Fan Bouquet

Fan Bouquet of Red Roses

Fan bouquets are traditionally used in weddings by either the bride or bride's maids. These simple yet elegant bouquets are a perfect alternative to the traditional bridal bouquet and make for wonderful memories.

These are traditionally made with a fancy lacy fan that have a bouquet of flowers covering the fan that conform to the general shape. Beads, ribbon and baby's breath can be used as accents. The handle can, however, be made with thick paper and anything you like. They are easy to make yourself if you choose to and of course you can pick any flowers and accents you like.

One idea is to make very simple ones for your guests and then more elaborate fan bouquets for you and your bride's maids. They make for wonderful wedding gifts for your guests and will be treasured. They may last a life time if you choose to go with artificial flowers but fresh flowers can be used as well.

Add a touch of elegance to your wedding or maybe just an outdoor event that you want to spruce up a bit. Most everyone loves flowers and will show appreciation at receiving something like this as a gift.
