Brides also want to make their wedding day a memorable experience for their guests, and what is more memorable than a bouquet made out of donuts? Check out a few more ideas of what you can use to replace that traditional flower bouquet.
Many Brides are veering away from the traditional wedding ideas. There's nothing more traditional than a bouquet of flowers. For your wedding stand out with something different! Try one of the bouquet options below...
- Donuts - This sugary snack is trendy, so why not make a wedding bouquet out of them? Plus, if you get hungry during the wedding, the bridesmaids have you covered.
- A metal masterpiece - Why carry flowers when you can carry a piece of art? Creative brides can find small metal sculptures that are inspired by a floral bouquet and look classy with a modern twist.
- Paper flowers - When you love the look of flowers but want something that’ll last longer, paper flowers could be way to go. They can be made from newspaper, sheet music, or pages from a favorite book to make them even more personal.
- Brooches - Brides can borrow brooches from family members to build the brooch bouquet with and carry part of the family down the aisle with her. These jeweled pins make a stunning bouquet, but you’re not going to want to toss this one.
- Seashells - This one would be perfect for a coastal theme or a destination wedding and the bouquet could be made with shells you find yourself for a personal touch.
- Pinecones - For a fresh look that’s not floral, pinecones and leaves make a lovely natural bouquet.
- Buttons - Making this would take some time, but all kinds of crafty types make and sell them online so busy brides don’t have to. Button bouquets are colorful and fun without being over the top.
- Rescue puppies - Instead of flowers, some brides have opted for having everyone walk down the aisle carrying puppies. And this has to be the cutest bouquet of all time.
My personal favorite from the list is the donut bouquet. What better than to have a variety of sugary treats to snack on while you're walking down the aisle. Plus, the tasty treat would make for a great pick me up if the walk down the long aisle gets too exhausting. When it comes time to throw the bouquet, simply throw the donuts one by one and allow for multiple guests to catch the treats.
