It was an atmosphere of surprise when Paige Kirk, 23, from Sydney, resorted to a set of bouquets filled with decorated pastries.

However, it was a bit unclear why the guests at the bridal party did not eat the doughnuts despite their appetising appearance. Paige Kirk said the guests claimed "We had plenty of goodies beforehand so we were too full too eat them."
The bouquets, according to reports were donated in a competition by a company that wanted to create an alternative to flower gifts.
But Paige who happened to be the first bride to introduce the new ‘wedding flowers’, said her guests "loved them".
She said "everyone thought it was hilarious, and the venue couldn't believe it."

Paige said she was shocked by the reaction, as she claimed thousands of people commented on the pictures of her and her bridesmaids with their unusual bouquets since Saturday.
