Dried bridesmaid bouquets are fast becoming a staple for stylish weddings across Melbourne — and for good reason. With their natural textures, soft tones and lasting beauty, dried florals are perfect for bridal parties who want elegant bouquets that won’t wilt by the end of the day. At Milla Rose, we specialise in creating dried bridesmaid bouquets Melbourne couples love — designed to complement your wedding theme, colour palette and bridal look.
Here’s our guide to matching your dried bridesmaid bouquets with your wedding theme.
Consider your overall wedding style
Whether your day is minimalist and modern, romantic and rustic, or bold and boho — your dried bridesmaid bouquets should tie in seamlessly. Soft, neutral-toned bouquets with bunny tails, white ruscus and bleached ferns suit an airy, coastal aesthetic. For vintage or romantic styles, think warm dusty pinks, toffee tones and pops of preserved roses. A bohemian theme works beautifully with textured palms, cascading amaranthus and earthy ochres.
Match the bouquet palette to your bridesmaid dresses
When selecting dried bridesmaid bouquets, consider the colour and cut of your bridesmaid dresses. In Melbourne, muted tones like sage, blush and terracotta remain popular year-round, and pair perfectly with natural dried florals. Rich tones like burgundy or emerald work well with contrast — think soft neutrals or warm caramel blooms to create depth. Milla Rose bouquets are designed with balance in mind, bringing harmony to your bridal party look.
Highlight popular Melbourne colour palettes
Melbourne weddings are known for embracing modern tones with a timeless twist. Some popular combinations we love designing for include:
Terracotta + neutrals – perfect for rustic or winery weddings
Blush + cream – romantic and soft for spring and summer weddings
Olive Green + ivory – organic and fresh, ideal for garden weddings
Mocha mousse + earthy accents – a trending palette for 2025 weddings
Each palette brings out different textures in dried flowers, making your bouquets feel unique and refined.
Feature Australian native dried flowers
Dried bridesmaid bouquets that feature Australian native blooms bring a beautiful local touch to your day. At Milla Rose, we often include preserved banksias, billy buttons, and eucalyptus — adding structure, symbolism and earthy charm. Natives also tie in beautifully with both coastal and country wedding themes across Victoria.
They’re also hardy and long-lasting, making them perfect for outdoor celebrations in Melbourne’s ever-changing weather.
Coordinate with the dried bridal bouquet in Melbourne
To keep everything cohesive, your dried bridesmaid bouquets should reflect elements of the bridal bouquet — without being identical. Whether that’s sharing a colour thread, a hero flower, or a textural element, Milla Rose designs each bouquet to complement the whole floral story of your day.
