Some Bling for the Bridesmaids…

I love a deal. I love shopping. I will admit, I am a hopeless bargain store shopper (give me a TJ Maxx or Marshalls and I am a happy girl).

I was out shopping for a shower curtain for the new apartment (funnn right?), and on a whim I decided to look in Burlington Coat Factory, since I knew they had a home goods section.

Well, little did I know that my trip would quickly turn wedding-related, as when I stepped through the door, what did I see but a jewelry rack chock full of brooches!

Ok, yes I can year you asking, “Katie, what the heck do you want with a brooch? Aren’t those for old ladies?” To which I reply, heck no! I LOVE the idea of attaching a brooch to my bouquet (and those of my bridesmaids)!

Don’t you think the brooch adds an extra little “je ne sais quoi?”

I was immediately drawn to these blue beauties, which I think will pop against the bouquets (mine will be all white, and the bridesmaids will be carrying green bouquets)!



So, what do you think??? Are you planning on adding a little something extra to your bouquet(s)? What are you planning to do/what did you do to spice up your floral arrangements?

  3. Cuuuute!!! I was planning on adding a brooch to my bouquet, but I never thought to get them for the BMs, too. What a great idea! (that I'm totally stealing)
