So for the bouquets, we don't want to use flowers, real, silk or fake. We MIGHT go with buttons w/felt (which i LOVE but he's skeptical about).
Are there any other things we could use? Our colors are teal, pink/red, and silver. Yeah, I have NO clue!! LOL

Re: Alternatibve to flower bouquets?
i thought of those fan type things...which could have different designs on them (but i dunno about that idea since ure wedding is the end of oct).
bok made of ribbon or fabric?
bunches of wheat (although thats sort of like flowers)
someone i know did this idea...although it still had flowers....she had her bms carry little black bags and in the bags were flowers...so maybe have the girls carry different bags?
here are some other ideas i read online too- oragami bok, muff, pumpkin/jackolantern, prayer book/bible, rosary beads, candles (with holders), parasol, lit lantern etc.

Re: Alternative to flower bouquets?
since your a fall wedding, maybe you could do something with leaves and have people carry something to do with little pumpkins and squashes?

Re: Alternative to flower bouquets?
Thanks for the help!!!
Those were the first ones that I loved but he rejected them outright These ones:
The others are these: She makes them herself. He is a bit iffy on those but I might be able to convince him.
I do like the ideas here... Those crystal bouquets are $395
But the pumpkin idea might work, maybe a bsket of fall stuff. We don't really have fall elements but this might be a way to bring it in. Hmmm hmmm. More thinking to do

Re: Alternative to flower bouquets?
My friend is using objects to represent items in her life or about her life. She is has all the elements represented so each girl holds something representing earth, water, wind and fire.
The earth is a olive branch, water is a large bowl with just a bit of water in it, air is a crystal ball and fire is a lantern. I mean it may not be like this but think of what could be a great representation of elements of your wedding.
