As I gazed at the new Trend Board on the Wedding Paper Divas office wall this morning, I couldn’t take my eyes off a beautiful, wispy gown made of white feathers.  As I do almost daily (okay…who am I kidding?  Hourly.), I began to imagine how my wedding would have looked had I chosen this theme.  The soft, flow-y feathers combined with the stark modernness of pure white will give any wedding a ethereal feeling that won’t soon be forgotten.

Polka Dot Bride recently lauded the idea of using an alternative to a traditional bouquet of flowers for your trip down the aisle. From beads, shells and feathers to bridal bouquets made out of paper or fabric, she gives a wealth of ideas about how to add some creative flair to your big day. I personally adore fresh flowers so much that I’m not sure I could part with the idea, but what do you think about these creative twists on the classic bouquet? Rant or rave about it!
