What to carry besides flowers?

Has anyone carried anything down the aisle besides a bouquet of Flowers? I am getting married in the winter and I just don't know if Flowers are my thing.

Any ideas?

Thank you!

I've seen the FG or RB carry a 'here comes the bride' banner....

If it's winter maybe you can carry a candle or something.

I was thinking of that, but I would either need a lantern to cover the flame or a fake flame. I'm so afraid someone is going to catch on fire!! Would the church allow that I wonder?

Who says you have to carry anything?

If you aren't a 'flower' type of gal, since it is the winter, maybe you can just get one of those muff's and walk down with that on your hands.

They have beautiful lanterns that you can carry. Or here is an idea from the Knot

Sweet, I finally had a good idea lol

I do actually like that, it's almost classic and EVERYONE will remember it b/c it's not the norm. I like being different, and I think that would be so cute.

Maybe you can take the colors that you are having throughout the wedding and get that color ribbon, and make a ribbon bouquet.

That would be kind of cute. You can add some greenery like one girl posted, it said you can use berries and other wintery kind of leaves, maybe mix it togetehr?

Some ideas I found on google:

I did that, and it was my grandmother's rosary so she felt so honored

The second one does look like its in a vase. I think that's just for the picture though.

since my wedding is also winter, I'm having my girls carry muffs rather than bouquets. I'll, personally, be having flowers. But you could consider that! Muffs are very pretty & elegant

I was just in a wedding last month. The bride carried flowers but the bridesmaids (10 of us) carried small lanterns with a fake LCD tea light.
