    I am having a button bouquet by the amazing PrincessLasertron.

    But I am really wanting flowers worked in there also.

    Would it look strange for my bridesmaids to carry real flower bouquets? Or could I work the button/felt flowers with real flowers in my bouquet?  I am really torn. Here is a picture of a button bouquet (not mine). And I am thinking about carnations or calla lilies.

    The first one is the actually bouquet. I can't get this one to post.. GRRRR..

    The second one is something thought I could mix them in with flowers

    Does Princess Lasertron have any photos of her brides that used her button bouquets and had real flowers?  They may give you some ideas.  I think carnations and buttons work...  Have fun figuring it all out!

    I agree with Bananapants- seeing a photo would really help.

    Can you DIY some button flowers and try it out yourself?

    OKay so here is what the felt/button flowers look like. I have never seen them mixed together. But I was thinking maybe the plan buttons with out the felt flowers mixed in with the flowers. Since I am using buttons from my great grandma, grandma, the shirt my dad met my mom in and other buttons that mean something to me and my family.

     The picture came from princess lasertron blog

    @MegK- those look great!  Love the buttons.  Reminds me of bouquet jewelry.

    I'm thinking that if the felt flowers are color coordinated with the real flowers it should look great.

    I don't think it'd be weird -- it's just another thing that will make you more bride-y than your wedding party =). But I have noticed in pics of her work that the bouquet is smaller than what you may usually carry if you had real flowers...so I'd just make sure the bouquets your BMs are holding are of the same size, otherwise that might look a little odd!
