Brooch Bouquet for the lovely bride

wedding theme: Back to School

wedding colors:  Blue & Yellow

materials: brooches, ribbons, artificial flowers, faux pearls, crystals, scrabble tiles

Another first for me - making a brooch bouquet for the bride.  This was one of the challenges for me in this project.  Of course, the bride has to stand out so making a masterpiece (it has to be a masterpiece, it's for the bride!) was a HUGE pressure on me.  Like the kusudama bouquets and flowers, I haven't experienced doing a brooch bouquet before, so I did a lot of research to make sure I'll come up with a bouquet that's not just sparkly and pretty, but sturdy as well.  :)  Glad my clients loved it! :)

To Mr & Mrs. Lopez,

       Thank you for your trust - entrusting the flowers of the whole entourage to me was huge - even if I'm just a newbie in this line of work.  I hope all the flowers & boutonnieres I customized for you, made your big day even more special and unique. I wish you forever love for one another & a blessed and fruitful marriage...

      And I also wanna thank Sir Neil - thank you for your trust as well, if not for you, I wouldn't have had this project.  

      And I wanna thank you all for your appreciation of my work.  When I read your feedbacks during our exchange of emails showing you the works I finished, giving you updates, your kind words and compliments made me super glad! And those words made me more inspired while doing the project. I was just happy to be able to meet/exceed your expectations (like you said). It was nice working with you guys.. the pleasure's mine :)

     Again, thank you for choosing Crystals and Beads! :)

Crystal & Bead Bouquet ♥

Be a sparkling bride!  The bride deserves everybody's attention!  And a great way to catch everybody's attention is to have something unique -- a sparkling crystal/bead bouquet, complementing the bride's beauty & radiance as she walks down the aisle towards her dashing groom ♥

The bridal bouquet is one of the things most thought about by a bride during the wedding preps.  Of course, a bride would want her wedding bouquet to be very beautiful on her very special day!  The bouquet you choose to complement your dress will say as much about you as your wedding ceremony and setting.  Aside from adding an instant uniqueness to your wedding, the best reason why a crystal/bead bouquet is a great alternative to a fresh flower bouquet is that your bouquet will never wilt! Isn't it nice to be able to keep your bouquet even after the wedding?  It could even be an heirloom :)
