Out of the Box Brilliance


Buttons, and Feathers, and Boutonnieres, OH MY!

Alright girls, we all know that weddings are all about the dress right? Well what about the bouquet? If the bouquet doesn’t perfectly compliment the dress, than it just won’t do.

The good news is, nowadays brides have so many more options than just the typical “rose with baby’s breath” bouquet. A lot of brides are going for the bouquets that won’t die within a week by getting either fake flowers, or buttons! No, that’s not a typo. I meant to say button bouquet!

These baby blue button bouquets (try to say that 5 times fast), are a trend that is definitely on the rise with more and more brides who want to dare to be different. I found that a shop called Princess Lasertron that makes really great ones, and she even sells a kit on her Etsy shop so you can make your own (or maybe have your maid of honor do it for you because that’s why we love them). You might be wondering “okay I want these but how I am going to get the boutonnieres that match?” She’s got you covered for that too. She makes matching boutonnieres to go with every bouquet.

Okay so you’re reading this and thinking “this is cute, but buttons just aren’t my style”. Don’t worry because I have another alternative that might be up your alley. What about feathers? Come on now, what girl doesn’t like feathers? This one was made by Ardesign and I found it on her Etsy shop. (Isn’t Etsy great??) She also makes the matching boutonnieres to go with any bouquet. This one goes for about $80 and she has an option for a custom request feather creation! Not a bad price considering this will last forever. (If you have a place to keep it forever)


So whether you are deciding between buttons, feathers, or your own creative bouquet design, remember that thinking out of the box will always give your wedding that little something extra you were hoping for.
