What is too much

Mia and Brandon, on July 30, 2021 at 5:52 PM Posted in Wedding Attire 1 35
A common theme iv realized with me and my friends are we have two different idea's of what is too much which is showing as more with me picking what I want to wear for my wedding they both thought a dress with tights (sense it was winter) and simple jewlery was too much when we was in school sense they wanted me to help pick out their outfits sense I would help our other female friends which I would actually add alot more accessories and more flashy clothes with them I kept it more simple because most they wore was jeans t-shirt and occasionally earings me on the other hand always preferred more flashy jewlery and clothes when choosing what bouquet i want one of them says the one I loved the most was way too detailed for her

What is too much 1
I want something like this but with rose gold and shorten the hanging pearls and put them in a different pattern sense i am only 5 foot 2 inches i think it is the perfect amount of detail especially considering the dress ill be wearing is going to be even more detailed and a simple bouquet would look off in the amount of lace ruffles and pearls my dress will have which she also thought was too much dont get me wrong I do think things can be too much in my opinion like too many bright colors and colors that don't mix well together too much different elements and so on I think as long as you follow a theme tightly and moderate how much of each element you have and balance it properly it is hard for it too be too much

    No matter what, people don’t have the same style. What one person thinks is too much, might be exactly the right amount. As long as your outfits goes with the formality of your event (as in don’t wear jeans for a black tie event), do whatever you want!

    I tend to agree with your friend that the bouquet you posted is very over the top. But everyone has their own opinion.

    Hi if that is what you want then you get it I have the same problem I have a custom made bridal bouquet with jewels and satin flowers. But my daughter's and my decor of the day dismissed it too,telling me no it's too much. So I bought another one with some yellow in it ,but believe me I will use the other in my wedding. Do what you love

    I bet it looks absolutely fabulous I believe this specific friend may be acting this way out of jealousy shes the only one in the group who hasn't dated which shes tends to try and be center of attention which she won't be at my wedding shes gotten upset in the past if i wear something nicer than her shes of my grooms maids and her dress and bouquet is gonna be simple compared to mine and only my maid of honor is going to be having more elegant dress and a more elegant bouquet gets first picks on hair accessories and jewelry which made her act strange my maid of honor has been extremely nice and supportive and she has put our friend in her place when needed and has constantly said its my wedding I do what I want she'll help me with anything she can and her only request was her dress covering her shoulders and me letting her see my dress when im done and put it on when its finished for the first time so she can share that special moment with me

    I actually think that simple bouquets look great with over the top dresses. But as long as you’re happy during your wedding, that’s all that matters

    "Too much" is a very personal judgement call. Something might look too much if say the dress code is black tie but the event is held in a school gymnasium. That doesn't sound like your issue though, just a conflict of opinions on style.


    My style is classic and sometimes understated (a-line skirts and bright colors with simple jewelery). If I wore what you are planning on wearing then it would feel like too much for me, personally, but I would never try to impose my style on someone else.

    Enjoy your finery and pearls! So long as you and your partner are happy with the attire and style of the wedding then that is the most important thing.
