Looking at flowers and I’m trying to keep the cost as minimal as possible!...

Looking at flowers and I’m trying to keep the cost as minimal as possible! We’re not having flowers for the venue as that’s not really our style (maybe just a few for each centrepiece and a garland on the stairway in the reception room) Other than the bridal party, would you usually have buttonholes/corsages for your family members also?

A lot of supermarkets have florists in store that will select tie and wrap flowers in store. A bride used this service in our local morrisons recently for her bouqet and her bridesmaids. It is a cost effective option not sure if it would work with centerpieces though.

Just do what you think is enough. We’ve done the bridal party and let it there. You can just do immediate family. Break the rules - it’s your day xx

We had a small close family wedding, and we decided to have real flowers for the groom, best man, the person giving me away, bride, bridesmiad and for both mums. We got foam ones for the rest of the family coming, ebay do some good prices £1.00 per foam button hole :) (real flowers can be expensive)

We have daffodils as they’re our favourite flowers - helps that they’re cheap! lol

Then Marie curie daffodil broaches for everyone’s button holes on the day 🙂
