Bridal bouquet size

Danielle, on September 30, 2021 at 9:58 PM Posted in Etiquette and Advice 2 2
I bought my wedding dress and its gorgeous for me! Lots of lace and beading, a form fitting sheath dress that I want to show off. Im 5'4", medium athletic frame, about size 8 in dresses. My question is I'm considering buying my bouquet off etsy and cant decide on either an 8 or 10 inch nosegay bouquet. What would be a good size to show off the dress yet not look too small or too big for the bouquet and have it look balanced?

    Your smart to get your bouquet to your exact specs. I’m 5’1 and a size 2 street size and I specifically pointed to a bouquet the florist showed me and said “this size please”, and told them I didn’t want to be hiding behind a huge bouquet. What I got on my Wedding day was about a 12 or 13 inches across bouquet and I didn’t have time to mess with it so I lived with it. Be specific, my bouquet was adorned with eucalyptus shooting out from the sides, which I wanted but they added too much and it was way to bulky for my body frame. By ordering yours ahead of time you’ll have more control with the final size and look. I would experiment with some flowers. Get some flowers from a craft store and stand in front of a mirror and decide what looks best.
