Is a Flower Bouquet Passé?

Just for the record I think flower bouquets are beautiful, and always will be. 

However, there are many other options that can be just as beautiful.  If you’re looking for something a little more unique to carry down the aisle here are some options to consider:

Feather bouquet, Emplume

Left: Fabric bouquet, Milkpod Studio
Right: Brooch bouquet, Washington Grass Fleurs
I love both of these because they are custom made so you can incorporate personal and sentimental touches from your life.

Wire bouquet, Refinerii

And instead of carrying a bouquet at all –

Just remember – if you choose to have anything other than  flowers but still want to partake in the traditional bouquet toss, get a “throw-away bouquet”!
