Not traditional: Ideas of what to carry down the aisle?

I am not traditional and i am really not a girl that likes flowers. What are some good ideas of what to carry down the aisle? As of now, i am having the wedding outside on a Sunday afternoon. I am not very religious either, which is what makes it even harder for me to find something. Suggestions??

  • A cute clutch purse is the only thing I can think of.  Hope it helps.

  • i have seen button and fabric bouqettes. they look super cute and i think that would be a good fit for an outdoor wedding. I think the clutch idea would look good as well.
  • There were some fantastic fabric bouquets made out of recycled materials at the bridal shop I was in over the weekend. Her site is etsy.com/shop/beautifulagainbridal. I thought they were absolutely gorgeous and if I didn't already have my heart set on flowers, I would get one made for myself.

    Other ideas... a fan, a parosole, a basket, a hanging lantern, feathers... check out offbeatbride.com for more ideas. Good luck!

  • I'm carrying a bouquet but all my girls are carrying clutch purses.

  • love the idea of the parosoles, or even colorful traditional unbrellas depending on how off-beat/non-trad your wedding is.

    Girls could wear gloves, sort of old time-y/vintage, and it would look like thier hands were busy enough.

  • Rosary, Bible, feathers, framed photo, lantern, if your venue allows it and you have a dog you could walk it down the aisle, strand of pearls or necklace from an important female figure in your life, a gift to hand to groom's parents...

    Hope these help!
