They were super easy to do, looked very nice, and the guests were tickled. I don't think the simple flower I used would suit a bouquet, but I wanted to share the crocheted wedding flower happiness :) For my wedding last year, I crocheted flowers for all the guests to wear, like [having mental blank - you know when people wear a flower on their lapel?].

For plenty of inspiration all in one place, you can't beat it. Your local library may have it, but purchasing is also a bargain when you consider how much wedding flowers can cost. Best of luck to you; I think a crocheted bouquet is a fantastic idea. Nikki Epstein has a book out full of crocheted flowers (appropriately called Crocheted Flowers, I believe).

I love it! strangely, I came across this free pattern for crocheted daffodils only half an hour ago... http://www.sugarncream.com/pattern.php?PID=1113 Hope it helps, I'm sure there are lots more patterns out there. Also, have you tried joining Ravelry? I recently got my invitation and signed up, it makes finding patterns that you need soooo much easier! and I'd love to see some photos of your bouquet when it's done! Such a great idea!
