To keep a bit of the cost down and so I can have a better reception I've been looking at foam bouquets, particularly foam rose bouquets with diamontes which look beautiful. My concern is will they look to cheap and fake? Want to hear other people's opinions on them or their experiences if they have had them please :) Some recommendations would be great but seen some great ones on Bay of E

Wow that's good then. I suppose its a really good keepsake to unless you stick with the tradition of throwing it :)

Tbh, I have never been to a wedding in the UK where the bride throws the bouquet. If you really want to do that you can always make up a bouquet just for throwing (ie smaller & cheaper).
Many brides have artificial or foam flowers, you can tell the difference but mainly when you are close up. If you want to message me I know a VERY good supplier of these bouquets
Personally I am having fresh but only due to fact the flowers I wanted looked awful artificial

I've made my own corsages and buttonholes, plus bridesmaid bouquets and toss bouquet from foam and silk flowers with artificial greenery, damantes and double faced satin ribbon...
Gran, mum and sister's didn't relaise at first they were fake and they do look good... plus they'll stay looking good all day as opposed to for the first hour or so!
