11 Wedding Bouquets That Will Never Wilt

Monday, January 23rd, 2012

Non-floral wedding bouquets are becoming more and more popular. They’re unique, some are more affordable than a traditional bouquet and they’ll never die so you can keep them for years after your big day. We selected our favorite non-floral bouquets that just might have you rethinking your wedding flowers.


The Brooch Bouquet
This lovely bouquet is by Beau Bouquet and it features silk flowers and of course, brooches.


The Butterfly Bouquet
Simply unique, beautiful and fun. We found this one on Killer B. Designs.

I saw this butterfly bouquet in the Summer 09 Martha Stewart Weddings magazine and just loved how beautiful and unique it was. When Laura Normandin married her husband Ben this year she created this lovely bouquet and we found instructions at Martha Stewart Weddings on how to make it:

Tools and Materials

  • Assorted floral butterflies, floraltrims.com has a lot of options
  • White floral-wire stems
  • White floral tape
  • Ribbon

Butterfly Bouquet How-To

Floral butterflies come on wires, making this project super simple. Tape the wires close to the butterfly bodies with white floral tape to cover them and create a uniform appearance. Then gather together a few butterflies and tape their wires together using white floral tape. Stagger the spacing, or tape the wires only at the ends so you’ll have lots of wire to bend.

If the wires are short, or if you want the butterflies to be able to be bent farther apart, attach individual butterflies or clusters of butterflies to floral-wire stems (lay the wire from a butterfly alongside a wire stem with a 1- or 2-inch overlap, and tape the two together). Make several clusters, and tape them together to create the desired shape. Finish the stem by wrapping it in ribbon.
