Paper Flower Bridal Bouquet
It’s tradition to make a bridal bouquet for the wedding rehearsal at the bridal shower. Usually it’s a combination of wrapping paper cut outs and ribbons from all of the gifts the bride receives. Well I found this kit on Etsy from paperplatypus (do I even need to say that’s where I find everything any more?) and find it kind of amazing. It combines that tradition with a classier presentation, making the bouquet a keepsake rather than something that gets tossed before the wedding ceremony even happens.

Each guest writes a message of good luck and well wishes for the big day on the petals. How great to start your wedding with a prettier and personal type of fortune cookie. We start the new year off with fortune cookies, so why not a new marriage? And once the petals are put together they make peonies – my all time favorite flower. Plus if you still want to incorporate the tradition of making the bouquet with the gift wrappings, then tie the ribbons in a bow on the stem. Or make your bride-to-be a ribbon and wrappings tiara and veil instead.
