Bigger is not always better — especially when it comes to your bridal bouquet.
Maybe you’re going “understated” for your second-time-around nuptials and want to leave the oversized cascading bouquet in the dust. We don’t blame you.
Enter dainty, demure bouquets — an elegant accent for the classy bride. And just because they’re smaller doesn’t mean they are any less sweet. Take a cue from Kate Middleton, who grasped a small handful of wispy white flowers for the royal wedding, making for a chic look that didn’t overpower her delicate frame.
Convinced yet? Here are eight cute-as-can-be bouquets to inspire your own for the big day:
