Wedding Handkerchiefs for Brides and More
Wedding days are full of emotion and there’s sure to be a few tears of joy shed. A wedding handkerchief is a great item for not only the bride to carry but also for the mothers of the bride and groom and bridal party to have on hand for those teary eyed moments.
Bride handkerchiefs can be embroidered or have lace trim and styles vary from one hanky to another. Types of embroidery can be as simple as a monogram or intricately detailed stitches and patterns with colorful threads. Hankies with lace trim can have lightweight floral lace or delicate designs where the lace looks like small white pearls.
An Irish linen handkerchief may have one corner fancifully decorated in white lace on a white hanky while another hanky can have an embroidered design like a butterfly, daisy or fall maple leaves in colorful threads that tie into a seasonal wedding, perfect for spring or fall.
Lace trimmed hankies can be personalized with an embroidered name, wedding date or monogram. By choosing a blue thread for the embroidery, the bride’s hanky suddenly becomes the something blue at the wedding.
A mother of bride handkerchief or father of bride handkerchief makes a great gift too. These hankies come with a thoughtful note of appreciation for your parents support and love through the years.

This is very good information and I liked how your pictures reflected a little tradition fused with some contemporary symbols to make it more special for the bride, groom, or family. I was just looking at another site that had great embroidery and perhaps it will help other bride as well. The site was called http://www.weddinghandkerchiefshop.com and 1 of the best things about the handkerchiefs is that when you purchase them, they can be created as bonnets for your baby, kept as a keepsake for when they grow older and used as a handkerchief when for a wedding day. I thought that was an especially wonderful way to start and pass along an hierloom.
