I am in the process of contacting local florists to see if they specialise in artificial flowers.. as the one place that I had found at a very good rate/price, the shop is now closed and only deals online, and just won't get back to me after numerous emails! So have found the big yellow book online & just emailed decent looking ones! I know there are some good ladies on book of face and things like that but want to steer clear of roses & thats all they seem to do! As well as DIY websites... no good with things like that!
Am waiting to hear back from most of them, but two have done so already, one says I need to go in before giving me a quote and the other has said:
Shower Bouquet £65 2 hand held bridesmaids posies @ £30.00 each Single cala lilly buttonholes (with silver and Turquoise accents) @3.50 each x8 2 ladies corsages @ £7.50 each FG suggested a silver heart shaped wand with white flower and turquoise ribbon.This costs £10.00.
The total would be £178.00
Then obviously thinking of having some sort of table centrepiece of top table and incorporate some flowers into the centrepieces for the 4 or 5 other tables.... She did say that if order by end of November can be done for £150.00.
Is that still a bit pricey?? considering artificial as well??? Or a good deal? Obviously awaiting responses from other florists but still....
Thoughts / Advice would be greatly appreciated!!
Thanks! xx

mine are artificial - from a lady that goes under the name of that thing that's in the sky when it rains and is sunny at the same time.... I can't see the difference and they look so good :) well they do on her website

Oh the one I'm talking about is local to me just the other side of Birmingham rather than on doorstep! That's all I meant! I know there's loads I can look at online that post out but would prefer to find someone I can go in and talk with as not 100% sure of what I want! If I knew exactly I'd go online & order to post out!
