When Miranda Lambert walked down the aisle with her vintage brooch bouquet from The Ritzy Rose, she probably never expected her idea would spark one of the hottest wedding trends.
Newlywed, Lauren McGraw of Mattoon, Illinois loved Miranda's bouquet so much she wanted to replicate it for her own wedding. After realizing the expense of the jeweled bouquets, Lauren decided to turn to her own personal jewelry collection for inspiration.
After successfully creating her own bouquet, Lauren was encouraged to create bouquets for others. Lauren's new company "Treasured Petals" was born. Now Lauren is looking forward to creating personalized bouquets for future brides.
Brooch bouquets are a perfect way to incorporate family jewelry into your wedding without having to wear it.
Don't have any old jewelry just lying around? Lauren suggests having each person in your wedding party or at your bridal shower donate a brooch for your bouquet. These forever bouquets are the newest adaptation of "something old, something new, something borrowed and something blue" all in one bouquet.
