My bouquet

by Stephanie
After searching for many hours through tons of pictures of hand bouquets for the wedding I finally decided what I want mine to look like! Here is a picture of what I want my hand bouquet to look like for the wedding (minus the one random fern leaf):

I am thinking of maybe adding a tiny bit of yellow, some greens, and maybe changing the tiny orange roses to orange tulips. I like the idea of maybe adding some tulips because the first country in Europe that Danny and went to together was Amsterdam, and they are famous for their tulips. Other than those small little changes (that I might not even end up making) I think this is it!


Occasionally I would find a bouquet that I thought was really neat, but after about a week or so I would change my mind again. There are lots of designs that I might like for a week or two, but this is the one bouquet that I LOVE every time I look at it. I think it is a good sign that I found one that I keep going back to. That is how it was with my wedding dress too. I tried on tons but kept going back to the second one I tried on. So I think I will stick with this bouquet.


Our idea for the bridesmaid's bouquets and the men's boutonnieres is to have the bridesmaids have small bouquets very similar to mine except they wont have any of the orange flowers. The groomsmen and Danny will have purple boutonnieres with some of the same flowers from the bridal bouquet, but Danny will also have an orange flower in his. That way the flowers are similar enough, but Danny and me will stand out with the bright pop of orange.


What do you think? Do you like it? what about the idea of Danny and me having orange flowers while the bridal party just has the shades of purple?

And they lived happily ever after...
