A little bit of pearl,  a tiny glittery butterfly, shell flowers, and some feather fringe accent your wedding bouquet and take it from standard to standout. This bouquet will bring tears to your eyes!

Quoted in Style Me Pretty the bride said "For my bouquet, I created some shell flowers by adhering small pink petal-shaped shells to pearl bead centers and then mounted each one to a separate wire to make it easy for our florist, Katie McConnell, to incorporate them into the feather- fringed fresh floral bouquet."

In this instance the bride's creativity and the florist's skill blended to make a standout bouquet for the bride to carry on her wedding day.

Stephanotis and Pearls--Purely Bridal

Martha Stewart has designed this bouquet and boutonniere using stephanotis and pearls.  This is an elegant look for the bride who is looking for a simple but sophisticated design for the flowers she carries at her wedding.  Stephanotis look fragile and are often seen in bridal bouquets.  This bouquet combines this loved flower with tiny rounded pearls in the center of each flower as well as along the satin handle of the bouquet.  For other ideas for flowers head to Martha's web site--no one has more options in a variety of colors and styles for you to choose from.
