incorporate material from the BM gown into the bouquet handle? Any pics??? My florist recommended this...
My mocha BM gown came with an ugly wrap that they won't be using. (It's too bulky and awkward.) The material, however, might make a nice addition to the clutch portion of the bouquets. I'm just not sure though...

I dont have pics on me right now but alot of florists do this - you dont even need the shawl usually the material they cut from the bottom of the dress during alterations is enough.

We might do this if enough fabric is cut off the dresses (they are tea length so I don't know). otherwise we are going to give the florist a swatch, and either the florist or I will go to Michaels and pick up matching ribbon.

Yes...I am doing a black strapless dress, with a cranberry sash. Aria allows you to order x-tra fabric, so I will wrap the BM bo-k's with the cranberry fabric.

My SIL did this for hers. After we got them altered we saved the hem piece and they used it to wrap around the stems..it looked really nice...

Yes! my local florist is using the left over fabric from the BM dresses to hand tie the bouquets.

I was going to do this, but unfortunately there was not enough fabric from all the girl's hem's. And forget about getting the fabric from all 12 girls! I am just having my florist get ribbon that matches the color of the dress.
If you have the fabric to do it that matches, I would definately go for it.c

There will not be enought fabric cut off the girls' dresses otherwise I would use that fabric to wrap the stems.
