Shape of your wedding bouquet 花球的形狀

1) Hand-tied 手綁露腳
- a bouquet of 20 stems
- wrapped with ribbon or decorate with leaves
- perfect for causal / country style wedding :)

注意:別要只照顧花的多少,太多花和花腳都有一定的重量,手會很累。況且中國人的身材個子比西方人小,迷你版會比較與新娘子合比例。

2) tear-drop shape 水滴形
- in flower foam holder
- petite size , light weight , easy to carry
- for brides who likes cute little petite size

3) classical waterfall shape 長拖尾
- in a flower foam holder
- significantly long showers of leaves
- for long dress
- for tall and elegant feel

Flowers in Hong Kong are mostly come from China, Kumming. As you can see in the picture, a huge production and wholesales of flowers are taken place everyday. Flowers from China is comparable cheaper. They are being transported by truck to Hong Kong everyday and the airfreight cost has been saved.

香港的鮮花市場是由昆明入口的。昆明的花市場處理很多鮮花,供應香港及國內,以及出口到歐洲及日本。昆明的鮮花相對地較為便宜,可以由陸路運輸省下空運費。亦因為外資投資到昆明市場,所以品質得以提升。不單只有一般人常見的玫瑰是由昆明出產的,其它的品種植亦因外地市場的需要而種植。
