Succulents: In or Out?

The succulent craze was alive and well in 2018. Should succulents stay around for 2019? Or do they suck all the fun out of weddings?

Are succulents in or out?

    Allllllll for the succulent look! They are beautiul! If they weren't so expensive, those wouldn't been my first choice for centerpieces and boquets/bouts!

    I love succulents! I'm using terrariums without them though because flowers were included in our package. But I'll be buying some to put into a display for my desk at work!

    Not a fan of them as favors (not everyone wants to take care of a plant) but they're pretty as centerpieces. Not really in or out, more personal preference.

    Will you be having any succulents at all at your wedding or are you sticking with traditional (or alternative) flowers?

    I love succulents but I don't see them as very practical for a favor unless all the guests live locally. I feel like these wouldn't travel well.

    In. Not a huge fan of them as favors, but think they look beautiful mixed in with the decor.

    Really? Is there a particular reason why they don't do it for you or it's just not your wedding's vibe?

    Unfortunately we aren't using any succulents as they are just too expensive to keep the flow of them going, so we are sticking with hydrangeas, greenery and baby's breath. Still beautiful and fits our theme better!

    I think they’re beautiful, but I’m moderation and with other flowers.

    In! This was my only "must have" for my bouquet. I love love love the look of succulents, and the purple colored ones were perfect for my color scheme.

    I wouldn't do them as a wedding favor but I have seen beautiful bouquets with a mixture of flowers and succulents.
