But there\u2019s no rule that says they\u2019re required wrapping for wedding bouquet stems. We\u2019re huge fans of using interestingly textured, unusually patterned and\/or heirloom fabrics and other materials to bind bridal bouquets. Some of our favorite ribbon alternatives include lace (especially black), raffia, twine, silk handkerchiefs, crocheted doilies, bear grass, leather and suede. Also alluring: mixing a simple or rough-hewn wrap material with a contrastingly delicate or ornamental accent, or vice versa. For instance, fine lace accented with wood buttons, or twine encircled with pearl rosary beads. And, of course, there\u2019s nothing more meaningful than a bouquet wrapped with a bit of lace from the hem of your grandmother\u2019s wedding gown, or adorned with your great-aunt\u2019s heirloom locket.<\/p>\n<p>Find more hand-tied bouquet inspiration, and the week\u2019s wedding news, events &amp; tips, in today\u2019s week\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.weddingsinhouston.com\/articlesdetail.aspx?id=482\">Wednesday Wedding Buzz<\/a>!<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-5485\" title=\"Intriguing Ideas for Hand-Tied Bouquets ~ Houston Wedding Blog\" src=\"https:\/\/www.weddingsinhouston.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/Hand-Tied-Bouquets1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"660\" height=\"439\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.weddingsinhouston.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/Hand-Tied-Bouquets1.jpg 660w, https:\/\/www.weddingsinhouston.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/Hand-Tied-Bouquets1-300x199.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 660px) 100vw, 660px\" \/><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-5486\" title=\"Intriguing Ideas for Hand-Tied Bouquets ~ Houston Wedding Blog\" src=\"https:\/\/www.weddingsinhouston.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/Hand-Tied-Bouquets2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"660\" height=\"492\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.weddingsinhouston.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/Hand-Tied-Bouquets2.jpg 660w, https:\/\/www.weddingsinhouston.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/Hand-Tied-Bouquets2-300x223.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 660px) 100vw, 660px\" \/><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-5487\" title=\"Intriguing Ideas for Hand-Tied Bouquets ~ Houston Wedding Blog\" src=\"https:\/\/www.weddingsinhouston.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/Hand-Tied-Bouquets3.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"660\" height=\"457\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.weddingsinhouston.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/Hand-Tied-Bouquets3.jpg 660w, https:\/\/www.weddingsinhouston.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/Hand-Tied-Bouquets3-300x207.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 660px) 100vw, 660px\" \/><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-5488\" title=\"Intriguing Ideas for Hand-Tied Bouquets ~ Houston Wedding Blog\" src=\"https:\/\/www.weddingsinhouston.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/Hand-Tied-Bouquets4.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"660\" height=\"437\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.weddingsinhouston.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/Hand-Tied-Bouquets4.jpg 660w, https:\/\/www.weddingsinhouston.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/Hand-Tied-Bouquets4-300x198.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 660px) 100vw, 660px\" \/><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-5489\" title=\"Intriguing Ideas for Hand-Tied Bouquets ~ Houston Wedding Blog\" src=\"https:\/\/www.weddingsinhouston.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/Hand-Tied-Bouquets5.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"660\" height=\"457\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.weddingsinhouston.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/Hand-Tied-Bouquets5.jpg 660w, https:\/\/www.weddingsinhouston.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/Hand-Tied-Bouquets5-300x207.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 660px) 100vw, 660px\" \/><br \/>\nCredits (Photos top to bottom, left to right): <a href=\"http:\/\/blog.karentran.com\/bouquet-monday\/bouquet-monday-by-aileen-a-little-bit-country\/\">Karen Tran Florals<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/greerloves.blogspot.com\/2011\/06\/summer-picnic-wedding-ideas-flowers-and.html\">Kellie Kano Photography via Greer Loves<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.calierose.com\/blog\/melissas-organic-rustic-wedding-flowers\/\">Heather Bliss via Callie Rose<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.meredithperdue.com\/mt-hood-wedding\">Meredith Perdue<\/a> (next 2 images), <a href=\"http:\/\/www.4seasonsflowers.com\/wedding-galleria\/bridal-bouquets\/\">Four Seasons Flowers<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.shannon-kelley.com\/blog\/2011\/09\/featured-heart-love-weddings\/\">Shannon Kelley Photography<\/a> (last 2 images)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Satin ribbon and pearl pins are a classic choice for a hand-tied wedding bouquet.
