PSA: A bride's mom told me my bouquets were 'too heavy to hold' after a ceremony.

She was right, they were over 5 pounds each. Now I test the weight of every arrangement in my hand for a full minute before delivery. Anyone else get called out on something obvious they missed?

Doesn't this happen with fancy dinner plates too?

Ever think about how heavy a bridesmaid's arms must get?

Honestly, that makes me think of holding a bouquet for way too long. My cousin's wedding had this endless photo session where we just stood there smiling, arms locked in place. After a while, your shoulders start to burn and you forget what a normal, relaxed posture even feels like. It's a special kind of muscle ache you only get from pretending to be comfortable for hours. The worst part is trying to subtly switch arms without the photographer noticing.
