Gadling covers the Olympics
It's made of white roses, white lilies, white orchids, moonflowers, the root of a 100-year-old ficus, as well as several kinds of stones, paints, feathers. And if that's not fantastical enough, there are gemstones, one hundred of them, to be exact: 90 two-carat red ruby facets, nine one-carat diamonds, and a 21.6-carat star ruby.

Total value of the bouquet? About $125,000, which got it into the Guinness Book of World Records. It's a Vietnamese creation, made by
DOJI Gems & Trade JSC and LyLy Flower Supermarket in Hanoi, and it's not for sale. However, if you've a hankering for a bouquet that costs about as much as four to five average weddings, you'll be happy to know that DOJI is more than willing to make more blooms-and-bling bouquets upon request!
