I love the idea of using a feather Especially if the bride is carrying a feather bouquet.
Then of course, there is Etsy. Full of unique creations!

You can of course use different things. I’ve seen beautifulraw edged silk flowers in fabrics of the bridesmaids gowns, coral and seashells for a beachside wedding, rust coloured leaves in autumn, herbs at a garden wedding bound with ribbon, wheat at a farm wedding. The only limit is your imagination!
Oh clever! I love the peacock feather, especially if that theme or color was carried out through the wedding!

My husband wore a moss gathering cut into the shape of a heart with a bit of kangaroo paw on it. Not flowery at all, and he really loved it. It’s aged well, too-we’ve been married almost 6 months now and it still looks perfect!
