Wedding inspiration _ alternative wedding bouquets

 This is a lovely idea for anyone that wants to have a truly unique bouquet! Why not make your own (or order online, for example on etsy.com) out of fabric, paper, newspaper, toys, or anything really! You will be sure to have a one-of-a-kind bouquet that you will be able to keep forever! It's also a way to avoid picking flowers that you will just use for one day. Also, you can save a lot of money, especially if you make them by yourself! It's easy to colour coordinate with the rest of your wedding and you can also easily add an important family heirloom or good luck charm to your bouquet.
Good luck and be creative!







This is such a lovely fabric vintage bouquet with added jewels and heirlooms. 


Flowers made out of felt with added jewels. 


I've seen someone making these flowers and despite they look quite complicated to make, the lady that was making them hardly took any time at all. I guess once you learn how to make one it's easy to make a whole flower and bunch. But you have to make each petal separably. Each petal includes even the middle part. Then the petals are attached 2 by 2 and then all together. I'm sure there are tutorials on the internet! 
Here's a whole bouquet which I'm sure took a long time to make! But look how sweet it looks!
