Options for bouquets of tulips
The natural grace and simplicity of the shape of this plant allow you to create unusually beautiful compositions. Succulent leaves, bright flowers - bouquets of them do not need additional decorations. Plants look great in the form of a one-color composition or a combination of several colors. It is better for a romantic bride to opt for a white wedding bouquet, and a passionate girl may choose the option of yellow and red flowers. Someone chooses mono-bouquets, others prefer tulips surrounded by other plants - roses, orchids, lilies of the valley.
Mono-bouquet of white or purple tulips
Even an inexperienced florist can create a composition using plain tulips. Monobouquets perfectly express their divinely beautiful shape and color. White flowers are a symbol of purity, innocence of the bride. They will be in perfect harmony with her white dress and give tenderness to the image. No floristic devices needed to make the composition.
Purple tulips are a symbol of fidelity. There is an opinion that the richer the color, the stronger the love of the young. The bride’s bouquet, made using purple or lilac flowers, looks bright, expressive, attracts attention, stands out in wedding photos, fits perfectly into the pictures. Photos of newlyweds will be picturesque, lively, pleasing to the eye.
To create a composition, you need an odd number of tulips. Choose flowers with large, tightly closed buds of the correct form, long elastic stems and fresh leaves. To get a beautiful bouquet, there must be at least twenty pieces. Fold the flowers so that the central ones protrude slightly. On the outer edge of the composition, you can insert leaves of bergrass. Tie your masterpiece from the bottom with a wide colored ribbon or lace, trim the stems with a knife.
Bouquet of tulips and roses
In the market, these flowers are sold separately, but if you wish, you can successfully combine them. Tulips take on a particularly solemn appearance in combination with roses. Among brides pink flowers are in demand. Take soft pink tulips and add dark red roses to them, dilute the colors with greens. Against the background of white roses, red-orange or delicate pink tulips will look chic. Use roses as the basis of the composition, and let tulips act as accents (they should be evenly distributed among roses).
The combination of tulips and irises
A simple but original and sophisticated bouquet will be obtained with a combination of no more than three different shades. When composing the composition, keep in mind that plants with smaller corollas and pale shades should be placed closer to the edge, and large and bright flowers should be left in the center. In our case, in the center there will be irises, and on the edges - tulips of soft colors. Perfectly complement this composition of tropical orchids, decorative sunflowers.
DIY tulip bouquets
Tulips have long stems, this allows you to independently create beautiful wedding bouquets of any shape - round, cascading, linear.

In addition to flowers with the familiar corolla shape, there are many more varieties that amaze with their sophistication. Lilies colored tulips in the form of petals resemble lilies, terry - like lush fragrant peonies, fringed - at the edges as if decorated with fluffy braid. There are also parrots, which with their variegated petals-feathers are similar to small parrots. Using all this variety of shapes and colors, you will create a bridal bouquet pleasing to the eye for the bride.
