Wedding What do you think of this Bouquet?

[crystalheart1]

I would do it a bit smaller ( less flowers ) and a couple of feathers peeking out. Is it cute or cheesy?

Not a huge fan of fake feathers here, but I AM a huge fan of just the white callas. They are gorgeous...

I don't think I would call it cheesy though. And if it's the only feather touch it would look nice IMO. Just not a look to go overboard with. Is your dress simple or ornate? I think it'd be great with a simple dress.

I personally like the feathers. I think it is very pretty!

I like it without the feathers. FI''s cousin got married a couple weeks ago and she had a bouquet of callas. Its so chic and simple and classy -I love it with the flowers by themselves!

I love the callas, but I would rethink the feathers. They''re in right now, but I think in a few years you might regret them?

I guess I''m the dissenting opinion, because I love the feathers! I think they make a bouquet that is traditional very unique.

I don''t like the feathers OR the cala lillies. But that''s just my personal preference. The lillies it will make a beautiful bouquet -- but I''d leave out the feathers. I don''t really see how feathers and flowers go together.

I had feathers on my bouquet and I loved them! My feathers were full underneath but only peeked out a bit on top. I think it''s a very nice touch.

I think its really beautiful! And isn''t there no such thing as fake feathers?... all feathers are attached to a bird at some point, right?

I love the callas but I''m not crazy about the feathers. I don''t know, the callas make the bouquet simply beautiful, but to me, the feathers are too distracting and make the bouquet look too busy. I''m not sure if that makes sense, and that''s just my opinion.

It depends . . . I can see it with the feathers for a "winter wonderland" themed wedding. I have been to a couple of snowy weddings and think a bouquet like that would have worked perfectly. But for an "ordinary" snowless wedding, I would skip the feathers.

i normally like feathers, but i feel like they are sort of an afterthought in this bouquet......they look a little haphazard. maybe if it was better arranged?

I am not a huge fan of feathers, but I love the flowers themselves, so pretty!

Callas = classic

Feathers = Moulin Rougish

I''ve seen some really cute bouquets and centerpieces with feathers as an accent... but this one IMO isn''t as cute. I had to think about what I didn''t like about it and then I read mimzy''s response and couldn''t agree more. They look as a an add-on and in a way they clash.

Love the flowers (calla lilies are my wedding flower too!)...don''t love the feathers. Sorry!

 

[pocahontas]

Personally, I like simple so I'd stick to just callas like the bouquet in your avatar, which I think is beautiful by the way. However, if you really wanted to use feathers, I'd look at Violet's bouquet as inspiration. It was gorgeous! The feather detail was subtle, but still enough to stand out as a special and unique twist to an otherwise traditional bouquet.

 

[brandy_z28]

I don''t particularly like it but I think it''s a good start. I''d either change the color of the feathers or the color of the flowers. It''s too much white on cream on something in between going on...what are your wedding colors?

 

[Dreamgirl]

I guess it depends on the theme of your wedding on if I like the feathers or not.
