So, I have already made a thread for us brides to be to show off our wedding dresses so now it's time for our bouquets etc.
This forum is for idea's advice opinions and I think it would be great for us to actually see what people are having and possibly get idea's this way.
The picture's I have uploaded aren't pictures of my actual bouquet but these are the pictures I am going to give to my florist so she can get an idea of what I want.
I'll be having the yellow roses but dark purple, midnight blue and cream in all sort's of different flowers with lots of diamanté's and pearls and I want a trailing posie!

One of my bargains :-) They are doing me two of those top table displays, those bouquets (one bridal and 2 bridesmaids) and all my buttonholes for £103. Lets hope they live up to those piccies when they arrive!!

CommentAuthorMrsMelodyWalker
That's a bargain. They look such good quality! I'm looking at around £500 for my bouquet, 4 bridesmaid corsage's, grooms buttonhole, 6 buttonholes and 4 ladies lapel corsage's, flower girl wand and a top table display. They are all silk so seem's far too much money but I love the stuff my florist make's, the quality is brilliant and she's often featured in Real Wedding's mag so think she's bumped up her prices because of that!

Bouquet 1 is beautiful, I think that's the best one! The colour's look stunning and would be even better with a bit of lilac xx

Lol wow that was good twirler, we're not having our honeymoon straight away we're waiting a few weeks as we've got family down visiting for a holiday and not seen them all in ages, but it gives us something to look forward to when the wedding has been and gone. That's good then cos i really like the tulips and rose bouquet and almost decided on that now and thought oh no what if they don't hold for the day lol x
CommentAuthorA.Bird2b
Am resurrecting this thread because I'm so proud of my flowers! (Pic on profile) In all they have cost me about £35. And quite a few hours inserting wires, and sticking on crystals. Just thought I'd show off a bit!

A.bird2b that bouguet is gorgeous!!!
Im not sure what bouquet im having yet - just don't want roses is as far as ive gotten but i have some photos to give to my florist so she can see what i like (ill put them in my profile cos id love some opinions!)
CommentAuthorA.Bird2b
Thank you mrs mac and mrswade! I put a lot of work in (especially the crystals, they are not easy to work with). I kept it small too, I think that is one of the great things about artificial flowers, they give you a lot of time to play around with them and get it perfect for you without worrying that they will fall apart!

After much flip-flopping we're going with: My bouquet in this pattern - but with ivory & burnt orange calla lilies, and without the foliage underneath
Calla lily bouquet pattern.jpg
But with looped grass like this
Looped grasses.jpg
All tied with silver ribbon :) H2b's buttonhole will be a double: one ivory & one orange calla with looped grasses and tied with silver ribbon. Family buttonholes will be a single ivory calla with looped grasses, tied with sapphire ribbon :)
As we're going abroad we've no idea who will come so doubt we'll get BM bouquets. For the UK reception we're gonna have bunches of orange & blue gerberas as centrepieces as they're such happy looking flowers & the only other kind I really like lol! Not picky at all... :p Xx
