You are not allowed to bring your bouquet back from bahamas so I'm thinking of something like this

    You can't ship it back either?  Like mail it to yourself?

    cookdt5312014 brooch bouquets are super pricey... i dont know if the price is different if you went out and purchased your own brooches and diy or not but i would just have to do flowers there and leave it in order to cut cost and then get a replica done here by a florist...

    @cookdt5312014, Etsy from what I saw had cheaper brooch bouquets.  I did order from a vendor that was $900+ but I loved the handle and she uses all swarovski crystals.  I saw vendors on etsy from $300-$600.  I don't know what exactly you are looking for but most of the time when it is that much it is because they are using high end crystals.

    Considering your situation, a brooch bouquet would be a perfect idea.  Also making them appears to be easy if you have all the supplies.  If you have time, take a look at some youtube.com videos and see if that helps.

    Hope this helps!
