Here it is!

It’s from the Etsy seller nicolasacicero. She was great and was able to work with my short time frame. I showed her my inspiration color (see shoes below) and told her I wanted some iridescent brooches with pearl accents and that my colors were lilac, ivory and silver. She did such an awesome job!

Thank you! I highly recommend her! Her prices are very reasonable too, because I didn’t want to spend $500 on my bouquet, lol. I’m suuuper happy with the pics she’s sent so far and look forward to seeing it! I will update with my own pics when it arrives π

Thanks ladies!! I actually comparison shopped because I’m a flower lover for sure, but it was going to be $250 for a floral bridal bouquet in my area, so I thought why not spend the same amount on something that will last forever? I love bling so I decided this would be perfect!
I think all said and done with shipping it’s only $220. I placed the order on Dec. 18th, so about 5 1/2 weeks.

@creativeplannertobee: Aw thank you!!
@Giraffelover: I priced out how much it would cost if I tried to do it myself, and I definitely think this was the cost effective way to go in my case, haha! I’m not the greatest DIY girl, and brooches are pretty expensive if you’re not buying in bulk. I commend anyone that makes their own!
