Do You Know Feather Bouquets?
Feather bouquets, popular in overseas weddings, are wedding bouquets that mix real "bird feathers" instead of fake ones among the flowers.
Characterized by a rustic and bohemian atmosphere, feather bouquets are perfect for the trendy Boho weddings (bohemian × New York's Soho).
Not only are they rare and innovative, but the charm of feather bouquets lies in their adult and sophisticated design ♡
They pair excellently with wildflowers like the currently popular King Protea and pampas grass resembling Japanese silver grass.
While feather bouquets have traditionally been used overseas, they have recently been gradually increasing in Japan as well!
Are Feathers Forbidden at Weddings?
While they look modern and stylish, the concern arises: "Are feathers okay for weddings?"
It is well-known that fur is a no-go at weddings, as it evokes images of killing and wearing fur items is considered bad manners for both the bride and groom as well as the guests.
Unlike fur, feathers are not explicitly labeled as a no-go. White feathers that evoke the image of angel wings are often used in feather showers.
However, some older individuals may feel some resistance to bird feathers used in feather bouquets.
If you decide to incorporate a feather bouquet, it may be better to have a party that reflects your unique style without sticking too strictly to tradition.
