    In between, we're doing floral garlands to decorate the arch of the chapel, so I'm neutral lol

    Overrated, definitely!

    It's going to involve a lot of set-up the day of and enough flowers (fresh or fake) would be pretty expensive. Flowers really aren't my thing though either, so maybe a little bias there...lol

    I'm still trying to decide if I want an arch at all or if I want to go in another direction. I'd like to have something behind us I think.....

    Overrated. Fresh flowers are super expensive, and just one more thing you need to worry about setting up and tearing down

    If they are done right they aren't overdone. I'd rather see a good floral arch than a burlap wrapped mason jar. But that is just my taste.

    The floral arch is beautiful though expensive for the flowers to put on it throughout the whole arch. Overrated as it does require a lot of work.

    They are really beautiful to look at as long as they are done tastefully, but I agree with most - overrated.

    Like many, overrated but they can look pretty!

    We had minimal florals at our wedding so it wouldn't be something I'd be into anyways.

    Overrated. I like some but I find most to be a little over the top for my tastes

    Overrated. They are gorgeous, and we had our arch partially covered but at the end of the day, no ones going to remember if the arch was covered or not

    Overrated, I'm not a fan. And florals are pricey enough, I can't imagine doing a full arch of them

    Overrated for 100% floral but I think it's a nice touch to have some sort of focal point if there isn't anything already there.

    I really love the look of them actually but overrated in my opinion (and expensive!)

    Overrated - it's so beautiful but the cost of that would be insane!
