Thoughts on baby's breath bouquets?

If it goes with everything then I ...LOVE... So easy and inexpensive and pretty!

I like baby's breath on it's own. Queen Anne's Lace is an alternative.

I do not like baby's breath when it mixed with other flowers. I waffle between thinking funeral and new baby.

It would tie into the decor (our centerpieces are lanterns with baby's breath tucked in around the bottom of them). I love the simple elegance of the look of a baby's breath bouquet. I just didn't know if people would think they look like we were being cheap and didn't want to pay for "real" flowers..

I think they look beautiful and don't look cheap. Babys breath is a highly underrated flower because it is seen as a "filler" flower and I think it only looks cheap when mixed with other flowers because it seems so insignificant.

I'm thinking of doing the same thing! LOVE the look, and like Abby W. said, inexpensive!!!!

I like them! In fact, I may do it myself. I searched pinterest...take a look.

I love babys breath! I think it is so light and airy. We are using it as one of the main flowers in our bouquets, with the bridesmaids being mainly that, hydrangeas and a couple small roses.

Ya I was thinking of making them myself with my sister the day/night before...really it shouldn't be that hard...just wrap the bundle with floral tape then with ribbon in the wedding colors...

Don't know how easy it is to DIY but I love the look. Baby's breath and carnations look really high-end when they're bundled in big bunches on their own, IMO.

Check out this tablescape. Obviously not budget, and they used baby's breath in the centerpiece. This was my original inspiration for our brunch/garden wedding, until we compromised on a nighttime/city wedding. But I'm totally doing this for our vow renewal in 25 years. lol.

I love the look of baby's breath as a bouquet. I'd definitely try some test runs first.

I think I'm going to go buy a bundle of baby's breath this weekend and see how long it takes to make the bouquet...I'll post pics in this thread of what mine looks like for feed back..

Great idea, looks really nice

My friend used them as her centerpieces and they were gorgeous.

Amy S. I agree that they are a bit plain...that's where the ribbon wrapped around the stems is coming into it, to add color.
