Do You Hold Bouquet in All Photos?

Sophie, on March 5, 2020 at 8:03 PM Posted in Wedding Reception 0 16

I'm just starting to think about the photos I'll take with my mom, sister, bridesmaids, etc. Obviously in normal pictures we put our arm around each other...did you do that in your wedding pictures, or did you just stand next to each other each holding your flowers? Or did you do group shots holding them, and then put them down for shots of just you and one person? Please advise! Thank you!

    I held my bouquet! I honestly didn’t know the answer to this though and had to go look at my pictures 😂 there’s no right or wrong!

    Haha thank you!! It's definitely not something you'd usually think about but then bam all of a sudden I've been thinking about it for an hour and can't wrap my head around it! Thanks for your help!

    I held mine in all the staged photos. Not like the ones we took at the reception, but yes in all the family/bridal party photos. Here’s some of both to help you picture it Smiley smileDo You Hold Bouquet in All Photos? 1

    I didn’t hold a bouquet in all photos but I felt like I held it for a lot of the day overall

    If you’re having a photographer, they should direct you for poses with and maybe without flowers. I’m planning on holding my flowers for majority of my posed photos

    I'm sure I'll be holding my single flower in most photos. Although in the ones with me and my fiance, I'll be having my arms around him in some fashion

    Good to know, yeah I really just didn't know how long you hold it for in general! Thanks!

    That's a good idea, I hadn't thought about that but yeah my photographer will probably tell us what to do. Thanks!

    That's what I was thinking, like probably hold them in photos with BMs but then not in photos with FH so we can have our arms around each other and such!

    Happy to help! Also with pictures with my husband I held it in some of them but not all... I actually like the photos where I have it better though. It didn’t affect our ability to have our arms around each other or anything, and it was just an extra pop of “bridal” feel haha. Some of the photos later on without my bouquet I actually wished I had it. That’s just me though!

    This is BEYOND helpful!! Seeing the photos is so much easier than imagining it in my head. Now I think I'll hold it in couples portraits too! Thanks a million!

    We didn't have them in all of our photos. In my husband and I's photos by ourselves I'd say we had them in 75% of the photos. With my bridesmaids we had them in probably 80% and the photos with both sides of the bridal party we only took one photos when we were holding our bouquets and then we took funny photos with the groomsmen where we did not have them.

    There is no right or wrong way to do it. I went on Pinterest and found photos that I wanted to recreate for my wedding and wrote them down. I gave them to my photographer and she made them happen.
