Small BM bouquets

I am making my own bouquets and I had bought some silk white daisies and some silk mum looking flowers. I was going to tie four white daisies together and use the mums to bulk up the bouquets, but I can't get the smaller flowers in the bouquets in a way that makes it look right. Is it okay to just do the four flowers tied together? Or do you guys think smaller BM bouquets are ugly?

    I think four flowers tied together would be fine. I'd need to see an example though. You could always have each BM carry a single flower, like a white rose, calla lily, or daisy. That's a really inexpensive way to go for a simple and elegant look.

    I would recommend going with an odd number of flowers - it just looks better to the eye.   All of us carried smaller bouquets - it looked fine.  We went bold with the color on 1 type of flower (mine orange roses, BMs orange gerbs).

    I am doing smaller BM bouquets of white gerbra daisies.  Mine will be a little bigger with orange and white and my Matron will have a single orange and the rest white. I think it's simple and beautiful.

    My BM bouquets are small too.  I'm doing fresh orange alstrumeria with lime green poms.  Probably two stems of alstrumeria, and one stem of poms with two or three blooms.  My MOH's will be bigger - either double or with some white roses thrown in, as my bouquet is mostly white roses with lime green poms, and a few of the orange mixed in.

    I don't like big BM bouquets!  I think the smaller ones can be more elegant.
