Awhile back I had an idea to use peacock feathers in our wedding. I thought they would look beautiful with navy or teal or green dresses and beige linens. But… then we changed our colors and the rest is history. I forgot to blog about it until this morning when I was cleaning out my old “favorites” bookmarks (since I bookmark everything, maybe vaguely / kinda’ tidying is a better description). Anyway, here are some cool plumes I found:
From Oriental Trading Company: $7.95 for 24 pieces:
From Lamplight Feather: $48 for 100 pieces:
From Plumes and Feathers: prices vary depending on size and quantity
One of the girls I knew included a peacock feather in her invitations to display her color theme. She saved money on buying plain white invitations. She tied it all together with a blue ribbon that matched with the feather.
I love that I was trying to find a way to incooperate peakcock feathers into my wedding but it didnt work out either
i have never really notice the color scheme of peacock feather, but they really are lovely.

Lindsay, I’m going the ostritch feather route too. I’ve seen some fabulous setups done with them, like this one:

I am getting married in April at a local Zoo and am trying to incorporate peacock feathers into my invitation and my flowers. Thanks for the tips, please send me anything else you have! Here’s a site that has gorgeous invitations w/peacock feathers, a bit expensive but definitely distinctive! http://www.ranideshpande.com/WeddingStationeryNew/Quill/quill.htm
Here’s another site with some nice stationary and journals w/ peacock feathers~ http://www.thekrishnastore.com/Detail.bok?no=3973&bar=_shp_new
I am getting married in September 2008 and I am having a Peacock wedding - invitaions, working them into the bouquets, center pieces, and having the color scheme throughout! I thought it would be something different than the traditional fall themed weddings.
Kim,
There hasn’t been much activity on this page in a long time!! I am moving forward with the peacock theme as well, our wedding is in April of this year. We are also putting them everywhere!! I created our invitations from scratch and they turned out really nice! Let me know if you’re interested in more info….by the way, i found the cheapest feathers were at Ostrich.com. They just had a 1/2 off sale last week, too bad you missed it!
My family and I are planning a suprise party for my Nonnie’s 75th birthday…our theme is ‘Pretty as a Peacock’! I “googled” it and your page came up with these great sites! thanks!
could you provide me with some pics of your ideas. i want to use peacock feathers in my wedding as well.
Sorry Juel, I decided against using peacock colors and feathers for my wedding so I don’t have any new ideas. If I think of any I will post them though!
I am having a wedding with peacock theme and colors. I need ideas of how to incorporate peacock feathers into the wedding.
I am incorporating feathers into my bouquet (white ostrich) and peacock feathers into my bridesmaids. I am also using pew bows with peacock feathers coming out of the tops. i also created my invitations with real peacock feathers in each.
Does anyone have any left over peacock stuff from their wedding they want to get rid of?
My daughter got married March 24, 2007, her bridesmaids dresses were sapphire blue and we used peacock feathers with them. I would share pictures and possibly have some items to sell.
I am getting married in August of this year and I am also using peacock feathers. Sue I would love to talk to you about some ideas and possibly buying some things from you. My girls are wearing midnight navy dresses and I have ordered wildflowers for them with peacock feathers tucked in. However I am considering getting rid of their flowers altogether and giving them fans made out of feathers instead. We are getting married outside and August is such a hot month!
