Tiffany1203 Posted August 17, 2012 #1 Share Posted August 17, 2012 So I found my wedding dress and decided I didnt want to hold/carry a bunch of colorful flowers in front of me because I felt it would take away from my dress. My opinion is seeing a bride in white or ivory then having all this color in front of them directs your eyes right to the color. This is something I didnt want. So I decided on a brooch bouquet :) Thoughts??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

6rugrats Posted August 17, 2012 #4 Share Posted August 17, 2012 Very pretty, but to be honest, if you don't want eyes to be drawn directly to the bouquet, this isn't working, at least for me. My eyes would be drawn there for the sparkle and then trying to figure out what all the brooches are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeschwartz82 Posted August 17, 2012 #8 Share Posted August 17, 2012 thats super pretty, but i agree, you are probably drawing the eye to your bouquet with all the sparkle. no matter, its beautiful, and i am sure its the perfect compliment to your dress!

So I decided on a brooch bouquet :) Thoughts??? That is very pretty. I am in love with bling and sparkle! But more importantly you need to listen to your heart! Its your wedding you will be the one carrying it and no matter how colorful your flowers are people will still be looking at you because you and the groom are the only two people that truly matter at that point in time! So don't worry girl, just be happy. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gina130284 Posted August 18, 2012 #11 Share Posted August 18, 2012 Im not sure whether you'll be able to view this picture as you may need to be a member but here goes anyway. This is the lady who is making my brooch bouquet and this is her in her wedding gown and her brooch bouquet. I personally dont think it takes away from the dress. Her dress is very detailed, and she also has her tiara and jewellery on too. http://www.finalstitch.co.uk/blog/missengaged/album/nicola-and-ryian-ludwick/#_nstep=1&/blog/missengaged/album/nicola-and-ryian-ludwick/10378148/ The bouquet is small and I think this is a good idea. xx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
relic2 Posted August 18, 2012 #12 Share Posted August 18, 2012 Very pretty. A friend was telling me about a cameo wedding bouquet and I couldn't visualize it. I collect cameos, but am 44 years past needing a bridal bouquet. :). Best wishes to you! Margaret Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My eyes would be drawn there for the sparkle and then trying to figure out what all the brooches are. what a neat idea. i had never seen this before, I have already ordered silk flowers but now i'm trying to figure a way to put either a couple of brooches on my bouquet or a couple of charms that I inherited from my grandmother, thought that would make it a lil more special for me.
