Just realized I've been overstuffing my bridal bouquets for ages

A bride last weekend said her bouquet felt heavy and awkward to hold all day. I watched her photos and saw her arm was tense. Anyone else have a simple trick for keeping things light but full?

Wait, you only just realized? The weight is the first thing I check when I hand it off. Try swapping some of those heavy blooms for lighter filler greens, it keeps the look without the arm workout.

Disagree completely on swapping out the blooms. The weight is part of the gift's value, making it feel substantial and worth the price. Light bouquets just seem cheap and forgettable to me.

Oh man, you're totally right... my arms have been getting secretly jacked from all those dense peonies. I guess I was so focused on the look I forgot people actually have to carry these things home. Solid tip from @the_ivan, I'm definitely raiding the filler greens bin tomorrow. My delivery guy might finally stop giving me that pained smile.
