Hi, we have now decided on our centrepieces after a lot of disagreement I just said yes.. We are having fish bowls (bought from h0m3 b@rg@1n5) with artificial roses in them. The roses will be tied together using a thick white ribbon. Will be put on a mirror plate.
So I have the vases. Mirror plates are relatively easy to come across. Now I have the task of buying good quality artificial roses.
Can anyone recommend a seller on the bay / website / book face page.. anywhere where you have been happy with the artificial roses. I’m starting to worry as I have bought a couple of samples and not been happy with them at all.

Try to find a local bulk florist normally in a market they will have stock of real and artificial so you may have more luck there.

There is a big wholesale near but they only sell to trade / you have to spend a fortune so not ideal :(

Have you looked in the r@ng3 or Dun3lm? Not sure what the quality is like, but I know both stores here have a large selection of artificial flowers.
We got our mirror plates from h0me b@rg@ins Emily, really cheap. x

Have you thought about real flowers than artificial- often they are similar price- sometimes even cheaper than good quality artificial flowers?

Boo - hope you manage to find what yiu are looking for - I'm not a fan of fake but I know nowadays you can get really good quality that look very real- also seen hideous ones too lol xx
CommentAuthorEmily17
I'm exactly the same as you but needs must :( Our real flowers though have gone from just my bouquet to mine, MOHs, all button holes and corsages, top table decoration. And pew ends (if we can get it in budget)

Ok went to dun3lm, the r@ng3 and a warehouse shop yesterday and have decided to go for foam flowers as i think these look a lot more realistic.
Any tips on this one? H0bby cr@ft don't have our colour. I have emailed one online place but wondering if any of you have had foam and where you got them from?
:)

Our wedding cake had foam oases on it as a topper and a layer between each tier. Our cake maker though got them so no idea where she got them from.
