Splurge or Save: Flowers?

We're saving money in this area since they're not that important to us. We're planning to use a lot of candles instead in our decor. My FMIL is very good with floral arrangement so we're getting the flowers wholesale somewhere (probably Costco) and she's offered to help put them together.

We absolutely decided to save on flowers. I didn't care for real flowers so I'm using fake flowers for the bouquets, corsages, boutonnieres, and centerpieces.

I’m hoping this will be a save for me! I’m going to try to make them myself to save money. I personally didn’t find them as important especially with my venue which has character in itself.

Save. Flowers are not a priority for me. I'm buying bulk flowers from Costco and making my own bouquets and boutinerres, might even do dried flower bouquets, and using simple flower in vase for the tables. I deliberately chose a venue that needed little decor.

We splurged on them, I loved my flowers.

Def not a splurge
Neither my maid of honor or I will be carrying flowers and the flower arrangments on the table are minimal. Id placed the money so i could invite more friends instead

I am saving on flowers. Ill use fake flowers on the archway, I'm making French beaded flowers for the bridal party. And using non flower decor for everything else

Save. To us it's one of ygrist wasteful aspects of a wedding.

Save! It pains me to see all these gobs of expensive flowers that will be dead in a week or less.

Save! No decorations needed for the reception site, no bridal party so I need a bouquet, a few boots and a few corsages. Our wedding is at an arboretum so no need to decorate there!!! LOL!

Both! I'll be using artificial flowers for the centerpieces, but all the bouquets will be real and I want them to stand out!

I would have loved to splurge on flowers, but these are a save for me! The BP's flowers will be artificial (I found some beautiful bouquets on etsy) but we might get some real flowers for the table settings.

Reluctantly, I saved. I wanted flowers everywhere, but realistically I knew by going simple was enough, and guests don't care about flowers.

Definitely saved. We're going with Sola flowers. They're gorgeous and I can't justify spending the money on real flowers.

Save because flowers are SO expensive.

I feel we're doing both. We're saving because we're using fake flowers, I didn't want to get real ones because I have irrational fears and anxieties of what happens with them, but we're buying a lot for great deals and going ALL out on centerpieces and etc.

We cut real flowers completely out of the wedding. I just can't see spending $2500 on flowers for one day. I know you can donate them to nursing homes or funeral homes after the wedding, but we had to cut the budget somewhere and that was it. I am using sola wood flowers to make bouquets and decorations.

Save. I ordered white roses from Sam's Club, and a florist friend ordered a variety of inexpensive white flowers and greenery for me at her cost, and we DIY arranged them. We only spent a few hundred dollars, and I was very happy with the results.

Modest budget--our venues are stunning on their own so only bouquets, centerpieces and one for the welcome table/alter table. Skipping boutineers, I don't think they're necessary and FH doesn't care for them either. I can't bring myself to have a bunch of flowers killed for one night, but I don't want to carry or gift fake flowers to my bridal party. So, selective amount of flowers it is.

Saving on flowers. DIY centerpieces bouquets, and bouts. Some ceremony flowers with planners package.
