Opinions on bridesmaid bouquets?

Rosalie, on January 31, 2023 at 9:51 PM Posted in Style and Décor 0 5

Ok, so I've been so focused on wedding attire, decorations, vows, etc, that I kind of forgot about bouquets and flower arrangements. I was brainstorming on what my bouquet should be, I decided that I want baby's breath, roses and ferns tied together with a pale pink ribbon. Then I started thinking about my bridesmaids and got stuck on it.

I cannot decide whether they should be identical to my bouquet or mismatched. The bridesmaids gowns are matching, so I was leaning towards getting all of us identical bouquets because that matches the dresses. But then I started looking at the mismatched ones and those are pretty great.

The bridesmaids say they don't care about this, but I do and I am puzzled. What's your opinion on these pics?

Mismatched?

    I had the bridesmaids carry matching bouquets that were smaller and had more subtle color variations. Maybe bouquets similar to yours but with less roses?

    I had the same as Hannah for my wedding and agree with her idea.


    I feel like the mismatched bouquets idea is a lot like the mismatched bridesmaids dresses idea: you can find *amazing* looking Pinterest photos that show it done in the most tasteful and perfect fashion, but in real life if it’s not executed perfectly by your own vendors/shops, everything ends up looking kind of clunky and cluttered once the pictures come back.

    I definitely prefer matching, especially if the dresses match!

    I usually prefer smaller versions of the bride's bouquets for the bridesmaids. I feel like if the bouquets are too mismatched then it would look too busy in pictures and disorganized and it tends to trigger my OCD big time.

    I decided that I am going to do the identical bridesmaid bouquets for a more polished look. And given that the gowns match, it would look out of place to have mismatched bouquets.
