Handmade Bouquets

It's a hott day out...
I've been meaning to blog about my DIY bridesmaid bouquets but life just got a little busy. But you know what they say... "Better late than never." So today Micah and I got together all the supplies we used to create these super cute, woodsy and whimsical bouquets.



 Here's my bouquet! :) The Bride's bouquet always needs to stand out and it doesn't have to cost a lot of moolah to do so. Mine was only $5 more than the bridesmaid bouquets. Total I spent around $75 for 6 bouquets. Not bad at all! All the supplies can be found at Hobby Lobby or Michaels in the floral section! Last piece of advice: BE CREATIVE!



 The colors of the bouquets will be the colors in the wedding along with a pretty maroon. You can thank Micah for the maroon because he is determined to wear maroon pants :) All of the bridesmaids will be wearing tan/brown dresses of all shapes and textures, of course we'll be barefoot because shoes are overrated and the guys will be wearing brown skinnies with creamy/tan button downs. They have to option of wearing a bow tie, skinny tie or suspenders to stand out as well. We have our first bridal party meeting/dinner coming up on August 19th! It'll be so much fun getting everyone on board with the details and such.
 Also, here's a shot of the BEAUTIFUL handmade quilt my future mum in-law made me! She's incredibly talented. Surprisingly, this is the first one she's ever given away! Everyone should post on her Facebook and tell her to start selling these on Etsy.com!
         -Thanks Marilee!


...and these are the lovely words of pam!
