However with hundreds of varieties which ones should you choose? We have made a list of popular flowers used for haathphools and we’ll discuss which ones are perfect for your bridal look.
Using baby’s breath for haathphools is definitely one of the more popular choices made by brides today. These dainty white flowers go with almost any outfit and keep the haathphools looking traditional yet fresh. These are perfect for a classic bride.
For a romantic bride, choosing rose haathphools is an absolutely perfect choice and give n the variety of colours available you can make sure it perfectly matches your outfit too. This is also for a bride who wants to try something different.
We can’t talk about flowers at an Indian wedding without mentioning mogra. It has a beautiful sweet fragrance so don’t wear it if you’re sensitive to fragrances but it’s another classic Indian pick for a bride who want to keep it traditional.
We love how this bride has mixed mogra with pretty pink aster flowers.
For a bride who is a maximalist and wants to go all out check out these pretty multicoloured haathphool designs using a variety of flowers. They are perfect for a mehndi or a haldi ceremony.
We saved our most favorite for last. With rich hues of blue and indigo, orchids haathphools pop against Indian outfits and are another great choice for brides who want to add some drama, contrast and flare. They are real show stoppers!
