DIY Brooch Bouquet...HELP..

nursing2u

OK... So while I have been at home laying around recovering(haha)...I decided I really want to make a Brooch Bouquet.. Now that I have decided I am trying to figure out what color I want... Our colors are Pink and Black.. my dress is Diamond White.. (ok..you've got the background info)...

oops.. my headpiece looks like this:



and so I dont know if I want a brooch bouquet like this:

 to match my headband..   OR


 to represent my PINK... my shoes are Pink also...

I first thought of pink and crystal brooches... over Pink and White flowers... But now I am wondering which one will look the best....  or... Pink flowers and crystal brooches

Any input... I would appreciate... and If you've seen some really nice brooches...(pics are great)...

Thanks.....

I think anyone of them would look great! I say search for which brooches you can find easily and go with that. I wonder how hard it will be to find pink brooches...IDK. I do love the classic look of the rhinestone and pearl one though. 

I like this one, but dang...the cost!!! http://www.etsy.com/listing/84314960/pink-brooch-bouquet-breast-cancer

Edited: Can you add a pink satin ribbon around the handle for the bouquet and go with the classic pearl and rhinestone bouquet?

Cha.. I have been looking all over.. and found them on ebay (with a lil help from our ebay queen).. and etsy.. and then I found a website where they are a really great price... and THERE ARE A LOTTTT of pink brooches....

I love the pink.. but the more I look.. the more I really like the classic romantic white and crystal with pearl look... Soooo.. I am still figuring it out...

I just found out from the Chapel that they won't charge anything extra for me to bring my own brooch bouquet because they consider them sentimental and all that...

Sooo.... am I still looking for pink brooches??? lol

I like diva's idea. or you could go with the pearl/crystal brooches and do pink rosettes? what color pink? hot pink? soft pink? baby girl pink?

nursing2u

Tash maybe I can do what Cha said and what Diva said also... and add that POP of pink.. and I actually like the hot pink, and soft pink... So I could use like pink pearl hairpins or something like that the bouquet...
