' The young bride of ancient Rome wore a garland of orange blossoms in her hair and carried stalks of wheat, other grains or a basket of fruit to her wedding The flowers were symbolic of love in full bloom and fer­ tility while the grain or fruit represented a bountiful harvest for the bride and groom. During the Renaissance,, the bride also carried sheaves of grain along with flowers By th^ eighteenth century, however, the tradition remained for the bride to carry only flowers. Today's bride carries flowers as a symbol of love She decorates her surroundings with flowers and has flowers for her at­ tendants, her mother, the groom's mother and grandmothers The groom and his attendants each wear a flower in the lapel of their jackets For less formal weddings, the bride may carry a small bouquet, a nosegay, a basket of flowers or even a single flower or corsage. Attendants can wear small wrist corsages or flowers pinned to their dresses Some brides use freshly cut flowers, dried flowers or even sheaves of grain mixed with flowers to symbolize the season and the mood of the wedding The bride who carries a bouquet or basket of flowers at a country wedding may decorate her hair or her headpiece w ith a garland of blossoms like her sisters of ancient Rome The more formal bride may carry a larger bouquet or cascade of orchids, roses or other flowers arranged with baby's breath, ferns, lace, net and ribbon Her attendants will carry smaller bouquets chosen to match their dresses or the color scheme A bride can carry flowers of any color and combination available.
