The newest wedding trend is to make your bridal bouquet out of collectable brooches.  People are gearing less towards the traditional route of real flowers. These sparkly bouquets are meaningful keepsakes that will last long after your wedding, it also allows you to make your bouquet well in advance and you’ll never have to worry about it not holding up throughout your big day.  All that sparkle doesn’t hurt either!

A unique idea is asking your bridal party, parents, aunts, grandmother, etc. to each find a brooch that they like or reminds them of you and then incorporate them into your bouquet so that everyone has a special place in your bouquet that you can keep forever.
