Oversized Bouquets: Into It or Over It?

This final trend is a pin-spiration vs. practicality showdown! Massive oversized bouquets look stunning in pictures, but in real life they've got to be heavy!!! From giant single blooms to huge cascading bouquets, fantastic floral bouquets have seriously swung back in popularity. 💐 How do you feel...

    Not at all! Oversized bouquets even se cascade bouquets take away from the dress. Your bouquet should never be the spotlight, the spotlight should be you & your dress. Just my thought & words of my florist.

    Over it! I want to be able to see the bride's dress, not just 10% of it!

    Nope. Loved them at first but after seeing SO MANY just this year I’m scaling mine back and opting for all white classic and proportioned.

    Your bouquet shouldn't outweigh you.

    Nope. I honestly hate it. It draws to much attention to the flowers and not enough on the bride.

    I don't really like these. When I saw this picture I thought: "the florist must have made a killing off her."

    I like when they cascade but it's not something I would do

    Over it. I don't want my flowers to be center of attention.

    I'm over it. I feel like my bouquet should compliment me not over power me.

    I love them!! I’m getting a cascading bouquet. It’s not like every pic I take will be w/ flowers in my hand lol I’m paying good money for beautiful flowers just like my beautiful dress. I really can’t wait to see mine!

    I'm personally over this trend. It hides your dress

    I think it's pretty, but idk if it's practical or worth the expense.

    I was never into it. It kind of defeats the purpose.of a gorgeous dress because everyone will be looking ar.your bouquet. It should be something that people see first, it should be your dress THEN your flowers.

    I was never into them. I've seen some beautiful photos, but how do you fit down the aisle with those things?! And they totally hide the dress!

    I am into the oversized bouquet trend. Large arrangements are always eye catching. A bride is entitled to carry as many embellishments that tie the wedding together as desired.

    No. She looks like she's carrying a bush!

    Into it as long as it is tasteful! Mine is gorgeous long cascading and looks great against my dress! Some can look like too much but some can also be very beautiful
