Alternative To Bridal Bouquets

You know, I'm always up for unique, breakaway from "the norm" trends.

Here's one I've been pushing and encouraging brides to consider for a while now, however it appears to just now be catching on.

That is "wedding parasols" or a "rice paper parasol" as an alternative to bride bouquets and bridesmaid bouquets.

Don't get me wrong. I love wedding flowers, and bridal bouquets, but a change that is not only gorgeous, and eye-catching once in a while to throw you off - is nice! Very nice!

If you must have flowers for yourself and to match your bridesmaid dresses, consider the wedding parasols, but provide a wrist corsage for each of your bridesmaids, and a small carry bride bouquet for yourself as the bride. See photos below as an example of this.
