I'm in love :: Princess Lasertron.

Yesterday afternoon, B & I met with a potential wedding client, who told us about Princess Lasertron - the designer making her button bridal bouquet. The second our meeting was over, I jumped online to find out more...


Let's just say, I'm absolutely in love. I'm a huge fan of, what I call, the "non-generic" wedding. It breaks my heart to watch those wedding shows on TV (esp. the ones where the couple has some insane $$$ budget) where every element of the couple's wedding is the same old thing that everyone has done a million times. So, when I find artisans creating things that really add a unique & memorable element to your big day - well, let's just say, I'm sold!

Megan Hunt, the Omaha-based artist behind Princess Lasertron, creates bouquets, boutonnieres, pins, barrettes (and more!) out of buttons & hand-cut/hand-stitched felt pieces... custom pieces are designed with the help/input of the client, using the wedding's color palette as the starting point. Megan's inventory of buttons is quite impressive (and very organized!) - this definitely appeases both my love of color & my OCD/organizing thing ;)


Here's a great image (by photographer, Becky Novacek) of Megan (right) and her bff, Kristal (left) on Megan's wedding day, this past May. Those PL bouquets look great!... (And don't even get me started on Megan's totally fabulous wedding dress! See a better shot of it, here) ::

This is so beautiful!! I'd love to have these for when I get married. As a jewelry maker, I'd always thought I'd make myself some beaded flowers, but now I kinda want these more ;)
