thank you
tell your floral story
You’ve chosen your dress, the rings, the venue – and of
course, your man! But have you chosen your flowers
yet?
Flowers are one of your few opportunities to have
something affordable, yet truly custom-made; something
gorgeous that communicates the essence of your
personality to the world.
However, you will need to explore the right style of
floristry to complement your individuality. Within these
pages you will find the perfect look for you, courtesy of
Australia’s abundant floral design talent.
Welcome to Tesselaar’s first edition of Fleuresse:The
Wedding Flowers Style Guide 2015!
Most of the bridal flowers celebrated in this free
magazine were selected from a wide pool of Australia’s
most talented working wedding florists who submitted
their images into our famous annual “Top Gun” Wedding
Flowers Competitions.
We aim to make your wedding flower decisions easier
as we bring you this visual feast of blooms by season,
colour, style, trend and designers.

Australia’s Best Florists Blossom In Tesselaar’s
Wedding Flower Contest
In the autumn of 2011 when we
started a competition for Australian
wedding florists, everyone at
Tesselaars agreed it was a cool idea but nobody expected what happened
next.
We put it out there and, from day
one, it went completely gangbusters.
The florists of Australia took to the
contest with massive enthusiasm, to
win some cool prizes like iPads and
as a way to showcase their worldclass floral design work to each
other and to potential customers –
Australian brides-to-be.
Since successfully running a second
time in the spring of 2011, the
Tesselaars “Top Gun” Wedding
Flowers Competition has run
annually each spring, organically
growing bigger every year until it is
now the biggest wedding floristry
competition in the world.
3
The idea is wedding florists send
in photographs of their real floral
design work which we then promote
to our social media community and
to targeted Internet users who have
identified themselves as brides-tobe or interested in bridal flowers.
Each competition attracts about
half a million unique viewers and
the crème de la crème of Australian
wedding flower design professionals
as entrants.
The caliber of entrants into the
contest means we have collated
an unsurpassed collection
of contemporary Australian
wedding floristry. In line with our
commitment to promoting Aussie
florists, we have created this digital
magazine featuring some amazing
florals submitted over half a decade.
Curated and designed by
respected Adelaide wedding
florist, Kyla Helgeson, herself
a former competition finalist,
this magazine leverages the
photographs submitted to the
Top Gun contest to take you on
a floral journey through popular
trends, colours and seasonal
options.
These are not just any old
wedding flowers. This is a wedding
floral style guide that has great
credibility due to its input from
the very top rung of Australian
wedding floral designers. There
just isn’t another resource like it.
Enjoy!
“Each competition attracts about half a million unique viewers
and the crème de la crème of Australian wedding flower design
professionals as entrants.”

Five competitions and thousands of entries
later, Tesselaars have promoted Australia’s
most dazzling wedding floristry to hundreds
of thousands of Australian brides-to-be (and
flower lovers in general) via Facebook, Google
& other channels.
We’ve taken some stand out moments from
these five competitions as a launch pad to
inspire your imagination.

“We enjoyed looking at all the wonderful talent of the
many florists that entered, and we also got a buzz
out of seeing some of our bouquets on the Facebook
page.Thank you for giving us the opportunity to showcase some of our work.”
“Over the course of the last
4 years, the competition has
become the most exciting,
inclusive and fabulous event
in the Australian wedding
floristry calendar.”

-- Denise’s Flower Studio - Linda Lindsay
A wonderful side-effect of the competition is that it has helped to foster a lively
and supportive community of Australian florists and flower lovers around the
country, giving everybody involved a chance to enjoy the many colours and
creations of floral design.
For wedding florists entering the competition the experience has been fun,
exciting and rewarding. Some florists have given accounts of staying up through
the night to watch the voting, others kept religiously checking the Tesselaars
Facebook page every few hours to see and count the votes.

“I love flowers! Showcasing some of our
work is a big deal to a small, relatively new
business. Being selected as a finalist was a
very big highlight for 2014”.

Poppy Lane Flowers By Design
“I was very excited to be named finalist
in the competition as being a one woman
small business, I do not have budgets
for marketing and PR, so being given
such exposure in a free competition was
absolutely fabulous.What really felt great
was the lovely comments to accompany the
entry from peers in the industry.”
-- Katharina Martin, Flower Nation
“2014 was the first year I entered and
surprisingly I was nominated as a finalist
in the flowers to carry category. I shared
the facebook post with my clients, friends
and family and we checked it every day to
watch the votes racking up.The winner took
the lead on the first day and although I
closed in towards the end, I didn’t quite get
enough votes to win! Considering the large
number of entries I was very happy with
second place...”
--Sara Meredith,
Sara Meredith Designer Florist “The bride requested wild and rustic but
with bright vibrant colours. I loved the bright
colours and the long flowing ribbons we
used for this bouquet. The part about the
day I loved the most was the photographer
catching this picture with a cow in the
background which epitomized the rustic
country feel of all the flowers including the
bridal bouquet for the whole day. If I could
do a bouquet like this every week I would
be in heaven. I love the organic flow and
free spirit of it!”

If you desire a relaxed look for your ceremony and reception
venue, then the “Rustic Vintage” style could well be perfect
for your wedding. So what next?
Hit the second hand shops! Vintage shopping is a great place
to start, try and find old suitcases, vintage glasses, vases,
wooden crates, boxes, tins, buckets and even tea cups. Ask
family and friends to help by collecting and recycling jam jars.
Don’t have time to go hunting? Event stylists and florists may
have similar pieces that you can hire to create this look.
Once all the rustic vintage items have been sourced then
just add beautiful, soft feminine and romantic blooms. Perfect
examples from the above images include David Austin roses,
peonies, ranunculi, poppies, hyacinth, astilbe, tuber roses,
lavender, andromeda, daisies, sweet peas, gypsophila, freesias,
scabiosa pods, and natural native foliage.
Bouquets are relaxed and created with that ‘just picked from
the garden’ look. Remember accents such as hessian, twine,
grosgrain ribbon, lace and heirloom brooches to embellish
and you are well on your way to creating the Rustic Vintage
Style.

“Modern Glamour” is a look that will definitely leave an
impression on all who attend your wedding. Best suited to
the bride who loves bling; it is big, beautiful and will certainly
leave guests with their jaws on the floor!
For the bridal party, embellishments can be added to
bouquets, diamantes can be wrapped around the stems or
individual crystals scattered throughout the blooms. Natural
stems are wrapped in thick luxurious satin or organza
ribbons.
In the reception space, this look is defined by tables adorned
with huge floral arrangements, dripping crystals, diamantes,
chandeliers, mirror glass and lots and lots of candles.
Not for the DIY bride or the bride on a budget. Modern
Glamour on a large scale is best left to the professionals, a
wedding planner, stylist and experienced florist. Many tireless
hours planning and creating are needed for this look and also
many, many stems of flowers!
Its signature floral style is flowers on mass: orchids, roses,
tulips, peonies, calla lilies, hydrangea, carnations, gladioli,
luscious berries, foliage and carpet runners of rose petals.
A style that will really leave an impression!

Elegance and old-world charm collide in the “Country
French” inspired wedding style. An intimate garden setting
with cottage flowers and plants is the ideal place for the
ceremony.
Beautiful linens, vintage lace and thick opulent ribbons
create a luxurious style.Vessels are more refined than in the
“Rustic Vintage” style, with blue and white ceramics, classic
urns, hand-painted china and crystal cut glass vases. Mix and
match vessels allow for relaxed styling.
Country style bouquets are relaxed and informal, with
many textures and colours coming into play. A bit more
refined than the ‘just picked look’ of Rustic Vintage styling,
blooms have been carefully chosen and arranged to give that
effortless, elegant look that is a little more polished.
Bountiful, pretty, feminine blooms in a rich colour palette
of purples and plums teamed with classic French white.
Romantic feminine florals for Country French styling include
hydrangea, David Austin and garden roses, lilac, ranunculi,
Queen Anne’s lace, blushing bride, jonquils and silver suede.
Farmhouse or barn weddings with rolling hills and vineyards
set the scene for your guests to sit back with and glass
of French champagne and take in the view. Instead of a
traditional wedding cake, try cheese wheels as a quirky,
alternative way to end the meal (teamed perfectly with a
glass of wine).

For the free-spirited bride, you can’t go past the “Bohemian”
style. It is bright, colourful, fun, artistic and the best part is:
there are no rules! With no rules to conform to, you and
your floral stylist have complete freedom to create a look
that is unique and memorable.
Unusual, free form blooms would be a great choice for the
Bohemian style, like the bright yellow of billy button balls,
succulents or giant lotus pods and bright coral peonies.
Snapdragons, poppies and dahlias in their array of fabulous
shapes and sizes add a pop of colour. Textured accent
flowers and branches add interest.
Bespoke handmade flower headpieces made with fresh
textured blooms and foliage are big in the Bohemian style.
Perhaps a vintage wedding dress from the 60’s or 70’s teamed
with a bright flower crown to dazzle.
Elements can include the unconventional and up-cycled
eclectic or vintage pieces. Brightly labelled tin cans and
bottles are quirky and interesting. Free flowing floral tablerunners are a great choice for receptions. But unlike “Rustic
Vintage” florals, the look is less refined and makes more of a
bold statement.

An eternally popular wedding floral style, “Classic Clean”
inspired floral design is feminine, traditional and romantic.
Colours are often pastel, with whites, ivories, pinks, purples,
apricots and lemons, but they can also be bold with reds,
oranges and yellows.
Beautifully formed, round domes for the bridal posies,
finished elegantly and simply with satin, organza or grosgrain
ribbon. Round, full or hedge guest table centrepieces signify
this look for the perfect “Princess Bride”.
Flower girls are too cute with rose pomander floral balls.
Bridesmaids can choose classic wrist corsages, which are
great for the budget!
Buttonholes are kept simple and clean too, just a singular,
perfect rose bloom finished with lush green or soft silver
foliage. All the classic blooms are here, roses, David Austin
roses, lisianthus, freesias, peonies, hydrangea and ranunculi.
Classic Clean inspired floral design is classic, simple design - a
style that will never go out of fashion.

wild textured
A huge trend at the moment is lush, green foliage wielded
en masse as hanging features or table runners. Berries, pods,
ferns, vines and succulents just to name a few. This organic
mix of colours and textures combines to create a look that
is inspired by nature, bringing a little bit of outdoors into the
indoor reception space.
There is so much variety in foliage now that it has become
the focus of many arrangements instead of the filler. From
soft silver suedes, to rough prickly sea holly - native foliage
too - the combinations can create quite an interesting palette.
Succulents themselves come in so many interesting shapes
and sizes, a bouquet combination of those mixed with foliage
and maybe just a few blooms is a great choice for the bride
who wants something a little different.
Succulents and foliage are perfect for the men who shy
away from wearing a flower on the big day. “Wild Textured”
inspired florals are a great neutral look for the bride and
groom who want to move away from the traditional feminine
romantic blooms.
Add twine, hessian and timber for a rustic organic look that is
just divine!

When choosing your wedding flowers you do first have to
consult with the lady who knows it all, Mother Nature. She
will decide whether your dream wedding blooms are available
at the time of your wedding. Floral supply has come a long
way over the years and many blooms are able to be imported
from overseas and sent to every corner of Australia, arriving
in water, fresh and in beautiful condition. Keeping Australian
seasons in mind, here is a quick reference of your favourite
wedding blooms and when they are in season.

Wedding flowers can be created in any
colour of the rainbow. For many brides,
white still is a hugely popular wedding
flower choice, especially for the bridal
bouquet, as it is classic, timeless and
elegant. The colour palette for the
wedding usually starts with the choice of
bridesmaids dresses and then this plays an
important role when choosing blooms to
either complement or contrast with the
dress colour. Pinks, apricots and purples,
in all their range of hues from soft pastels
to bright hot tones continue to be a great
option for wedding floral blooms with so
many gorgeous varieties in those colour
examples to choose from. Look at the

bridal
bouquets
modern textured bouquets
Bridal bouquets come in an array of
designs, flower varieties, sizes, shapes,
colours and finishes. Depending on the
personality of the bride and groom and
wedding style, there is a bouquet to suit
everyone’s taste. Here are just a few
of the most popular and fabulous bridal
bouquets for inspiration……
Modern Textured Bouquets
For the bride who wants something a little
different, a little edgy, a modern textured
bouquet would fit this brief. These
bouquets are only limited by imagination.
Amazingly colourful or soft muted tones,
these bouquets include everything:
succulents, flowers, foliage and even
edibles such as herbs or artichoke can
be used in amazing combinations. These
‘wow factor’ creations will definitely leave
your guests with something to remember
and talk about!
35
36
bridal
bouquets
garden posy bouquets
The Garden Posy Bouquet
This has to be the most popular look at
the moment. Brides are loving relaxed,
unstructured bouquets that give the sense
of being just picked from the garden.
Beautiful seasonal blooms are often used:
David Austin roses, dahlias, tulips, sweet
peas, peonies, ranunculi, jonquils, paper
daisies to name just a few. Foliage is often
lush, textured and whimsical, like wheat,
natives, amaranthus and ivy. They can be
varied in size, from small petite posies
to overflowing wild, cascading bouquets.
Sometimes full of blooms, others with only
a few blooms but more foliage. Finishes
can include twine, hessian, lace and thick,
luxurious ribbons. A gorgeous natural
look perfect for a pretty garden setting or
rustic vineyard.
37
38
bridal
bouquets
classic round bouquets
The Classic Round Bouquet
The classic round posy bouquet is
timeless and loved by brides. It is
simple, clean and elegant in its styling.
Suitable to complement any style of
gown, it looks fantastic when carried
by the bridal party. All your beautiful
classic blooms are here: large-head,
elegant roses, spray roses, freesias,
lisianthus, carnations, gypsophila, sweet
peas, tulips, hyacinth and gardenias
and orchids. The foliage can be green:
camellia or ivy berry or gorgeous soft
silver suede foliage.
Traditionally, classic round bouquets
use a single variety of flowers like roses
or only a few mixed varieties framed
with foliage, but a modern take on the
design includes grouping individual
varieties together to create a bouquet
that is pleasing and interesting to the
eye. The colour palette can vary from
elegant white to soft pastels to bright
tonal hues, with stems often bound in
satin ribbon and secured with classic
pearl pins.

buttonholes
Gone are the days of the traditional white
rose buttonhole secured with a pearl pin.
These days, buttonholes are little works of
art. Skilfully crafted by wedding florists and
made from an array of flowers, foliage and
textures, think billy-balls, berries, succulents
and natives. Finishes include rustic twine or
gorgeous, elegant ribbons. Pops of colour
are also popular for buttonholes. Magnetic
buttonholes are perfect for the guys on the
day - so easy to attach. Traditionally, they
are worn on the left lapel but if you want to
try something different why not opt for a
bow-tie buttonhole, like this example from
Bodaflora Designs.

set the scene
ceremony
Ceremony florals really set the scene
and have come such a long way in recent
times. More than just a simple scatter of
rose petals, some brides choose to go all
out and create a truly magical setting in
which to wed.
Popular floral designs for ceremonies
include: aisle flowers, feature
arrangements, signing-table flowers and
huge statement pieces like floral arches
and wreath hearts. When these large
installations are adorned with garden
blooms and cascading foliage, they become
a real hero piece and focal point for the
ceremony.
43
44
set the scene
ceremony
Many other elements can also be adorned
with florals for the wedding ceremony,
such as a garden swing, perfect for bride
and groom photographs after saying “I do”.
A direction sign, for guests to find the
ceremony location, can be decorated with
florals and even a ladder can be
can be transformed into a pretty floral
feature.
45
46
wow your guests!
reception
The use of florals for a reception space
can really transform a room. They can
take a space from being quite plain to
something about which, upon entering,
guests will stop and think “wow”. They
give a room a sense of style, warmth and
purpose; their colour and pretty softness
can really set the scene for the love and
celebrations to come.
The choices with wedding reception
florals are limitless. They can utilise any
flower variety and colour - and the
scope of possible designs is just as huge.
Most commonly, guest tables, the bridal
table, the wedding cake and perhaps the
entrance or gift table have flowers as a
feature.
47
48
wow your guests!
reception
Guest tables can feature anything from a
small posy of flowers in a simple vase or
jar, to huge, tall floral spheres or long floral
hedges that extend the length of the table
and incorporate many blooms.
A popular current design trend takes the
luxury one step further: hanging floral
installations, which are breathtaking in
their creation and abundance of flowers
and foliages.
49
50
floral trends
Just like with fashion, flower trends are everchanging and evolving. Two current, stand-out
trends in wedding floral design are the hanging
floral installation that is transforming venue
spaces everywhere and the beautifully feminine
floral crown.

installations
Hanging floral installations are an amazing
statement piece for your wedding reception
space at either an indoor venue or marquee
space. Designs vary from an informal garden
look with lots of different textures, foliage and
pretty, colourful blooms scattered throughout,
to clean, modern designs of one flower variety
en masse. With the many blooms that are
needed to create such a look and the labour
required to execute the designs, these huge,
beautiful statement pieces are usually reserved
for brides with a larger budget who want to
create that ‘wow’ look.

floral crowns
No longer reserved for the flower girl, floral
crowns are becoming a beautiful way for brides
to dress up their wedding hairstyle. They
are often very textured with a divine mix of
flowers and foliage, creating a soft, romantic,
relaxed and feminine look. The look can be
created in any colour tone, from bright hues to
soft pastels.
It can serve as a pretty alternative for the
bridesmaids also, who may choose to have a
floral crown instead of a traditional bouquet.
Or a great way to dress up and have fun at the
hens party or kitchen tea!
