The tussy mussy is known as a floral bouquet holder. Dubbed with an interesting name this wedding necessity is currently gaining popularity even though it was introduced nearly three centuries ago. Tussy mussies were historically given as gifts, especially when a male suitor would call on a young woman. During these times, every flower had a special meaning, and ladies referred to a book called the “Tussy Dictionary” to decipher the message. These days, the Tussy Mussy is often created with a vicrotian/floral design and are kept as keepsakes after the wedding ceremony.
