Answer 5

go to a local craft store, find some flowers you like, and hold them as you would a bouqet. keep adding more until you have how many you would want in your bouquet. count 'em, and viola! you have your perfect answer perfect for you.

Answer 6

I work in a florist shop and most of the time when we do bridal bouquets it depends on what your price range is, the more you can spend the more roses you can get in the arrangement.  It also depends if you want any other flowers in the bouquet and keep in mind that flowers can get heavy so you don't really want to go overboard.  I would recommend a dozen if you are going with just roses and nothing else.

Answer 7

As many as you want

Answer 8

it really depends on how formal your ceremony will be. Are you having any other flowers or just roses? for a simple yet elegant wedding, i would say at least 10, with a few flowers stuck in to give it some dynamics.

Answer 10

As many as you want!

The coolest idea for a bouquet I've heard so far is to have enough to give one to each parent and grandparent at the end of the ceremony---

or to have each bridesmaid and groomsmen carry one up and hand them to you when you get there. Then your husband can give you one that's a different color (like a white one with the red). So symbolic, unique and it saves money too!

Answer 11

I had a dozen mixed in with my bouquet.

Answer 12

It depends on how big a bouquet you want. Smaller, more simple bouquets are in fashion right now, so anywhere from 6 to 12 or more for one of those. For a larger, more eleborate bouquet upwards of 2 1/2 dozen roses can be used.

Answer 13

About 2 1/2 dozen roses.
