If you are a bride that would prefer to have something other than fresh or silk flowers for your wedding bouquets I would like to share a few trendy options.

Butterfly Bouquet How-ToFloral
butterflies come on wires, making this project super simple. Tape the
wires close to the butterfly bodies with white floral tape to cover them
and create a uniform appearance. Then gather together a few butterflies
and tape their wires together using white floral tape. Stagger the
spacing, or tape the wires only at the ends so you'll have lots of wire
to bend. If the wires are short, or if you want the butterflies to
be able to be bent farther apart, attach individual butterflies or
clusters of butterflies to floral-wire stems (lay the wire from a
butterfly alongside a wire stem with a 1- or 2-inch overlap, and tape
the two together). Make several clusters, and tape them together to
create the desired shape. Finish the stem by wrapping it in ribbon.
