A Charming Tradition: The Bouquet Charm, a Must-Have for Protecting the Bride at Destination Weddings♡

Have you ever seen "charms on bouquets"?

Have you ever come across photos of foreign brides featuring charms on their bouquets?

The charms vary, including photo charms and alphabet charms.

Charms symbolize "protection" ♡

The "bouquet charms" attached to bouquets have a meaning of protection.

The bouquet that the bride carries is believed to protect her from evil spirits by the scent of flowers that demons dislike, and adding a protective charm offers even stronger protection for the bride, according to tradition.

If parents, grandparents, or close friends of the bride have passed away, it is common to place a photo in a locket charm to commemorate them.

It's lovely to feel as if your loved ones are watching over you from nearby ♡

There are various shapes like hearts and stars. Each charm carries a different meaning based on its motif.

☑ Heart: True love

☑ Star: Wishes come true

☑ Key: No worries about possessions

☑ Dog: Loved by many

☑ Ribbon: Bonds of the heart

☑ Anchor: Stable life

☑ Clover: Symbol of good luck

Using a Vuitton padlock as a bouquet charm, and then turning the key and lock into necklaces to share with your partner after the wedding is also a wonderful idea＊

Initials symbolize “deepening the bond,” so adding your and your partner's alphabet charms seems like a good idea too ♩

Making charms that reflect your aspirations for the future or messages from your partner is also a great idea ♡
