Hi everyone ! I just wondering if any of you guys planing or already did use artificial/fake flowers for bride and bridesmaids ? If yes, then where did you guys buy it ? I kinda don’t wanna spend so much money on flowers since they’re so expensive 😟

    I used Etsy. They have so many unique vendors on there. All of our floral is fake, book page and silk flowers.

    I'm not doing flowers for decor. Since we're getting married in the winter I'm doing the white glittery twigs for centerpieces and doing fake flowers for all the bouquets, boutonnieres and corsages. I started collecting them super early from different places and waited for big sales and coupons. I may have extra but I already use them for house and party decor so that's not a problem for me. I think it's nice that they won't die and you can keep them forever, plus I like the idea of being able to take my time to put everything together.

    I would highly recommend pine and petal weddings on Etsy if you go this route. They’re so easy to work with and their flowers looks so real! Go check out their Instagram and you can’t even tell the flowers are fake.

    My best friend married her wife last August and used fake flowers. Everything looked beautiful and nobody cared! I have bought the flowers for my upcoming wedding from Michael's, hobby lobby and even Joanns. They have amazing sales and I have gotten all my flowers using seasonal discounts and coupons ... I haven't spent more than $200 on the entire floral set up, including the venue and all other shenanigans!! The only thing I haven't purchased yet is the bouquet as I am waiting for the dress to arrive. I dont have bridesmaids so I cannot say anything there (my wedding is a bit...peculiar). But if I had to make them bouquets i would be able with the insane amount t of flowers i have picked up. Good luck and congrats!

    I bought mine online through Etsy. The lady I'm using is called BridalBouquets. I only spent about $400 for the following:
    1 bridal bouquet
    2 MOH bouquets2 Bridesmaids Bouquets1 Groom Boutonniere8 Additional boutonnieres
    We aren't using flowers in any other decor besides flower girl petals. I believe we spent a reasonable amount for what we're getting! You can also check your local grocery stores for bouquets as well.

    I am using all artificial flowers, I got mine at Hobby Lobby! I got all of them half off, so I’d try to catch them when they’re on sale!

    You can also go to flower bins and buying directly. They are cheaper like that. I found one near my venue and she sell flowers by the bucket and probably with 2 maybe 3 I’ll be set for about $400 And that includes my bouquet and bridesmaids

    Hello! Smiley shame

    Our venue is taking care of all of the flowers, and they will be using Silk ones. My bridal bouquet will be a fresh floral one just because it's included in my package. Otherwise, I would get fake ones too.

    I got two bouquets for my bridesmaids from Lings Moments (totally recommended) plus a some extra flowers and changed up the bouquets slightly. I also got an arrangement for our guest board and the boutonnieres. I will post pictures below.

    After everything we spent $303 including $75 to get a fresh boutonniere for FH and upgrade for my fresh floral bouquet.

    I've been thinking about this too and etsy has some great stuff. Also there are other alternatives I had never thought of, https://www.weddingwire.com/wedding-ideas/8-unconventional-bouquet-ideas
