Bridal Bouquet
Ok so I found this one bouquet thing in a magazine and can't find it anywhere! HELP! It's a ribbon (thick) that ties around your bouquet and has a little picture frame (think half of a locket only square) to memoralize someone. It may even have printing on it with that person's name and stuff.. Does anyone know what I'm talking about and where I can find it!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

Does the magazine not have a "Where to Buy" listing at the back of the issue?
That would be a start.

I've seen what you're talking about, although I don't have a picture anymore. Just find a small locket size frame (might have to hunt, but I'd try a craft store first) and tie it onto the ribbon you use to tie your flowers. It will be much cheaper, I can assure you.

I did the same and i loved looking at it knowing why it was there (the pink tea roses mean "i'll always remember").

She is right! you might also be able to find the supplies at the craft store to make your own customizeable one!

I agree with the craft store idea!!! You can get exactly what you want and probably for a much cheaper price!!!  This can be especially meaningful if you want to have someone there that cannot be there... like a close deceased family member. Look around at craft stores, try ebay, Amazon, and shopzilla/ I also googled "bridal bouquet charms, lockets" and came up with some good sites:
http://www.artbeads.com/charms-picture-pendants.html
http://www.preciousaccents.com/c-lockets.html (a little more pricey, but better quality)
Good luck, that sounds like it will add something sentimental for your day!!

I would look in the mag if I still had it. It wasn't mine, just looking at a friend's. The craft store idea is great! I'll start looking around!1
Thanks!!!

I did this myself.
We hand tied all our bouquets with ribbion and I had 2 lockets on mine. Each was 2 sided (found at Big Lots) with a pic. of my Grandfather and I as a toddler and the last pic of my Grandfather and I together. (2 grandfathers... on locket for each).
I had my bouquet tied in 5 mini bouquets and then in one huge one. I seperated them at the reception and gave one to each mother and one to each grandmother. Of course the ones with the lockets went to their respective wife.
While my bouquet was hand tied, I found the pearl holder at Walmart and liked so slid it over the hand tying.

That is such a good Idea I wanted a small personal touch for my bouquet and I wasn't sure what to add but the charm with the picture is a great idea

I think I found what you were looking for when I was flipping thru a Jean M catalog.
Here is the link to there sight
www.myjeanm.com
Unfortunatly I couldn't find it on the websight, so I don't have a picture, but if you have their catalog, or order it, it is on page 188. it's called the 'Memory Bouquet Frame'.
