For her Royal Wedding to Prince William, Kate Middleton carried a small bouquet of white, mixed flowers that was in proportion to her size and complemented her delicate, graceful lace wedding dress.

The offical Royal Wedding website describes her wedding flowers as a shield-shaped wired bouquet of myrtle, lily-of-the-valley, sweet William and hyacinth. The bouquet draws on the traditions of flowers of significance for the Royal Family, the Middleton family and on the Language of Flowers.

The flowers’ meanings in the bouquet are:
Lily-of-the-valley — Return of happiness
Sweet William — Gallantry
Hyacinth — Constancy of love
Ivy — Fidelity; marriage; wedded love; friendship; affection
Myrtle — the emblem of marriage; love.
