Wildflower
What It Is: A variety of types, colors, and textures of cultivated wildflowers — such as blue mountain thistle, miniature dianthus, heather, sedum, lisianthus, celosia, and eucalyptus (shown) — grouped together to appear randomly picked and gathered. Perfect for a casual affair, the bouquets are often wrapped with patterned or plaid ribbon.

What to Know: It may seem like a DIY option, but it’s tough to get this look right, so leave it to a pro. Still, if you’re undaunted, harvest flowers the day before and let them soak up water overnight.
