Flower alternatives

I once saw a unique bouquet that was comprised of Christmas ornaments.  Neat!  I've never been a "flowers" kind of girl (I never know what I'd do with them after receiving them), so I'm on the lookout for alternatives to the traditional floral bouquet and wedding floral decor.

And aside from flowers generally not being my style, I might save some money from floral arrangements doing it this way. :)

While I can't find a photo of the aforementioned bouquet now, here are some that follow along the same lines:

Oh wait, here was the bouquet!
