17 wedding bouquet alternatives for fearless brides #Favors & Flowers#Wedding Porn#bouquet alternatives#button bouquet#diy bouquet#feathers#non-floral bouquet#paper flowers#parasols#peacock feathers Updated Oct 12 2015 (Posted Mar 5 2009) Megan Finley Horowitz meggyfin Y I opted to not carry a bouquet; put something, anything, in my hands and watch me awkwardly bend, fold and fondle it into oblivion. Plus, for some strange reason, I didn't feel like spending a load of money for flowers that I was just going throw away at the end of the day. But if I wasn't so fidgety I would have definitely been one of those brides that opted for a bouquet alternative to flowers. Since Offbeat Bride Kerry started a discussion called "Bouquet Alternatives" on the Offbeat Bride Tribe, a wealth of amazing offbeat bouquet porn has been popping up. I thought I'd share a few of the unique and inspiring ideas. Tribe member Zan suggested making this bouquet out of "beautiful, cheap, fashionable feathers" that she'd seen at a craft store. Another take on a Hobby Lobby feather creation by Offbeat Bride Tribe member Christina with peacock feathers and paper dollars "that just jumped out at [her]." Well it's a good thing they did because they look awesome together! Offbeat Bride Tribe member Jennifer opted for a clutch bag. "…a silky/satin one in a pink to match the underskirt of my dress" like this one from Mabel Hand Bags. Candy bouquets are an incredibly delicious option, like this one from Lin and Philip's wedding. I can't help but notice the "button trend" that's been sweeping the offbeat wedding scene and I also can't help but love it. This awesome bouquet made of vintage buttons and a few leaves of reclaimed leather was made by Etsy seller Lil Fish. And of course there's always Princess Lasertron's felt-and-button wedding bouquets! Fans… the ultimate alternative? I'm a big fan of all the cool origami options. Super-fun sparkly and festive beaded bouquets are like fireworks that you can hold! Or as Offbeat Bride Tribe member Reba Radey said, "Crystally clear glassy vintagey chandeliery glittery BLINGYNESS." A seashell bouquet found by Offbeat Bride Tribe member Akaisha! "For all your beach wedding needs." An idea that came from Offbeat Bride Tribe member Rebekah were to use these "Modern Victorian" bags filled with branches and feathers. How about an eco-friendly alternative to parasols? I love the idea that OBB Kate presented of using these see-through biodegradable umbrellas. Check out this post featuring these lovely bouquet alternatives. Having a winter wedding? Why not carry a muff instead of a bouquet? It's warm and fuzzy and totally practical, plus think about how much fun it would be to toss! [Editor's note from Ariel: plus, you get to make muff jokes non-stop. And who doesn't like muff jokes at a wedding!?] In my research I've also noted a lot of talk of lantern carrying. I haven't seen this in practice yet, but Offbeat Bride Tribe member Book_Thief provided a picture of a pretty one. Then there's always the option to not carry anything! There's no rule that a bride has to be holding something, and we are a community of rule breakers, are we not? And if this post isn't enough for you, make sure to check out the rest of the Offbeat Bride posts that deal with wedding bouquet alternatives for even more ideas. Megan Finley Horowitz When Megan's not writing, traveling, and sleeping, she's eating like the fate of the world depends on it. (You're welcome, world!) You can snoop into her personal life over on her website The Dash and Dine! @meggyfin @thedashanddine @meggyfin PREVIOUS Christie & Phill's red dress nature wedding NEXT Jamie & Chris' Family Reunion Style Wedding Show/Hide comments [ 118 ] Somehow reading these posts just inspired me with a new (and oh-so-cheap!!!!) idea for our wedding: Our theme is "going back to our roots" with a tree motif throughout. I have been really struggling with the whole bouquet thing (expensive, may be hard to find organic flowers, blahblahblah). So, here's what I think we'll do: Each of us carry a branch (picked up from the ground somewhere) with family photos hanging from them. Once at the "altar," we'll put them together in a vase or some sort of container. Voila! Inexpensive, "green," and oh-so-symbolic! Wow, I feel better. Reply hi Love your ideas here! I am definitely adding a link to your blog. Keep these great ideas coming Reply Wow! Those origami flowers look amazing! Great collection of creative ideas there. Reply For the vegan who loved feathers, instead of searching for "synthetic feathers" why not do a search on "cruelty-free feathers". Like hair, feathers also fall out on their own, or birds die of natural causes, and Peacocks being revered birds, I don't think they are usually slaughtered for their feathers. But I could be wrong on that. Anyhow, just a thought. I'm not vegan, but I also would avoid feathers if I thought that my acquiring them had caused an innocent animal to suffer. Good luck! Reply Mileah…I LOVE your idea. Our theme is "Retromantica Carnivà le" and we'll also be including as much family memorabilia as we can round up. You could make vintage style mini photo frames for your pictures too, by cutting recycled cardstock. And I've seen vintage looking "frame" stamps at the craft store…. There is a special embossing ink you can use, and then dust with a metallic pigment. It makes kind of a relief design. That would be so neat! Also, I'd say print duplicates and do them front and back so they don't get flipped backwards. OK, now I'm gonna have to do this with our photos. I love how ideas evolve on OBB!!! Thanks for the inspiration! Good Luck!

Reply I am planning a very OBB wedding in Northern Portugal. I have designed my dress to be in shades of blue, cream, butter yellow, and periwinkle (this will match the blue and white tiles and the gold leaf on just about every surface of the church). The dress will have a corset (removable), and for modesty, a medieval style hooded cape with late medieval/early renaissance sleeves that would be awkward with a bouquet. Because I'm doing the medieval/renaissance look to go with the church (circa 1400s) I'm doing a faux flower head wreath for myself as well as my attendants. I made them, they're easy to carry, affordable…and when done can be hung on a wall or reused (either in the home or to wear)….so they will double as a 'thank you' gift for the bridesmaids (my sister and nieces.) The other challenge, and reason for not carrying a bouquet, is that I am doing a bilingual ceremony and will have to carry a 'cheat sheet' of vows etc. in Portuguese (which I will disguise in some kind of nice leather-bound journal or prayer book thingy.

The wedding didn't happen in part because my MIL-to-be thought the vegies (and me, and my friends, and my folks, etc.) would embarrass her in front of her family; my intended agreed with his mom, and this is too much information, isn't it? Sorry. This isn't exactly non-floral, but I did see a more a successful wedding in which the bride–a neuroscientist marrying another neuroscientist–carried a bouquet made of coxcomb celosia in the form of a brain, with the major lobes color-coded.

Reply Saw this when I was browsing around, it's crystals! And oh so very pretty… http://m-lady.blogspot.com/2009/09/for-wedding.html Probably not very alternative, but still gorgeous.

Reply Seriously crushin' on that seashell bouquet. Reply I wanted an alternative because my nan died last year and my mum has kept a portion of her inheritance back to pay for my flowers so I am definitely keeping them forever!!! I'm happy to see no one has done my idea yet. Will have to submit a pic when we've made them! 😀 Reply Does anyone know where I can get the seashell bouquet, or a pattern to make one? Reply I also loved the pic I saw on here a while ago of a monarch butterfly bouquet, it was seriously gorgeous! For myself, I'm planning on having parasols, but I'm trying to decide if I want to incorporate flowers into that to give my bridesmaids more of a bouquet feel (although I'm sure they won't mind either way…) I'm still not sure.
