    I am having foam flowers, they look just like the real thing, a lot less expensive plus your bridesmaid either get to keep them or you can sell them on again after the wedding.
    I have just bought (this morning)
    1x teardrop rose bouquet with diamantes, pearls and ribbon
    3x bridesmaids posies with all the bits mentioned
    1 x Double buttonhole for groom
    2 x corsages for mums
    38 buttonholes for guests (its an informal destination wedding no suits allowed so want them to look part of a wedding party)
    3 x table centre pieces
    3 x Cake topper flowers
    total £183 which includes p+p
    my budget was £150 but that didnt include table and cake flowers so happy with that price.
    All my guests can keep their buttonholes, bridesmaids keep theirs and will eventually sell my flowers, the cake and table flowers so should get a little bit of that back at some point. xxx

    This isn't helpful to you I know, but we didn't budget anything because my MIL is sorting them all!

    Yes that's pretty good - our florist does table centres for 45-85 depending on size, but as she's a family friend she's doing my teardrop bouquet, BM bouquet, 7 buttonholes, top table arrangement, church pedestal and pew ends all for 275 :-)

    I really got lucky here as my package with the venue includes all the flowers i need there and my sister is a florist so she is going to get all the flowers for the bouquets, corsages & button holes and make them all up for without costing me a penny it will all be our wedding gift. have no idea how much what we are having would have cost otherwise x

    dont think I can help you here as we did go ott on flowers. So far we have paid 1100 for Bride shower bouq, 3 posies, 5 table displays, 50 chair covers and bows, 6 buttonholes, 3 corsages. There are more but venue covers the cost of a huge lovelly long and low and mog is sorting the rest as she is into flower arranging so will be adding candelabaras to our head table on the end etc and placing a single rose on each persons place.

    cant wait to be Mrs Evans less than 3 weeks woooo
    start weight 10st 1.5 lbs
    weight now 8st 4.5 lbs
    total loss to date: 24.5 lbs now need to maintain!
