8 inch bridal bouquet?

Is an 8 inch bouquet (8in tall and 8 inch wide) too small for a bridal bouquet? I'm ordering mine from FTD.com, and the one that I really like (orange roses, orange carnations and purple mums) is 8x8. My mother thinks it may be too small though....but then again, I have no idea what is 'normal'.Your opinions?

    I would say it depends on your size and dress style. If you a petit girl with a simple dress I think you would be fine. My room mate keeps telling me my bouquet should be bigger (I don't have one yet but I have been playing with silk flowers and making my own bouquet etc) but for me I want something small and simple... It is your day so if it is what will make you happy- do it! = )

    yea...not so much petite. I'm 5'9 and a size 12/13, but my dress is very ornate, so I am thinking maybe it'll balance out. But still...it seems awfully small...

    I'm not a small girl and my dress is ornate, but I'm having a smaller bouquet. Remember, bigger bouquet = heavier to carry.
