Beauty for your Bouquet!



Let's not leave one detail uncovered. When it comes to planning your wedding the sparkle is in the details. Details all the way down to the wrap around your bouquet. For a rustic wedding try using canvas, raffia, or vintage lace.

Pile on the glitz!!!! Swavorski crystals adorn this gorgeous bouquet.


There are so many wonderful options. With 90% of bouquets these days being hand-tied stems it's a great way to add a little personal touch to your wedding day!
Try ruffles like these:

I love the addition of the feathers in black.

Try ribbon loops:


Consider also all the ways you can personalize the bouquet. For example... use a scarf from grandmas closet, or a hankie from Grandpas top drawer. Try wrapping pieces of a silk necktie your FI wore to your first formal evening out. Lockets with pictures of deceased family members is always a great way to bring them to the memories of the day.
Bouquet wraps are a great way to introduce touches from that wedding gown your mom has still hanging in the closet. Remove a strap or take out the hem and remove. The possibilities are endless and willl an extra hug from mom on your wedding day.
Remember it's about incorporating things that are special to you and your loved ones. Enjoy wrapping those lovely flowers in something sentimental!
