9 Unique Wedding Bouquet Ideas

Some brides choose to stick closely to tradition when it comes to their wedding, while others prefer to stray from the norm. We recently read a story about a bride that worked at a rescue shelter and decided to have her bridesmaids carry puppies rather than a traditional bouquet of flowers. 

 Her guests loved it and the pictures were priceless! If you would like to switch things up a bit yourself, Bridal Couture of the Palm Beaches found a few fun alternatives to flowers that you can use for your wedding bouquet. 

Nature
There is beauty all around when you step outside in addition to the lovely flowers that bloom. Fall is a wonderful time to incorporate colorful autumn leaves or even small gourds into an arrangement. In the winter, pine cones with sprigs of evergreen would be very nice. Step outside and look around. Something is sure to inspire you.

 Paper
Origami flowers in your wedding colors can be arranged into a gorgeous bunch. Paper can also be rolled to resemble roses and other flowers. Add a personal touch by using sheet music from "your song" or even pages from a comic or your favorite book.

 Fabric
Fabric can be used in much the same way that paper is. We have even seen bouquets that were knitted and crocheted. For a rustic wedding, a big bunch of burlap and lace flowers would be perfect. 

 Candy
For the couple with a sweet tooth, candy bouquets are both colorful and tasty! Giant lollipops already look a bit like flowers. You could also attach all of your favorite wrapped candies to a Styrofoam base with a handle. 

Lanterns
Lanterns would be especially beautiful coming down the aisle at an evening outdoor wedding or an indoor candlelit ceremony. The glass around the flame would keep the wind from blowing it out, and the entire setting would have a romantic, ethereal quality to it. 

 Umbrellas
Paper umbrellas come in a wide variety of colors and patterns, and they are wonderful for keeping the sun at bay for an outdoor ceremony. There are tons of great photos that can be staged with umbrellas too. 

 Themes
If you have given your wedding a theme, pull from that for ideas on what you can use to make a unique wedding bouquet. A fairy-tale themed wedding could have all of the bridesmaids carrying classic books wrapped in lace and ribbons. If you are getting married at the beach, gather a beautiful bunch of seashells together for a bouquet. 

Fans
Feathery fans would add a nice touch to a vintage wedding. If you are of Asian heritage, beautifully painted Oriental fans could pay homage to this in a very pretty way. 

 Heirloom Items
Brooch bouquets have been popular for a while now. Other items that you could use are the bunch of buttons from that jar on your grandmother's shelf, or even pieces of a family member's bridal veil or wedding dress. If that person has passed away, adding a small photo of them is a touching addition. 

If you have been searching for something a little different for your wedding, hopefully the ideas above will inspire your own creativity. Whether you decide to go the traditional route or a bit offbeat, your wedding will be unique to you. 

 That's exactly how we see every woman that steps into our South Florida bridal boutique. Each one is special in her very own way, and we strive to capture her uniqueness through the wedding fashion. When you shop at Bridal Couture of the Palm Beaches, we will listen to your dreams, wishes, and needs for your wedding dress, then do our very best to accommodate each one.
