 Luxurious, beautiful, arranged bouquet

Luxury bouquets - potential and purpose

Luxury bouquets

The term “luxury bouquet” has no fixed definition. People use it to express their wish to find a unique, high-quality floral piece and experience—usually a bouquet characterised by an exquisite or sophisticated arrangement, great quality, and fresh flowers, or a bouquet made from precious or exotic flowers. The purpose of such a bouquet typically is to be used as a gift or home décor, to celebrate special events or festivities.

Types of extraordinary bouquets

  • Bouquets of artistic floristry
  • Jewellery bouquets
  • Local fresh bouquets
  • Classical luxury bouquets, rich
  • Luxury bouquets of exotic flowers
  • Hand-picked meadow flowers
  • Luxury bouquets of flowers, jewellery bouquets
  • Arranged silver bouquets for holidays and festivities

As you will see, our tips were deliberately chosen to include high-quality floristry art, hand-picked wild flowers, or even jewellery pieces. There are different ways of classifying bouquets of fresh-cut flowers. Here we approach luxury bouquets from the broader perspective of ensuring a quality floral experience in various unique forms.

Purpose and seasonality

Our tips don’t take into account the bouquet’s specific form-defining purpose. If you’re interested in a home décor bouquet, you’ll probably be looking for different qualities than when you’re choosing a gift. The selection process is also affected by your interior style, vases, and the desired mood.

A special bouquet style is typically required for the purposes of gifting or celebrating various festivities. For example, a wedding bouquet may favour a romantic style as opposed to a birthday bouquet whose playfulness and liveliness suit the occasion better. Always consider what you wish to express with your bouquet and who it is for.

Seasonality of the flowers used is another factor, especially if you plan to be picking them at your local gardener’s.

Tips on luxury bouquets

Luxurious bouquet of artistic floristry

Tip 1 - Bouquet of artistic floristry


ESTIMATED PRICE: FROM 8.000 CZK

A bouquet is always more than just a collection of individual flowers. The specific combination of colours, shapes, textures, and smells creates a charming experience.

Find the right flower shop or florist and purchase an extraordinary bouquet. At the moment, the chief trend in artistic floristry is unusual combinations of colours and shapes, as well as bouquets including elements of wilderness, fruits, or vegetables. The style is dictated both by maximalism and minimalism, inspired by the Japanese Ikebana and story-telling.

Floristry is a creative and technical skill. In Czechia and all over the world, there are florists who have elevated this to an art and develop their own arrangement styles. Floristry artists respected worldwide include the Belgian Thierry Boutemy, New Yorker Lewis Miller, Japanese Makoto Azuma, German George Lersch or the British Jane Packer.

And as for Czech florists,  there are Přemysl Hytych, Mario Wild (@mariowildflowers), or Marie Bittnerová.

“Luxurious” is also a fitting term for bouquets of graceful jewellery flowers, handmade in Czechia. They keep the beauty and part of the emotions contained in fresh flowers, but also add timeless craftsmanship. When placed in a vase they’ll make for elegant home décor for the rest of your life.

GIYOU offers small and large silver bouquets as well as bouquets of golden flowers.

You can have your jewellery flowers bound or leave them loose, and present them in person like you would fresh-picked meadow flowers, in a gift box, or a beautiful vase you can purchase with your flowers.

Tip 3 - Luxury bouquet of fresh local flowers

ESTIMATED PRICE: FROM 1.000 CZK

Another good option when choosing an extraordinary bouquet is flowers from shops and farms which don’t import African or Asian flowers via the Dutch auction but instead work with local, fresh, or even environmentally-friendly flowers. Such a bouquet will gain well-deserved recognition. Drawbacks include seasonality and possible difficulties finding such a flower shop or farm in your area.

Consider picking a beautiful bouquet of local flowers, e.g. in the Vysočina region at Floratorium, around at Efemér, or Central Bohemia at Kveteto (@kvetetofarm).

Tip 4 - Luxury bouquets, classical and rich

ESTIMATED PRICE: FROM 5.000 CZK

Choose a luxury bouquet of fresh-cut flowers in standard flower shops or e-shops. Consider the occasion, range of flower species, and available types of arrangements.

Besides freshness, this kind of bouquet boasts an air of luxury thanks to special types of arrangement, flower species, or richness - the number of flowers used. In this regard, impressive bouquets of 50 or even 150 flowers are a common choice for captivating luxury bouquets.

In Czechia, good flower vendors include Cool Flowers or Urban Bloom.

And if you happen to be in London, definitely visit our favourite flower shops, e.g. Moyses Stevens, McQueens or Aoyama Flower Market (a favourite Japanese flower shop with a store in London).

Tip 5 - Luxury bouquet of exotic flowers

ESTIMATED PRICE: FROM 5.000 CZK

Venture into the world of exotic flowers and enrich your bouquet with extravagant colours, extraordinary shapes, and unique smells.

Focus on such exotic flowers as the strelitzia, heliconia, red ginger, lotus, passionflower, protea, frangipani, calla, banana plant, and of course orchids. Use them to compile an exotic luxury bouquet, or mix a few of these flowers into a unique luxury arrangement. Luxurious tropical flowers and the graceful beauty of water flowers will give your bouquet a special charm.

Searching for the flowers might be somewhat involved but you should be able to get exotic flowers in Czech flower shops and e-shops or have them ordered.

Tip 6 - Hand-picked bouquet of meadow flowers

ESTIMATED PRICE: FROM 5.000 CZK

Isn’t this the very definition of luxury? Once the right season rolls around, go to the nearest meadow or forest, pick a bunch of wild flowers, and compile them into a hand-picked luxury bouquet. Of course, don’t pick flowers in city parks, national parks, or any other protected zones and never pluck protected flowers. Unfortunately, some species of meadow flowers don’t last very long when placed in a vase.

We recommend taking a pair of scissors or a small knife with you. Meadow bouquets benefit from spontaneity, so don’t be too careful about arranging them. Instead, compile them as you pick them. You can also add various species of grass or cereals; they also look beautiful even on their own. Or spice it up with a twig plucked from a bush or tree. Bind your bouquet with a piece of natural bast or string.

Yes, we know, you’re too busy for all that. But that’s just it. Your effort and time give the bouquet a special meaning, guaranteed to be appreciated by the person receiving the result of your work.

Tip 7 - Luxury combination of flowers and jewellery

And if you happen to favour both fresh-cut and jewellery flowers and would like to create an exceptional gift or décor, you can simply combine the two into a single bouquet. How luxurious the outcome is depends entirely up to you. When it comes to jewellery flowers, you can pick a single silver flower or a large golden bouquet. The same goes when choosing the number and species of the fresh flowers.

Combine floristry and jewellery with the fleeting beauty of flowers and the constancy of flowers made of precious materials, and create a unique work of floral art. Browse jewellery flowers of silver and gold flowers.
