Gloves or mittens?

Meg, on November 30, 2018 at 10:50 AM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 25

My wedding is in less than a month!! Since it's in winter, I want to get gloves or mittens for myself and my maids for picture taking outside. (Our venue is a beautiful hilly golf course, and I'm dead set on outside, hopefully snowy, pics!) I asked my MOH but she isn't being helpful. We also all have faux fur wraps, theirs dark grey and mine ivory.

Would you rather wear gloves or mittens to hold your bouquet? I found this adorable picture of a bride with gloves.

    I think gloves are easier for grabbing stuff but mittens would look SO cute in pictures!!

    I just thought about this since our wedding is in a week. We're doing blanket scarves, so I don't think gloves would look great. Cause of the exposed arm. It would look good with coats, though! Just an opinion!

    We could do either fingerless or regular mittens... Both come in the grey and ivory.

    What our wraps look like, for reference. Mine covers my shoulders, though.

    I totally agree with this! It may be easier and you may have more mobility in gloves, but mittens are adorable and will likely keep your hands warmer!

    Gloves are easier, but mittens are cuter for pics... id probably do mittens since all they need to hold in the photos are bouquets which can be easily picked up with mittens.

    My vote is for gloves. I personally don’t like mittens and unlike the others here, I don’t find them cute.

    Gloves, I hate mittens. I feel like I couldn’t even pick up a bouquet off the ground in a mitten....so it’s certainly not something I’d ever use again after the photo op, if that’s something you’re considering.

    You could try convertibles though maybe? Like fingerless gloves that have a fold over mitten cover

    This is going to be such a beautiful look!! I love the colors of the wraps!! I like both gloves and mittens but I think gloves may be better!! For one you’ll have better grip, and I really love the look in your inspiration photo!

    I think it depends on the gloves/mittens! I prefer gloves because some photos I've found makes it look like everyone is wearing massive oven mitts haha! After seeing your wraps, I almost feel like long elegant gloves could work too.

    Fluffy, soft, cozy gloves get my vote. I'd also make sure any guys have gloves too. Not only do you want them to be warm too, but the pictures would look odd if some have them and others don't
