Seashell Bouquet

My florist who is doing my AHR reception flowers just gave me an early wedding present. She made a bouquet out of seashells for me to take (if I wanted to) to my DW. I think it's the absolute sweetest gesture in the world, yet I don't know if anyone has used anything like this as their bouquet. I'm sure it took her hours of work to do and I would love to be able to preserve the bouquet that I used on my wedding day forever. What do you think of it? Would it be weird to have this instead of real flowers? I'll try to paste an image of what it looks like here....

Gorgeous and so unique!! I totally think that you should use it. You would definitely be able to preserve it--your so lucky (mine is getting left behind)!

That is so cool. Your friend must be quite crafty!!!

That's really nice. I might do something like this for my bms. I think it's perfect for a dw.

That is very pretty. I actually considered a seashell bouquet b/c I saw pics of one a girl used in her DW and it was GORGEOUS!

This is the pic I have with the bride's seashell bouquet. For some reason I can't find the close-up, so this one is really kind of hard to see ...

i think it is a cute idea, i would just be afraid it would break in transit.

That's really nice - i would definitely use it. How unique!!!

It's beautiful! Absolutely take it with you - but take it in your hand luggage.

ive never seen or even heard of anythign like that. what a nice thing. and thanks for showing a photo because i wouldnt have imagined it to be as intricate as it really was. she must have spent a long time making that.
