A Norwegian Wedding in Gothenburg — and a Bouquet Made of Lego
Bridal bouquet mixing real flowers and Lego pieces — a unique wedding bouquet idea photographed in Gothenburg by Anton Engblom
If you're looking for wedding bouquet ideas that feel genuinely personal rather than Pinterest-perfect — this one is hard to beat.
Nadja and Stian chose Lego.
Their bouquet — assembled piece by piece from a LEGO Botanical set — was one of those details that tells you everything you need to know about a couple before the ceremony even begins. It wasn't a gimmick. It was a statement: this is us, and we're not pretending otherwise.
They got married at the Norwegian Seamen's Church in Gothenburg — a quietly beautiful venue that doesn't often appear in wedding photography from the west coast of Sweden, but probably should. The church carries a particular kind of calm. A space that asks you to be present.
Which suited this couple perfectly. Neither of them is the type to perform for a camera. They're the type to forget it's there — and that's when the real pictures happen.
The Lego bouquet ended up being one of the most photographed details of the day. Not because it was quirky, but because it was genuinely theirs.
This is something I come back to in almost every conversation with couples planning their wedding: start from who you are, not from what a wedding is supposed to look like. The details that feel slightly embarrassing to admit — the ones that seem too nerdy, too playful, too unexpected — are almost always the ones that make the day feel like yours.
A plastic flower arrangement. A specific song nobody else would have chosen. A venue that doesn't show up on anyone's mood board.
These are the things worth documenting.
