    I saw that and have thought about doing it but not sure if the flowers would last all day. I've read that florists know the tricks of the trade to keep your flowers fresh all day so they don't wilt and go off. I don't know if that's just a ploy to get you to buy theirs or if it's true x

    i would never be able to make a nice looking bouquet as i'm rubbish at arranging. i'm afraid to start looking at flower costs and that coz i know i'll go overboard :/

    It's a good idea - my mum brought my sister's centrepiece flowers from our local market - got them SO much cheaper!

    When my bouquet arrived it looked like something he'd picked up from Tesco on the way.It was awful!
    I sent it back and asked them to redo it.
    It was lucky that I'd asked for them to be delivered the afternoon before.

    Try your local market, there should be a florist. They are usually freelance and dont have the same overheads as shops, but do just as good a job.
