Our wedding was very informal. We got married on the upper balcony of the Kennedy Center in Washington DC. My daughter’s were my maids of honor, and they chose their own dresses within a pallet. What made my bouquet so special is that my youngest daughter made it for me. She had been very ill and left school to recover and she got into origami. It was supposed to be shades of dusty rose and cream. But then she ended up buying a purple dress (not in my color scheme lol). She added some purple flowers in the bouquet then, and I had each girl carry sprigs of lavender. So it all worked out and now I have my bouquet on display in a vase in our home. How about your bouquet or your plans for a bouquet? Show us your pictures!

    Your bouquet is really pretty. Mine didn’t turn out quite like I wanted but these are my two favorite flowers.

    I haven’t met with a florist yet but both our moms carried daisies on their wedding days so I thought it would be cool to do the same. These are some inspo pix I’ve found.

    I love your bouquet, I've never seen one like it! That being said, I also LOVE your dress. It looks so beautiful on you especially in the fourth picture! I ordered my bouquet off of Amazon and I like it for the most part, but I think I'll add a little more here and there and take off those awful green plastic pieces Smiley xd

    I love the story behind it and love the different shades. I wanted an all white bouquet with green and my florist got my vision just right!

    I made my bouquet with artificial flowers from Michael's and AC Moore. The bulk of it is hydrangeas. I knew from the start I wanted my bouquet to be mostly hydrangeas because they're one of my favorite flowers (since they're one of the few naturally blue flowers and blue is my favorite color). I used scrap from my dress alteration for the bow.

    This is a bad angle of mine but all I had available right now, this next one is mine and a few others I made.

    Mine were all silk! My bouquet was purchased from Etsy premade and I made the bridesmaids ones using premade Michael's bouquets that I took apart and put back together.

    😭 how sweet!

    Daisys are nice because they are a larger flower too!
