Well now, if you’re thinkin’ about what your bridesmaids can carry instead of them fancy flowers, there’s plenty o’ things that’ll do just fine. Not every wedding gotta follow them same old rules, and if you’re lookin’ for somethin’ a bit different, then I reckon you’re in luck.
First off, don’t let nobody tell ya that them gals gotta be holdin’ a big ol’ bouquet of flowers. It’s your day, and you’re the one that gets to call the shots. Flowers are nice, sure, but there’s plenty o’ other things they can carry instead, and let me tell ya, they might even stand out more!
One thing they could carry is lanterns. Yup, lanterns! You know, them pretty little light holders. They come in all shapes and sizes, and they can be real nice, especially if you’re havin’ an outdoor wedding or somethin’ at night. You just put a candle in there, and it’ll shine all bright and pretty as they walk down the aisle. Ain’t that somethin’ special?
Another idea is them hand fans. Now, I ain’t talkin’ ’bout them electric fans you plug in. No, no. I’m talkin’ ‘bout them old-fashioned hand fans, you know the ones they used to carry in the hot summer days. They’re light, easy to carry, and can add a real charming touch to your ceremony. Plus, it’ll help the gals stay cool, especially if it’s a warm day.
- Books. Yessir, books! If you got a literary theme or just want somethin’ simple, a good ol’ book might do the trick. They can hold a pretty little book or even a journal. It’s different and still looks real sweet.
- Feathers. Some folks like to go fancy with feathers. Big ol’ feather bouquets or even just a single feather in the hand. It’s light, airy, and adds a touch of class, without bein’ too much.
- Pashmina Scarves. Now, if you’re weddin’ is happenin’ in the cooler months, them bridesmaids might want somethin’ warm like a pashmina scarf. They can drape it over their shoulder, and it’ll look elegant as can be. Plus, it’ll keep ‘em cozy if the weather’s turnin’ chilly.
Wreaths are another good choice. Ain’t just for Christmas, y’know! You can have ‘em carry little flower wreaths, or even ones made out of greenery. They’ll look fresh and natural, and make it feel like somethin’ out of the garden, right? Simple, yet beautiful.
If you want somethin’ really unique, how ‘bout a single flower stem? Yep, not a whole bouquet, just one pretty flower, maybe a rose or a daisy, something that stands out. They’ll feel real special carryin’ that down the aisle, and it won’t be too heavy or hard to manage, either. Just a simple touch of nature.
Now, some people might suggest carryin’ a mason jar, filled with flowers or candles or somethin’ else, but that’s a bit much for some. It might look cute if you’re goin’ for that rustic country look, but it ain’t for everyone. Don’t be afraid to try somethin’ a little different. Heck, if you’re really feelin’ bold, you could have them carry some colorful ribbons tied up in pretty bows! Just picture it—those ribbons floatin’ in the wind as they walk down the aisle. It’s gonna be beautiful.
But let me tell you, it don’t always have to be something they carry in their hands. Some bridesmaids don’t carry nothin’ at all! And that’s fine too. Maybe they just walk down the aisle with their hands free, looking all graceful. Ain’t nothing wrong with that, I promise you. It’s your day, and you do what makes you happy!
So, to sum it up, there’s plenty o’ things your bridesmaids can carry instead of flowers. Lanterns, fans, books, feathers, pashmina scarves, wreaths, or even just one flower. It don’t matter as long as it’s somethin’ that fits your style and makes your big day feel just right. Don’t let nobody tell you there’s only one way to do it. Make it yours, and enjoy every minute of it!
