Hold bouquet during ceremony?

Courtney, on March 24, 2019 at 4:05 PM Posted in Wedding Ceremony 0 13
Hi everyone!

So every wedding I’ve been to, the bride hands her bouquet to her MOH and holds hands with the groom during the ceremony however I just saw a wedding where the bride held her bouquet during the whole ceremony.

What are your thoughts, to hold or not to hold the bouquet?

    I went to a wedding where the bride forgot to hand over her bouquet until about halfway through. The entire time I was thinking “it’s odd that she’s holding her bouquet.” It’s not for me, but it’s whatever makes the bride feel comfortable.

    I personally wouldnt hold my flowers for the ceremony. I would hand them off.
    Personally its to much fumbling around, you cant hold your fiances hands and what about when it comes to the rings?
    Seems like a better idea to just pass them off

    I think I held mine until we went to do the ring exchange. I think I'm going to do that this time around too. I get nervous in front of a lot of people, so I don't want my husband to have to hold my clammy hands the whole time lol.

    I'll hand mine off because otherwise I would be fidget-y about it I think. I need to hold FH's hands to steady myself, lol.

    I plan to pass my bouquet off to my MOH. My fiance and I will be writing our own vows and I found cute little vow books on Etsy that we will use when it comes time to exchange vows. I definitely want to hold FH's hand!

    I'm not holding mine, my MOH will. I'll be holding my fiance's hands.

    I personally rather not hold it. I am going to be reading my own vows and doing a hand fasting unity ceremony, so I need my hands free. Plus even if I wasn’t doing that, the pastor or officiant usually have the bride and groom hold hands. Just seems awkward and uncomfortable for the bride to hold her bouquet.
