ABOUT:
I was on a budget when planning my wedding. Total, we spent around $12,000. Most of that going to the venue which included food and alcohol. It was a beautiful golf course/casino/hotel in Scottsdale, AZ. Immediately, I knew I didn't want to spend money on florals, which left the question; what should I do about my bouquet. Came across brooch bouquets in my quest for unique, non-traditional bouquets. Fell in love with the idea, but wanted to make it myself because that's just who I am. Now my only "floral" budget is my amazing bouquet that I get to keep forever and it sits delightfully on display in our living room.

BOUQUETS:
These bouquets are all made from thrifted/antique/vintage/estate sale items with love. Bringing new life to flower bud vases and candlesticks by turning them into the handles. The bling can come from anywhere; necklaces, bracelets, earrings, brooches, shoe clips, and yes some newly bought pieces. The material underneath the bling is a variety of lace ribbon, satin ribbon, glitter tulle, even vintage wedding dresses.
THINGS TO NOTE:
- Bouquets range in weight from approx. 1.5lbs - 2.5lbs. That's like carrying a 24oz water bottle or a quart of milk down the aisle
- If you are participating in the 'throwing of the bouquet' - DO NOT THROW your brooch bouquet! 🤣🤕
- Do not give to toddlers or dogs!
- When handled properly and taken care of, your bouquet should last "As long as your love does". All the bling is meticulously hot-glued and pinned down for extra durability
- Glitter Disclaimer: Precautions have been taken to try to stop glitter from shedding. However, glitter will be glitter. Any bouquet with glitter tulle will provide extra sparkle on you.
- Enjoy your day, have an amazing wedding that fits your relationship, and don't forget to post your bouquet pictures @blingnbouquet
