Bouquets for a Cottagecore Wedding: Flowers for a Fairytale

Chloe Tan

If you have ever been on Pinterest since the 2020's, you're bound to come across the term "Cottagecore", which is a design style that celebrates the rustic and traditional elements.

Basking in the sunlight, picnics by the lake, and billowy dresses in a tulip field... In a world of hustle and bustle, the Cottagecore aesthetic is a calm reminder to slow down and enjoy the little cozy moments of simpler times. Some are even going so far as to call it a form of escapism, but we think it's the perfect inspiration for a fairytale wedding straight out of a Monet painting.


If the perfect wedding you envision is one that is quiet, intimate and timeless, you're on the right page.

1. Cottagecore essentials

To understand the cottagecore style, we are going to break it down into its colour palette: white, cream, tan, pink and muted warm tones. Although there are variations of the palette including browns and greens, it would not be Cottagecore if it does not have the floral hues.

2. Handheld bouquets


On the big day, walking down the isle would be one of the most memorable moments for the bride. Aside from the glam and the wedding dress, holding the perfect bouquet is cherry on top for an iconic moment. We suggest our Posy and Luxe Pink bouquet for a timeless and soft take on the Cottagecore aesthetic.
