Today's wedding bouquets and centerpieces aren't limited to fragrant
blooms. For the next five weeks, I'll be showing you my favorite flower
alternatives, from new DIY creations to bouquets rich in history (and
heirloom antiques!), from transient arrangements that look beautiful at
your event to permanent keepsakes that'll look beautiful for generations
to come.
Option 5: Brooch Bouquets
Brooch bouquets are <i>all</i> the rage right now! They're absolutely gorgeous, and they have a great vintage feel to them. Scour antique shops, jewelry stores (go for costume jewelry to save money and find large, colorful brooches), flea markets - even your grandmother's attic!
If the brooches mean something to your or your family, you'll have the added bonus of heirloom history on your wedding day - but even if all the brooches you find are brand new purchases, they'll mean something to you now, and will have all the more value for future generations.
Don't be afraid to mix different brooches! The best brooch bouquets have a variety of sizes and styles that all flow together by similarity in color or shape.
