The idea may be new, but the jewelry is vintage. Bridal brooch bouquets are usually made from the jewelry of the bride’s mother or grandmother. We already predicted jewelry in bridal bouquets as a trend for 2012 and it could easily be your “something old.”  Brooch bouquets are the perfect compliment to a vintage-inspired wedding day dress like the ones we featured from Jenny Packham Spring 2012 Collection.
