Features of choosing a bouquet
As a rule, you want to make a set of accessories non-standard and amaze the guests with a dress, a veil and a bridal bouquet. Wedding flowers are chosen as carefully as all other accessories. They must certainly be in harmony with the bride's outfit and be not only luxurious, but also symbolic. Each type of flower has its own meaning and is collected in a bouquet with a special meaning. Therefore, the bride values her wedding bouquet so much and sometimes does not want to part with it for the sake of tradition.

The hand does not rise to throw into the crowd of unmarried girlfriends a masterpiece of floristry, which for so long and painstakingly chose and assembled for the most important day. The creation of an understudy bouquet for the newlywed is becoming relevant. It is needed just in order to observe all traditions, to give one of the girlfriends a chance to get married soon and to keep the cherished wedding bouquet intact.

Assigning a duplicated bouquet
The idea to create a second bouquet for the newlywed was born thanks to the development of two popular wedding traditions. The first came to us from the West, when the bride at the end of the celebration has to part with the bouquet, leaving it to her unmarried friends. The second we owe to the Old Church Slavonic ritual, according to which it is customary to dry a bouquet from a wedding and keep it in the name of family happiness.According to the old belief, the newlywed should keep all the accessories from the wedding as a talisman.

To implement these two traditions at a wedding, just one bouquet is not enough. Therefore, a duplicate is needed. Even if the bride does not plan to keep flowers after the celebration, a replacement bouquet will not be superfluous. After all, the original bouquet may not reach the girlfriends, scattering in flight. Or it will turn out to be too heavy and inadvertently injure one of the guests. The replacement bouquet is made light and durable, but no less beautiful. The lucky lady who has caught it will be happy to keep it as a tribute to tradition. You can do without additional bouquets, but it is simply necessary in such cases:
- the original bouquet has a complex structure, like a bag of flowers or a basket;
- the base of the bouquet is weighted with decorations;
- the flower arrangement is loosely folded and weakly fixed;

- a bouquet can be dangerous to others;
- flowers in the composition can stain guests' clothes with pollen;
- in the cold season, when fresh flowers may not be preserved until the end of the celebration;
- if the newlyweds have planned to celebrate the wedding for more than one day;

The bride does not have to go everywhere with a fake bouquet. Ensuring its safety can be "entrusted" to the bridesmaid or witness. Then he will always be at hand and will not burden the newlywed in the process of celebration. However, the composition for the replacement bouquet must be identical or completely duplicate the original.

Before ordering a duplicate from a florist or making it yourself, you need to decide what it should be. Taking into account the necessary materials, the preparation of the flower accessory begins. This usually takes into account the value of the shade of flowers and the symbolism of each type of vegetation in the bouquet. For example, if you want to demonstrate the sincerity of feelings, roses will do, and white lilies will speak eloquently about innocence.

Substitute bouquets can be as follows.
- An exact copy of the original flower arrangement. This is the simplest and most convenient solution. When ordering, you only need to stipulate that the bouquet is made in the amount of two absolutely identical copies.
- An artificial analogue of the "living" original. This option is ideal for a winter wedding or a long outdoor photo shoot during the cold season. Fresh flowers will remain for the ceremony at the registry office and celebration at the restaurant. A duplicate will fly to the guests, and fresh flowers will amuse the eyes of the newlywed a little more.
- A mini-copy of the bride's bouquet. An excellent solution if the main bouquet is too massive or heavy to throw, but you want to keep the similarity as much as possible.
