are there other flowers mixed in? if not, 24 roses is not that big, especially they are tight and compact pave style

Re: how many flowers are in your bouquet??

Ask them if they're making a hand-tied bouquet or using a holder - you can use way fewer flowers in a holder and still have a huge bok, and that's often what's done when you use stephanotis.

It depends on the variety of the rose, too... some are tight by nature even when fully open and others are huuuuge, so the actual number used doesn't always correlate exactly to the size of the bok.

Sorry, not trying to sound like a know-it-all - I'm actually a florist so I always want to put my 2 cents in when it comes to flower questions

Re: how many flowers are in your bouquet??

When I was doing research on how many to put in my bouquet I found that 3 dozen is usually a good amount. Since I'm petite I did closer to 30, but 24 doesnt sound like very many...unless you want something on the smaller side and/or they are very full roses
