We've built our business on textural pieces like the handkerchief invitations and letterpress invitations, so you know I'm a sucker for anything textile and nostalgic. How gorgeous is this bouquet from Cotton Gin Events? It's made from vintage muslin, linen, and the bride's own sentimental collection of fabrics.
The bride's grandmother's vintage pillow case became roses with whipstitching along the edges.
The buttons were a part of an aunt's collection, and the tulle came from the bride's mother's wedding dress.
Can you think of a more perfect way to carry the memory of a loved one on your wedding day? Because I definitely cannot. You can keep it forever! I think sentimental fabric bouquets are about to give the floral industry a run for their money.
The ladies at Cotton Gin (another Mississippi-made company!) create custom bridal bouquets starting at $200, and smaller bridesmaid bouquets starting at $125.

I absolutely love this idea. Much better than having a dried up bouquet sitting around for years and years...!
I loved this idea! I just got married and decided to make my own fabric wedding bouquet, 7 for my bridesmaids and 1 to toss. My bridesmaids loved the keepsake. It makes a great gift. My own bouquet now sits as the centerpiece in my dining room. I had so much fun making these that I decided to open up an Etsy site!
