Add a classic, vintage feel with pearls and brooches or use crystals and jewels and opt for a more modern, stylish feel. Alternatively you could also include family heirlooms or sentimental pieces that hold special meaning to you or your partner, offering a truly personal addition to your day.

Colours, shapes and sizes

With almost as many colours, shapes and sizes available as traditional flowers, brooch bouquets offer a fun and interesting way of integrating a theme or splash of colour into your ceremony. They can be soft, subtle and simple or as exciting and vibrant as you like. Brooches are a meaningful alternative to tradition, acting as a lasting memento and keepsake that can be passed down to family or friends or simply kept and cherished as a memory of your big day.

You’ve two options in embracing this trend: either wholeheartedly abandon tradition and select an entirely jewelled bouquet adorned with crystals or combine the two styles and merely add a few sparkles or significant pieces in with your chosen flowers. Brooch bouquets also make gorgeous centrepieces and can be used effectively to add a simple touch of elegance and glitz to your table.
