To Have & to Hold: Part 2

Sunday, August 08, 2010

A few weeks ago, I did a little post on alternative bouquet ideas. Well after I wrote up that diddy, I found some more options that I couldn’t resist featuring. I really feel that brides want to move away from the traditional flower bouquet to something more creative that fits their style!



· Pinwheels: There is something about carrying pinwheels that is kitschy and whimsical. I love how they really bring a punch of color too! (images from bridal survival and green wedding shoes)



· Fans: Summer wedding? Keep your maids in waiting cool with decorative fan bouquets! (images from white dress/black tux, butterfly petals and the knot.com)



· Decorative Clutches: For the most fashionable bride and bridesmaids, what about a fancy handbag! (images from project wedding, flickr, flickr and beth berry photography)

· Bracelets: LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this! Bridesmaid bouquets get tossed around, mangled and lost by the end of the night. Why not consider a wrist corsage! So chic and vintage! (images from designed by the bride, wedding obsessions, utah bride blog)





· Ornaments: I am slightly obsessed with winter weddings – the white snow, the twinkle of lights…and the holiday décor! How creative is this ornament bouquet!? (images from nate & Justines super fun wedding, brooklyn v photography)
