Costco flower petals?

Sue E, on July 11, 2019 at 10:04 PM Posted in Style and Décor 1 12
Has anyone used Costco for rose petals? It says it brings 5,000 petals but I have no sense of how many that is. I need to line my aisle, sprinkle on about 14 tables, and fill 2 flower girl baskets.

    According to Google there are 20-40 petals in a rose. That will equal 1-2 cups.

    Depending on how heavy handed you are with the petals and how long the aisle is it may be enough or not. I would buy 1, 5000 lot for sure. Is there a smaller option also? Like 1,000 petals? If so I would use 5,000 to do the aisle first and the smaller size to do the baskets and tables.

    I got 15k of costco red petals and they were amazing. It was enough to line the aisle and for the send off guest toss and flower girl basket.

    Hey there!! When it comes to something like this, I definitely think more is more! You don’t want to realize that you don’t have enough rose petals on the morning of your wedding!

    It can be very difficult to visualize something like rose petals because they are so small, but I definitely think that ordering a bit more than you think is necessary would be helpful.

    I agree! I guess if it’s more than I need I can always just be more heavy handed or find another use for them.

    I agree, definitely go with more vs less! We ordered 2000 tiny wooden hearts for our centerpieces but probably won't use more than 1000
