I wasted my money!
