Wedding Flowers - Save Money

Silk, Silk, Silk!
I can’t stress enough how much money you can save by having silk bouquets and arrangements at your wedding. The beauty is still there and so is the money in your wallet! Spray the flowers with a rose scent (found at Wal-Mart or Auto Zone) for a fresh smell and add some ribbon, your guests will never know the difference and your bridesmaids will thank you for not making them carry a heavy bouquet through hours of formalities.

Buy Wholesale
You would be surprised at the amount of money you can save on a pre-made bouquet from any wholesale dealer. Some places require a business license to make any type of purchase, but with “mom and pop shops” exploding throughout America nowadays, chances are you know someone. J I was in a business only wholesale store the other day that was just recently opened to the public, and found a toss bouquet for $3.00 and a cascading white rose bridal bouquet for $20.00! You can’t beat that price!!!

Vintage
Chances are your grandparents and parents either did not have a large wedding or the hype of silk flowers did not reach them yet. But, if you are lucky enough to find someone in your family who had a silk flower arrangement that they kept for all these years, honor them by asking to borrow it for your wedding. Mothers and grandmothers are especially touched by this sentiment!

DIY
As explained on a previous page, you can save hundreds by making your own floral arrangements, big and small. Weather, you decide to use silk flowers, or the real thing, you can still save big! If your crafty or know someone in your family or circle of friends that has a good eye, get down to it and bring that personal touch that no florist can, to YOUR wedding.
