Cat's animal themed brooch bouquet

Guess who just shot a wedding this weekend where the bride carried a brooch bouquet!...

brooch bouquet!


Me! I did! How amazing is this baby!?

The bride, Cat, didn't make this -- she went to Amanda for that -- but she found all the pieces herself, mostly from Goodwills (she admitted to me that her talents do not lie in the craftiness, but she does has that convenient knack of finding awesome stuff on the cheap). And most of the brooches have special significance to her, especially the animal ones...

I'll have more photos from Cat and Jim's animal filled backyard wedding soon. I just wanted to share my excitement over this bouquet in the meantime.
