Anyone have this (or a similar) debate? I can’t decide between real flowers versus a DIY pearl bouquet. What made you decide the way you did? Do any of you who went with a pearl bouquet have real photos from your wedding? I’m curious as to what they look like in photos. Thanks!

I love the pearls! But, I also adore all things offbeat, unique and unusual, so if it suits your personality, do it! (It’ll also PROBABLY be cheaper than real flowers!)

I like flowers much better, but that’s because I like traditional things in a wedding.

I actually had pearls in my bouquet. Maybe you could do something like that? I’m sure they could put more than what I had in there as accents for you? Good luck!

Thank you so much for your responses! I am both traditional and off-beat in many ways, so I that’s why I am struggling with this decision.
@letsgobowlingx: That’s a great idea! I guess I could incorporate them no matter what. Your bouquet was beautiful!
Anyone else have input or photos of their bouquets?

@nativedesires: Those are so beautiful!Thank you for sharing them!
I wonder, how would it look for me with a pearl bouquet and all the other girls with flowers. I attached a couple of pictures for comparison. I was also thinking of doing different-colored pearls for the BMs. Thoughts?

In real life it would’t have that blue. I am not very good at paint haha.

Just a tip that I found when I held the pearl bouquet in my wedding dress it didn’t show up well, white on white
