Real or artificial flowers

Daily, on May 2, 2022 at 13:04 Posted in DIY 2 35
Future brides are you choosing real or artificial flowers for your wedding? I chose artificial for two reasons: save money and I can prepare my centerpieces a head of time. I will be using artificial flowers for my bridal bouquet. The last two pictures is for my bridal bouquet. Real or artificial flowers 1

    I'm doing a nice real bouquets/boutonnieres for the wedding party and just placed greenery on the tables. I found some artificial flowers that I'm going to put on the arch and head table. I'm also planning on getting my bouquet and my fiance's boutonniere preserved and put into a shadow box.

    Each of the seasons has its own characteristics, so a wedding in the fall and a wedding in the spring are completely different things, not to mention summer and winter. Therefore, it is necessary to take into account the season. Firstly, the choice of flowers for a wedding depends on seasonality. You should not plan ranunculi and anemones for a summer wedding, and peonies in August. There are also flowers that are available all year round. As of today, flower suppliers provide a huge selection. Mississauga flower delivery service is one of the most beautiful flowers for any wedding.

    My bouquet will be real but went with artificial for centerpieces and Bridal party bouquets. They look amazing!! Bought them at Michaels on sale. Bought some mason jars and did my own vases. I wanted to make my wedding personal so decided to do everything myself. The bouquets were already made up but I added to the stem to look more rustic. They also had the mini version so I got 3 for my flower girls. Do what you like, it’s your day. Real or artificial flowers 5

    It is Ling's Moment but I've ordered it from Amazon instead of directly from Ling's.

    That's so true about preparing ahead of time because of holidays. I have about 15 months to go and I want to do everything now so that it's done and I don't have to worry about it. There are so many things that can't be done in advance that I figure if I do what can be done now I'll be less stressed then.

    These are beautiful! I'm going with artificial for the same reasons. It's easier and such a huge savings over real. I love the colours of the ones that are boxed. Would you mind telling where you got them?

    Yes! That’s fair enough. At first I thought about doing that. Save time and money with artificial flowers

    I'm doing artificial flowers, since I didn't know my venue came with bouquet options, so I will use theirs for the bouquet toss.

    We've gone with artificial flowers for the whole wedding but went through a florist so I didn't have to do any work! Since we're getting married in a different province it just made sense to go the artificial way and they won't wilt on the big day with a big chance of it being over 30 degrees that day.

    We are having real flowers. I'm very fortunate that my sister is a florist and she owns her own shop! So wholesale pricing and whatever i want! She'll be making everything with some help from her flower fairies. I only have MOH and 1 BM and he only has a BM and one GM. I haven't decided on boutonnieres yet. Might go with a nice pocket square.

    Wow those are beautiful artificial florals!!! So pretty 😍


    I was originally going to do artificial florals off of lings.com but I ended up finding a florist within my budget of 700 dollars to get the whole shebang of wedding florals!! One of the things I’m very excited about and after the wedding I’m saving some to get made into keepsakes!

    Artificial flowers. I like to craft so I made the flower girl baskets ahead of time, as well as my bouquet and any corsages/boutonnieres (papercraft diy). And since the wedding will be in January fairly soon after the holidays, I'm preparing well ahead of time!

    I'm going with artificial flowers. Mainly because of allergies. I have really bad hayfever and so do my kids, mom and a few other friends and family. I just don't want to be miserable at the wedding 😅
