Pretty & Practical: 36 Small Wedding Bouquets to Inspire

1 day ago 9

We love the drama of maximalist, oversized bouquets, but there’s plenty to adore about small wedding bouquets too. They’re not only utterly charming, but also more affordable, easier to carry on the day (yes, bouquets can be heavy!), and they let your dress truly take centre stage. With intimate ceremonies and two-part weddings on the rise, we predict petite posies will be having their moment.

A small wedding bouquet, also often called a posy or nosegay, is a sweet, rounded arrangement that feels intimate and timeless. While a typical bouquet has 20–30 stems, a small bouquet usually features 10–20 delicate blooms — perfect for carrying close to your heart. If a small bridal bouquet is your style, we’ve rounded up a few of our favourites to inspire you!

Thinking of Carrying A Small Wedding Bouquet? Here's What You Need To Know...

Small wedding bouquets can be can be classic or rustic, retro or wild, but if they don't work for your bridal look, they might be perfect for your bridesmaids!
Tiny blooms like gypsophila (baby's breath), lily of the valley, astilbe, lavender and most Irish wildflowers are ideal for this type of bouquet, but petite posies can be created with almost any flower if the ratio is correct.
If you have your heart set on a particularly expensive variety, like peonies, a cute bouquet containing just a few of these flowers is a good compromise. Your florist will have more suggestions for how to cut down on costs.

Loving this small wedding bouquet look? Work with a great floral artist or wedding stylist that can help guide you in creating the look you want. Here is our hand-picked selection of recommended florists in Ireland, as well as our favourite wedding stylists.
