    I love #4. I am having more of a vintage wedding as well and these seem the most antique looking.

    I thought 2 was the most lovely and "Mad Men" esque... 4 is pretty, but seems VERY vintage - like 1800s. Don't know what era you're going for, but 2 was much prettier to me personally!

     

    ALSO - could all the bridesmaids get a different brooch?

    I like them all...what if they each got their own? That would put a special touch on it for a gift :)

    I think that #5 matches the earrings the best, and is beautiful, but #4 is my favorite of the choices.
