One thing I love to suggest to my brides is to try to incorporate some type of family heirloom or personal tradition into their bouquets. It could be Grandma’s antique brooch or some other sentimental item to make their bouquet & wedding day uniquely theirs. I’ve had the privilege to work with some very special items. One in particular was the bride’s mother’s brooch from the 1940’s. It was a stunning piece of jewelry! I couldn’t believe how large it was! I had to pretty much build the bouquet around it making sure it didn’t get covered by too many flowers or by my bride’s hands while holding it! It was just too beautiful not to be the focal point of the bouquet!  This was another beautiful brooch I had the pleasure to work with. The brooch was the bride’s Grandmothers. I couldn’t keep my eyes off it! The colors were a perfect accent to her bouquet.   This bride held her grandmother’s rosary beads wrapped around her hands as she held her bouquet. It was a beautiful accent piece. It added to the delicate texture and detailing in the bouquet and her gown.  For unique, this idea was great! My bride was wearing an altered and updated version of her mother’s wedding gown. Neckline changed and long sleeves removed, the dress took on a modern look, yet still had a very traditional feel. I wove the buttons from the sleeves into the wrap of the bouquet! Too cool!  So as a reminder.... think about incorporating your “Something old...” as part of your bouquet! |
