I have looked into all 3 and i think i am going to go for the foam or silk (more cost effective, look just as natural and you can keep them afterwards) what do you ladies think/have? xxxx

CommentAuthormizzkt
I went for silk and real. My bouquet, bridesmaids bouquet and all button holes are silk. So I can keep them after. All flowers on tables and for ceremony are real.
foam for me, I wanted to make my own so could do it with foam weeks ago
CommentAuthorSaraM14
it would be lovely to keep a button hole and my bouquet as a memory and maybe put it at the back of the photo album xx

I love real flowers so I'm going for real as much as my budget will allow. But will fill in with silk and foam as needed.
CommentAuthorLlosa
We are have silk for the bm's and real for me and the buttonholes
CommentAuthorMrsMoran
Don't want to take the risk and get real flowers as they start to wilt and die, so going for artificial flowers, foam and silk xxx
CommentAuthorElizabethP8
I prefer artificial as they aren't going to die! It makes me sad to see flowers wilting, they should be growing in a garden somewhere xx
CommentAuthorMrsWright290912
Sara, I had foam ones. Could buy them in advance and store them helping my budget and they were nowhere near as expensive as real. I now have them on my "wedding shelf" in my wardrobe
I really did marry my Mr Wright and we had a nice day for a
Wright wedding!

I've gone for foam flowers as well. I would have gone for silk, but I've seen this lady's work. I was so impressed I've placed an order right away. :)
CommentAuthorLynD
fake here - she's sent me pics of what she's done (nearly finished - just one pomander to do) and they are stunning
CommentAuthorOfficially Mrs M
Mine were all foam, still have them all. My bouquet is in my wedding card box which is full of wedding stuff so I can show it to my daughter (when I have) and she can use it if she wants to

CommentAuthorLulu1388
We've gone for articifial, went to see them the other day and you would not believe my bouquet wasn't real. the quality, appearance and texture is out of this world. No idea what it is but it definitely isnt foam or silk... i love the fact we get to keep them, my mom still has hers from 29 years ago and thats one reason why ive gone for them as well. x

CommentAuthorCharlotteP69
Hiya, I'm a newbie on here and a very new bride to be :). I am getting married abroad next year and I have been thinking about having silk/foam flowers. I just wanted to ask if any one has had any expirience of 'Pink Lilac' in Otley because although I can find lots of website recommending them for silk flowers, I can't find any actual customer reviews apart those on their website.
I have ordered some samples, so that will give e an indication of the quality but it's the service I am worried about.
If any one can help me I would really appreciate it.
Thank you xx

CommentAuthorMattsBride
I've decided I want artificial for the same reason as most of you! I want to be able to keep them for a very long time and if I have a daughter who knows she may ask to use them x
