The Knot Editors' Absolute Favorite Wedding Bouquets
As a wedding editor, picking a favorite wedding bouquet feels like a parent picking a favorite child—I know you're not supposed to have one, except that you kind of do. While I hope, for my self-esteem's sake, that my parents keep their golden child a secret from me (but I guessing it's my little bro who had a sweet taco bar at his wedding), I got The Knot team to spill their secrets and dish on their absolute favorite wedding bouquets.
But here's the thing, the team sees hundreds of wedding bouquets on the reg filled with every popular wedding flower under the sun, so we're picky. Not just any old bouquet will do. Because of that, some of these expertly crafted wedding bouquets might surprise you. Whether or not you saw these hot picks coming, we know you're about to be obsessed with them.

A Wedding Editor's Top Wedding Bouquets
I'm not ashamed to admit it—I am obsessed with weddings and my perfect chill night at home in Brooklyn involves flipping through the pages of the latest issue of The Knot Magazine or hosting drinks for the many talented wedding pros this job has connected me to. Between my prior career as a wedding planner and all the friends I've been a bridesmaid for, I've attended more than 40 weddings (naturally, I lost count on the exact number ages ago). In short, I live and breathe weddings as the Senior Weddings Editor at The Knot. So there was no way I was going to be able to pick just one favorite wedding bouquet. Here is an in-depth look at all the top wedding bouquets that continue to take my breath away.
24. Modern Protea Wedding Flower Bouquet

25. Eclectic Yellow Craspedia Flower Bouquet for Wedding
Many minimalist couples are leaning into wedding bouquets that only utilize one variety of flower. For this fun wedding, the floral designer crafted bridesmaid bouquets out of vibrant yellow craspedia blooms.
26. Dreamy Peach Lisianthus Fresh Flower Wedding Bouquet
Lisianthus can sometimes be mistaken for garden roses because the petals for both blooms have such a similar ruffled quality to them. This wedding bouquet is made up entirely of peach lisianthus and I am absolutely obsessed.

While all peonies are beautiful, I am especially partial to Coral Charm peonies. The way the bride's floral designer paired them with bright yellow tulips is stunning.
31. Superb Wedding Flower Bouquet With Orchids, Roses and Ranunculus
Orchids are often used in traditional and glam arrangements, but the way they were incorporated into these romantic wedding bouquets stands out to me. The wedding bouquets seamlessly blend orchids, dahlias, ranunculus, delphinium, scabiosa and peonies—talk about an all-star cast.
32. Tropical-Meets-Boho Bridal Wedding Bouquet
This bride's tropical wedding bouquet is an absolute winner. Dried grasses are normally associated with boho arrangements, but I am a fan of how this floral designer layered them in with orchids and anthurium to create a tropical design.
33. Exquisite Lavender Rose Wedding Bouquet With Baby's Breath
Purple can be a tough wedding color to get right. But this bouquet is a masterclass in how to effectively infuse purple into a beautiful wedding bouquet.

If you're a fan of orchid wedding bouquets you are going to absolutely love this wedding bouquet. How amazing is the patterned look of the orchid petals?
38. Amazing Jewel-Tone Boho Bridal Bouquet
I am picky about the use of scabiosa pods in wedding bouquets, but this is an example of a subtle inclusion done right. The pods add a boho, relaxed feel to this bouquet which includes chrysanthemums and carnations.
39. Wonderful Fuchsia Orchid and Peony Wedding Bouquet for Bride
The interplay between these fuchsia peonies and the hints of pink in the orchids seen here is mesmerizing. While the flowers used here are classic and traditional, there's nothing plain or pedestrian about this stunning bouquet.
40. Colorful Wedding Bouquet With Orange Roses and Iridescent Anthurium
Orange roses and marigolds paired with lavender carnations and iridescent painted anthurium? Talk about a fun and funky combo. This design is unexpected in the very best way.
41. Tropical Wedding Bouquet With Birds of Paradise
I'm loving the drama in this bold wedding bouquet. Not only are the Birds of Paradise, peonies and orchids really beautiful, but the multicolored pom poms also add a fun note to the design.
42. Charming Rose and Sweet Pea Wedding Bouquet
I love sweet peas—they're delicate, romantic and fragrant. The all-white sweet pea blooms in this bouquet complement the roses, butterfly ranunculus and daffodils nicely.
43. Dramatic Red Dahlia Bridesmaid Bouquet
Red is the color of love and I, for one, am feeling the love from this dahlia bridesmaid bouquet. Trailing leafy vines are a nice finishing touch to this design.

Calling all couples who want to channel a "pretty in pink" feel with their wedding bouquet. Zinnias are an unexpected addition to this cascading bouquet that add a flirty feel to the otherwise preppy design.
45. Elegant Peony, Lisianthus and Sweet Pea Bridal Wedding Bouquet
If your heart doesn't skip a beat when you look at this wedding bouquet then I've got questions for you. The contrast of hot pink peonies with stark white sweet peas is stunning.

You don't need to use fresh flowers in order to have an amazing wedding bouquet. Don't believe me? Check out this cascading greenery wedding bouquet.
48. Unexpected Fall Wedding Bouquet With Ranunculus
When someone talks about fall wedding colors, chances are your mind goes to warm shades of yellow and orange. Well, here's proof that you don't have to limit yourself when choosing a fall wedding color palette. I love how this autumn bride's wedding bouquet incorporates bright white and mauve.
49. Dazzling Wildflower Wedding Bouquet
Here's the thing—wildflower is an umbrella term used for a lot of wedding flowers. So you can have a wildflower wedding bouquet with a variety of different blooms, which is why so many couples love this style and the flexibility it affords. Wax flowers, green berries, amaranthus, cosmos and anemones were all used in this arrangement.
50. Romantic Lavender Rose and Clematis Bride Wedding Bouquet
This is purple done right and it's everything. This wedding bouquet is one of my favorites because of the effortless way in which classic blooms like roses are paired with more eclectic varieties like clematis.
51. Fresh Lily and Eucalyptus Wedding Bouquet for Groom
Eucalyptus is often used in rustic flower arrangements, but I love how the floral designer creatively incorporated the greenery into this elegant rose and lily wedding bouquet.
52. Ethereal Peach Garden Rose Wedding Bouquet
I'm weak—these peach garden roses are the stuff of dreams. Alstroemeria and lisianthus round out the design beautifully.
53. Dreamy Wedding Bouquet With Butterfly Ranunculus and Sweet Pea
If it still isn't clear, I am obsessed with butterfly ranunculus and sweet peas—Both blooms are so delicate and beautiful.
54. Garden-Inspired Rose and Lisianthus Wedding Bouquet
Oftentimes rose bouquets are tight and compact. But this one is a favorite of mine because of how loose and organic it is. Vines of greenery add nicely to the arrangement's loose look.
55. Dazzling Colorful Bouquet With Dahlia, Scabiosa and Ranunculus Blooms
If you aren't familiar with them, scabiosa are the burgundy flowers seen here that have an almost prickly look to them. Because dahlias and ranunculus are so smooth and symmetrical, the addition of scabiosa here makes the design feel less rigid.
