Bracelets for bridesmaids

The role of the witness at the wedding requires to be perfect to the tips of the nails. The bridesmaid's bracelet is not just an accessory, it is the most important part of the image, which emphasizes the special status of its owner at the celebration.

A wedding is always like a major theatrical performance, in which all events are strictly subordinate to traditions and have some special meaning. Modern weddings are also subject to these traditions, but recently there has been an active borrowing of some elements of Western culture. From there, the idea came to replace the outdated, bulky “Honorary Witness” ribbons with elegant bracelets on the wrist and boutonniere in the jacket pocket.

The history of bracelets for girlfriends of the bride goes back to a very distant past. For example, there is evidence that in ancient Rome, this accessory played a very important role at every wedding. In the traditions of that time there was a procession of the bride from the house of her parents to the house of the future spouse. In addition to the bride, her closest friends took part in this procession. All the girls were wearing wedding dresses. This was done so that in the event of a bride kidnapping it was difficult to determine which of the girls needed to be taken away. Here is where the bracelet of flowers came to the fore. All the witnesses decorated their hands with them - this is the only thing that distinguished them from the bride. In addition, at the wedding of that time at least 10 witnesses and witnesses had to be present, otherwise it was considered illegal.

During this period, bride kidnapping for ransom was something mundane and frightening. Bridesmaids risked themselves, also putting on wedding dresses. Many believed that a bracelet made of white, delicate flowers would protect against harm, save it from attack - so it turned into a talisman "for good luck".

Today brides bracelets have less meaning, they are not something supernatural or irreplaceable. Now it is just an original decorative element that emphasizes the special status of its owner at the celebration.

There are several variants of the name of such jewelry, which can be built in a small rating. TOP most common name choices:

• Corsage on hand. This name came from ancient Rome, where it was decided to make jewelry on the principle of corsage. It was made of several separate pieces of leather and fastened with the help of lacing. This bracelet fits snugly to the arm, does not dangle or untie. In addition, to such a dense basis, you can more reliably attach decorative elements.
• Boutonniere bridesmaids. In fact, a boutonniere is something completely different. This name is used by analogy with the male boutonniere, which is put into the jacket pocket of the male witness.
• The simplest and most successful name is obvious. - Bridesmaid bracelet.

For the bracelet of the witness, several factors are very important that can influence the choice of materials. The first thing that is important to pay attention to is the aesthetic component. It should be perfect, beautiful, elegant. The second important factor is the resistance to mechanical damage. This means that it must be durable, because the wedding, sometimes, lasts more than 10 hours.

Ornaments made from fresh flowers look very noble and rich. Making a choice in favor of such a product should be remembered that the flowers rather quickly fade without water. If the wedding is held in the summer, then this decoration is hardly enough to visit the registrar. In the cooler seasons, it can be enough up to the restaurant, but there it is likely that it will quickly become unusable. In addition, not all florists are able to make such a product durable. Often, the flowers quickly fall out and get lost, so you need to contact a reliable, proven specialist. The most durable will be a floral bracelet made from chrysanthemums or roses, and a product made from tulips will die almost immediately.

Artificial flowers - This is an excellent option for a long wedding: they do not wilt, they are easily and firmly fixed to the base, therefore they are resistant to mechanical stress. Owners of good taste with ease will make beautiful compositions for jewelry. The bride can easily assemble such a bracelet for her girlfriends on her own.

Foamiran - This is a modern material for needlework. It is very soft and malleable, similar to polymer clay. With it, you can create unique fantasy products. For example, you can make a bracelet in the form of a single large flower or a complex composition of their bouquet of small flowers, berries and even insects. Working with Foamiran requires fantasy, good practice and perseverance. Products from it have an incredibly attractive appearance, they are very beautiful and similar to living. However, there is one drawback in the bracelet of this material. Foamiran is a rather fragile substance, so you need to be extremely careful in the process of wearing.

The most durable product can rightly be considered a bracelet made of satin ribbons. At first glance it may seem that such a product will be too simple, homely and not original, but this is not at all the case. Thanks to the kanzashi technique popular with modern needlewomen, a product made of satin ribbons can acquire an incredible and intricate shape. Modern bright materials will create an ornament in any color and any shape. If this technique is too complicated, then it is quite possible to make simpler jewelry from ribbons and decorate them with rhinestones, stones, pearls or beads.

Bracelets that are richly decorated with lace flowers or complex lace compositions are also very popular. On such bracelets, large brooches covered with Swarovski stones, crystal, zirconium or other sparkling stones will look very appropriate.

In recent years, the organization of weddings, united by a common color scheme, has been in special demand. As a rule, it is some bright color that contrasts perfectly with the white dress of the bride. Products of this color can decorate literally everything that surrounds the young on this day: bridesmaids' dresses, ties of the groom's friends, flowers and napkins on the tables, bows on the chairs. This color can be a mandatory part of the dress code for guests, it can be present as a decor for the bride's dress and groom's dress. It is not surprising that the boutonnieres of the witnesses are subject to this trend.

For several years in a row lilac color is popular with almost all designers. Today he is not at the peak of his fame, but still enjoys incredible demand. Weddings decorated with different shades of lilac are found almost everywhere. The composition of the bridesmaid's bracelet in this color scheme can include both live flowers and made by needlewomen. It can be spring field violets, lilacs, lupins, chrysanthemums, large and small roses and much more. However, this color gradually goes out of fashion, so you should think about whether to pay attention to it.

Trend last summer – This is a wedding with a rich blue decor. Blue chrysanthemums, rare blue roses and rather expensive, but very original blue orchids were in special demand in this color range. In nature, it is quite difficult to find flowers of a rich blue color, so needlewomen often come to rescue girls. Blue color gives room for fantasy. With it, you can create unique compositions of felt or foamiran, which will have no analogues.

Wedding in juicy green colors - This is a solution for very brave people. A bridal bouquet at such a wedding can be decorated not only with flowers, but also with more unexpected components: glossy green apples, leaves and ribbons. For the bracelet of the witness, green satin and silk, green and light green peonies, delicate lilies of the valley with their large leaves, white chamomile chrysanthemums with green hearts are appropriate. In addition, you can find rare selection of green orchids, which will be the perfect decoration for any bracelet.

It is difficult to even describe this complex deep color, and even more so to observe a single shade in the design of the entire wedding.. That is why the wedding, combined with this color scheme will look completely original, very rich and will not be forgotten by any of the guests for many years. In our latitudes, only two plants can be found whose flowers are suitable for such a celebration: peony and calla lilies. Bracelets with barely opened buds of peonies will look slightly cumbersome, but very unusual, and bracelets of callas will be expensive and elegant. In the elite flower shops it is also possible to order orchids or roses artificially colored in this color. But, as a rule, this color looks unnatural and dim.

Another trend of this summer - this is a rich contrast of bright red with white. A wedding in this style is perhaps one of the simplest tasks for florists, because in nature there are millions of white and red flowers. It is a great pleasure to create a bracelet for bridesmaids in this color scheme, because here you can show imagination and combine just an incredible amount of colors.

Wedding - This is a place where there is something insignificant. Everything is extremely important here, everything here “works” to ensure that the image of the bride and groom is perfect. Therefore, it is so important that honorary witnesses look harmonious. In this situation, the way turns out to be a witness’s boutonniere and a witness’s bracelet. If they are performed in the same style, it practically does not matter what their owners are dressed in and how much their clothes “harmonize” with each other. This factor is very important at those weddings, where the images of the witnesses are not thought out under the general theme of the celebration, but independently of it. In such a situation, it is best to order jewelry from the same florist who makes the bridal bouquet. He will select flowers that will perfectly harmonize with the bouquet, emphasize its beauty and create a common style.

A wedding looks very unusual, with an emphasis on carrot color. Long dresses, transformers druzhek, the appearance of which can be easily changed by throwing the strap or tying it on the belt, should ideally fit a different type of figures of the bride's witnesses. This rather versatile color is suitable for girls with different skin types and hair color. White lace bracelets with carrot-colored gerberas complement the images of the witnesses. All this underlines the overall style of the wedding, which can be traced in the images of the newlyweds.

Bridesmaids' dresses in the colors of a blue, bottomless ocean lit by the bright rays of the summer sun can turn a wedding into the most exquisite celebration. Perfectly chosen outfits, taking into account the characteristics of such different shapes and taste preferences of girlfriends, make each of them unique, elegant, gorgeous.They are so different and beautiful, they do not completely eclipse the bride, on the contrary, subtly emphasize her bright and gentle image. In this important role is played by the bracelets of the witnesses, made from flowers identical to those that are the basis of the bridal bouquet. Together, they create the illusion of tender mermaids emerging from the ocean depths to fill this world with happiness.

The emerald color is so self-sufficient that it does not need any bright accessories. A bracelet made of small white flowers, for example, daisies or lilies of the valley, would be very appropriate. You can also complement the image and decoration of the contrasting burgundy peony bud. If the bride has many friends and not everyone likes such a bright style, they will look very original in emerald and calm beige dresses. Such an army of witnesses certainly will not allow the abduction of the bride from the wedding and turn the celebration into a noisy cheerful holiday.

Bordeaux - the color of young wine. This deep tone emphasizes the natural beauty of young girls, brings charm and sophistication to their image. A dress of this color can be safely supplemented with large gold accessories, for example, a belt, brooch or bracelet. The thin bracelet of the witness with one large flower made of transparent ribbon and supplemented with several thin ribbons looks very elegant.

Therefore, everything in her image, including jewelry, should be aimed at solving this problem. Therefore, the bracelet plays such an important role in the image of the witness and in the image of the bride herself.
