Bridesmaids Bouquet

According to a few websites baby's breath is a floral symbol of everlasting love.  I was thinking about having my bridesmaids carry a bouquet of them at my January wedding.  I'm wondering if they are appropriate for the season and if they can hold as a bouuet on their own or should I pare them up with another flower like carnations? Which by the way carries a meaning of pure love

    I think baby's breath bouquets are beautiful, especially for a winter wedding.

    Great by themselves... skip the carnations and make sure your florist uses million star babies breath... It is much stronger and prettier... 

    Tulips stand for a declaration of love... might be a nice addition to yours...

    I like baby's breath on its own or not at all. I think carnations don't look great unless there are tons of them.

    I'd go with the baby's breath by itself.   It almost looks like a delicate bouquet of snowflakes!

    I never knew there were different types of baby breath.
