Our Favorite Non Floral Bouquet Ideas
Feathers
When your wedding has a peacock theme, the bouquet gets to commit fully to it. Olivia carried nothing but peacock feathers, and the result is exactly as dramatic and polished as it sounds.

Wheat
We’re loving the wheat bouquet and boutonniere below, especially for a fall wedding. The boutonniere is from InStyle Weddings.
Sola Flowers
These “flowers” would trick most people from a distance – they’re actually tapioca wood!
Vintage Brooches
Paper roses in royal blue, white, and yellow coordinate exactly with the bridesmaids’ gowns, giving the whole bridal party a cohesive look that holds up from ceremony to reception.

Heirloom Brooch Bouquet
Sarah collected vintage flower brooches from family members, friends, and antique shops, then assembled them into a bouquet that carries more sentiment than any florist arrangement could. The matching brooch clip on her teal heels shows the theme went all the way.

Red and Turquoise Brooch Bouquet
Emery assembled this bouquet entirely from her grandmother’s brooches, mixing reds, blues, and golds into something personal and polished. The turquoise ribbon wrapping the stems pulls the whole palette together.

Purple and Cream Brooch Bouquet with Vintage Locket
Deep purple and cream brooches cluster into a round bouquet, with a vintage locket nestled in at the center, a personal touch that no florist arrangement could replicate.

Vintage Buttons
Cream, white, and yellow buttons in every size cluster into a round bouquet with a handmade, tactile quality. No florist required.

Clay
This bouquet composed of clay stephanotis flowers and Swarovski crystals is pretty realistic looking (not to mention beautiful)!
Tissue paper
The flowers in the bouquet and centerpiece below are all made of tissue paper.
Vegetables
Asparagus and kale look perfectly at home in these bouquets. Who would have ever guessed? The bouquet on the left is courtesy of Caroline Ghetes; the one on the right is from Sarah K. Chen.
Paper Butterflies
This bouquet sets our hearts “a-flutter.”
Wire
These bouquets are so unique. They are made of wire adorned with vintage crystals, pearls, and rhinestone buttons from old pieces of worn out jewelry.
Doorknobs
Photographed by SimplyBloom, this bouquet is made up of doorknobs and drawer pulls from Anthropologie!
Berries
We LOVE the way berries look in a bouquet, whether mixed in with flowers or on their own.
Fabric
Felt flowers in pink, purple, and blue make a bouquet that looks intentionally playful and holds its shape from ceremony to last dance. No wilting, no water.

Cotton
These images are actually from the same wedding that utilized the sola flowers in #3. Brandon and Kristen also included cotton balls in her bouquet, his boutonniere, and their decor!
Pinecones
This glittered pine cone bouquet would be perfect for a winter wedding.
Herbs
For those of you who feel like a bouquet just isn’t a bouquet without something fresh and green, what about herbs? Besides being budget-friendly, a bouquet made of herbs would smell so good.
Whether you mix non-floral objects with flowers, or go totally non-floral, these bouquets show that it can look absolutely stunning. There are so many more possibilities. We’ve seen bouquets that included seashells, buttons, ribbons, and maple leaves just to name a few.
