I think it will depend on the type of flower you're carrying. </p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/how-many-flowers-are-in-a-typical-brides-bouquet#post-65022 Thu, 03 Jul 2008 21:41:16 +0000 TallBride 65022@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>Like missm said, it depends on you and your wedding. 25 flowers may not sound like alot but will there be fillers? that can make it much bigger. also, are they colorful. ALOT of color may turn out to be too much... </p> <p>&nbsp;</p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/how-many-flowers-are-in-a-typical-brides-bouquet#post-64872 Thu, 03 Jul 2008 14:25:52 +0000 missm 64872@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>It depends on the look you're going for.&nbsp; Some bouquets are larger and some are smaller - overall, it should be in proportion to you and the dress. </p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/how-many-flowers-are-in-a-typical-brides-bouquet#post-64860 Thu, 03 Jul 2008 14:08:08 +0000 MissStargazerLily 64860@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>my bouquet is 8 dark pink roses and two stems of stargazers (usually 1-2 flowers per stem and two buds) and babies breath and some greenery. I didn't want a HUGE bouquet because flowers are freaken heavy! </p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/how-many-flowers-are-in-a-typical-brides-bouquet#post-64840 Thu, 03 Jul 2008 13:28:31 +0000 rebecca 64840@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>I agree with anna -- that is a good number. When I made my FSIL's bridal bouquet, I used a bunch of roses (so 25 stems), 3 stems of hydrangea, baby's breath, and greenery and it was a pretty large bouquet. For her bridesmaids' bouquets, I used about 10 roses + greenery.</p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/how-many-flowers-are-in-a-typical-brides-bouquet#post-64835 Thu, 03 Jul 2008 13:22:52 +0000 anna 64835@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>that's actually a good&nbsp;number.&nbsp; i loved my bouquet!&nbsp;&nbsp;it had 35 white roses with lilies of the valley scattered on the perimeter.&nbsp; keep in mind though - it gets pretty heavy carrying it around all day.&nbsp; here's a picture:</p> <p><img src="http://x2c.xanga.com/780c55f528431194407722/b150024521.jpg" /></p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/how-many-flowers-are-in-a-typical-brides-bouquet#post-64829 Thu, 03 Jul 2008 13:14:19 +0000 mpark46 64829@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>Just curious to know how many flowers are in a typical brides bouquet. My florist quoted somewhere between 24-30 flowers (roses &amp; orchids) but that seems pretty small to me for the actual bridal bouquet. It seems more appropriate for the bridesmaids bouquets. </p> <p>Can anyone give me an idea? Pictures for reference would be a great help!</p>
