    Our wedding will be in a small town in Iowa in June, and I'm trying to find some images of bouquets or flower arrangements that look like they were just picked from the fields, not the blunt stems with a big ball of flowers on the top (it's beautiful, but just not what I'm looking for).

    Has anyone seen some very natural looking flower arrangements (black-eyed susans, queen anne's lace, etc) from prairie or wild flowers?

    Something like these flowers:

    Thanks for your help!

    Oooh...see the many bouquet pics on www.butterflyhollow.com. They make their own bouquets for their brides incorporating whatever's blooming on their land at the time. They're lovely and just as you describe. One from their site:

    Oh my goodness! That's pretty much exactly what I've been imagining! I'm going to show these to my florist (once I find one...). Thank you so much!
