March 15, 2011— -- When Kate Middleton walks down the aisle at Westminster Abbey we are sure to find a lavish bouquet in her hands.

Princess Diana chose a cascading bouquet that stood nearly 4 feet tall, while Sarah Ferguson, Duchess of York, opted for a more modest 'S' shaped bouquet.

So what would be the perfect arrangement of flowers for this future princess?

With both Prince William and Kate Middleton's personal styles and passions, coupled with royal traditions in mind, Organic Bouquet floral designer Randy Lowe has rounded up some ideal choices for the royal arrangements.

White lilies are at the top of the list. They are said to be Kate Middleton's favorite flower. The white lily symbolizes purity, modesty, virginity and majesty.

Another leading contender? White daffodils. It is the national symbol of Wales and represents Prince William's status as heir to the British throne.

"Every traditional royal wedding bouquet will have a sprig of myrtle," says Organic Bouquet's CEO Robert McLaughlin, "a tradition that dates back to Queen Victoria's wedding in 1840."
