Where to put the bouquet

Alanah, on August 15, 2017 at 00:31 Posted in Wedding ceremony 0 13
I don't plan on having a bridal party so who would I pass my bouquet to? Should I just not have one? I have no idea where I'd put it during the ceremony.

    Ball bouquet's are apparently very in right now. You can have it attach to a bracelet so you don't even need to pass it to someone. My friend did this and it came in handy!

    I think it would be meaningful to have your mom to hold onto your bouquet for you or if that's not an option maybe have a vase near you without water in it to put it.

    The other brides had some great ideas like giving the bouquet to your mom or putting it in a vase on the signing table! I don't necessarily think it think it would look weird not to carry one but it does help give you something to do with your hands. Are you walking yourself down the aisle or with a family member? If a family member is walking you, then you can link arms but if you're walking yourself it does help to have something to carry so your arms aren't just swinging by your side. And the bouquet looks nice for pics later too! Totally up to you though!

    Could do a corsage instead? or put it on the signing table, or give to your mother.

    I would maybe hand it to your mum as she will most likely be sitting in the front row. Putting it on the signing table is another good idea. As someone else said though, if you feel like not having a bouquet is your best option then that is ok too.

    As the others have said you can hand off to someone sitting down, you will have the signing table there as well you could also just set it on the table or the ground if you really want a bouquet. However it is your wedding so there is no reason you have to have one if you don't want one. You could have nothing or do a wrist corsage if you want some flowers but don't want to worry about carrying anything. Do what works for you and what makes you happy!

    Yes there will be flower girls but I was thinking of having them carry their own mini bouquet and of course my parents will also be there.. I suppose I could pass it to my mother.. Do you think it would look odd if I didn't carry one at all though?

    Who will be in the front row in terms of closest family and friends? I'd pick someone there (a mom, sibling, friend) to hand your bouquet off to during those parts of the ceremony.

    You could also skip the bouquet if you want! I took more pictures alone and together with my husband without my bouquet than I did holding my bouquet, so if you don't think you'll miss it you probably won't!
