Bride-to-Be: Bridal Bouquet Alternatives

TAGS: BRIDE TO BE, BOUQUET ALTERNATIVES, BUDGET, TIPS


As far as brides go, I’m pretty non-traditionalist. One of the many wedding traditions I’ve decided to revolt against is the iconic floral bridal bouquet. I’ve never been big into flowers, especially the whole wilting and dying part.


I’d much rather carry something down the aisle that will stay beautiful and always be there to remind me of the day RC and I started our life together.


As such, I’ll be crafting my own bouquet out of heirloom vintage buttons. To me, this will be much more meaningful and personal than the stereotypical sphere of red roses.

Add a beautiful touch of whimsy to vintage-style weddings.
