i think it would look awesome! i love that idea, maybe tied with a really pretty ribbon so it can "flow in the wind" would be beautiful. A single bird in paradise might be really cool too depending on what kind of bouquet you are having.

My bouquet is going to be real touch flowers and feathers but it's still $110. I was told by a couple of different vendors that usually silk bouquets are comparable in price to live bouquets but one just lasts a long time while the other only lasts a few days.

Thanks guys! I don't want it to seem cheap - even though that is part of it - but rather simple. I don't know what I'm going to do for my bouquet, so I'll just pick a flower to match. Thanks again!

I think the idea of a single gerber daisy is great.

 

I decided to make my BMs bouquets for two reasons: 1. Cost--I think that the flowers started at $85 per bouquet (I got all of the flowers, ribbon, etc for 5 BMs and 1 JB for $115 at Michael's) and 2. You can't bring back real flowers and I thought it would be nice for our AHR (if we have one) that the girls would all have the same flowers!
