    Since I’m native american and am having a native american/traditional wedding. In place of bouquets myself and the girls will be carrying these

    ^Something like that for me and not so extravagant for the bridesmaids. The groomsmen will be wearing these

    ^With different colors to match the color scheme.

    Now what I’m thinking, while I could go out and buy fake rose petals (I don’t feel right killing a bunch of flowers for this purpose), is that instead of flowers for my flower girls to drop I could get them to drop small white feathers. I think it would be cute and fit the theme a bit more since no one will be holding flowers. We will have flowers on the arch and centerpieces but that’s it.

    The feathers would be like this

    I will be also using feathers in my hair as well, not a big feather head band but a couple small feathers twisted into the braids I will have

    So any ideas or opinions?

    Native American weddings are beautiful…and yes, the feathers are a great idea if you are not into killing extra flowers. They go nicely with the theme and the “bouquets” (not sure what they are called!)

    There are some really good (higher quality) silk rose/flower petals you can get that look just like the real thing.

    What about having her drop the feathers and petals/fake petals? I think that mix would look great, but maybe test them out first and see which idea you like better
