A popular choice is Swarovski crystal monograms using the bride and groom’s initials.  They may choose to use the initial for each of their first names as well as the initial for the groom’s last name.  Six mm faux diamonds can also be inserted into the center of each flower to give the bouquet a dazzling new look.



Besides monograms, most online companies have the same selection of jewels:  pearl clusters, bows, snowflake, bee, frog, dragonfly, starfish, flip flop sandal, palm tree, butterfly and crucifix.  The bee only comes in clear crystal and the frog and palm tree come only in peridot crystals.  The flip flop sandal comes in blue or pink.  Pearls come in pink, yellow, white, blue, green, lavendar, peach, champagne and platinum.  The bows come in a wide range of colors with gold or silver plating.

The prices range from $12.00 (snowflake) to $20.00 (dragonfly) each.  Some are sold individually while others have a discount if you purchase in groups of ten.  The crystal bee sells for $18.00 each and $153.00 for ten.  That would be a savings of $27.00.  The starfish sells for $13.00 each and $110.00 for ten.  That would be a $20.00 discount.

The bouquet jewelry should be chosen to reflect the bride’s personal taste or reflect the theme of the wedding.  Starfish, flip flop sandals and palm trees would be perfect for a beach theme wedding.  The crystal crucifix would reflect a more solemn and spiritual wedding and could also be used around the holidays.

The bride and groom can continue to use the jewelry long after the wedding for holiday centerpieces and floral arrangements.  They should choose the colors carefully, because many online companies advise they are non returnable and non refundable.
