What else can brides carry other than a bouquet?

Is there anything at all that I can use to replace my bouquet? I am having a beach wedding and I am trying to think of something creative that I can carry other than a bouquet. My girls are all carrying parasols(paper umbrellas). Any suggestions?

What else can brides carry other than a bouquet?
Hi and congratulations on your upcoming wedding!





You don't need to carry a whole bouquet, but I would think you would want to carry something. I try to encourage brides to carry a single rose tied with a nice silk ribbon. It looks elegant, and is easy to do! Or, you could carry two roses and hand one to your mother and one to the grooms mother - then you would be done! I like the parasol idea for your bridesmaids - another idea since you will be on the beach would be nice paper fans. Good luck!
Reply:Carry a decorative raffia fan. They're super adorable and practical!
Reply:Why not carry a white parasol...then pass it off to the maid of honor when you get down the aisle for her to hold...It would look great!
Reply:When Beyonce's sister got married (it was a tropical/beach wedding), the floral bouquets did not come on time. So the mother, ingeniously, got these large shells for all the girls to carry. Perhaps you could have a conch shell filled with orchids (or whatever flower of your choice).
Reply:don't carry anything. That would be unique!


Sun tan lotion would look a little silly.


Carry a big beach hat with a white veil on it?
Reply:A Flower Ring Corsage with long delicate ribbons that match your wedding colors..... Worn on your left ring finger.


(Have the florist make the Flower Ring Corsage to fit your ring finger but not to tight using flowers that last long in the heat of the sun since its a beach wedding)


When you walk down the Isle holding your hands together it will give an appearance of holding a beautiful little bouquet. Then when it comes time for your very soon to be hubby to place "The Wedding ring" on your left ring finger he will take the Flower Ring Corsage from your left finger and place it on your right ring finger. Then he will place "The Wedding ring" on your left finger.
Reply:Anything you want, just as long as it is NOT A BABY! LOL! Seriously, perhap your Bible?
Reply:A colorful parasol with your monogram on it and flowers cascading down. A fan with flowers attached to the handle. A single red rose. A wrist corsage. There are so many things that you can do, I think it is so cool that you are being unique. Have a beautiful wedding! Good Luck!
Reply:a fan or a parasol as well.

Reply:carry nothing, tie a beautiful blue ribbon around your wrists and let it flow as you walk
Reply:Well go extreme if your getting flowers, go with the theme.


Try some shells, colours that will go with the scene.





Or try a huge unique parasols, kick your bridemades arses, and look the best. Big white, laces, i can't really suggest much else xD
Reply:You could have a large parasol with flowers on it. I have seen some people just carry a single flower or a couple flowers. You could carry a small basket of sea shells. I have also seen a bouquet of just ribbons.
Reply:a little wristlet.
