found some beautiful posies on eBay and I really want them but I was just wondering if the price is good? How much would I roughly pay for real flowers for four posies with cream and royal blue flowers in with little gems? I have no Idea and just wondered if the fake ones I have found would save me some money??
Thanks!!! Xxx

I think its nice to have fake ones anyways as a keepsake after the wedding. I saw nice ones on e ba y as well and think thats what im goin to do. especially since i have hayfever as welll, lol I don't know how much real flowers are but maybes you could phone a florist and ask for a quote so you can compare. x

it would depend on the flowers and size to be honest. I was looking at a posey of Gerbaras and they were working out around £30.00 each for adults sized ones!
Im thinking of having silk as well 1 to save money and 2 so can keep them etc x

i've been looking into fake flowers this week and would advise to look for foam they're lovely.
i've been looking at getting silk/foam flowers for our wedding especially as nice to keep as a memento..my mom still has her bridal bouquet from 28 years ago! From what I've heard on here and looked around, you can get extremely good deals on the silk ones compared to real ones... some people were quoting 8-900 for their real ones which had all the corsages/buttonholes/posies etc and then silk were coming in at 2-300 max... just depends where you look and also i agree with Princess2be, ring up for quotes just to compare! Bay of E and apparantly fb have good people out there! Good luck and keep me posted if find any good bargains!! x

if your good at craft's you can always attempt to make your own. i've been looking into it and it'll be much cheaper than that :)

We're getting fake flowers. I've found a lovely teardrop bouquet on ebay for £38 but real flowers would cost at least 80 for what I would want so definitely go for fake and like other people have said, it's a lovely keepsake for after the wedding x x
CommentAuthormrsV2013
i'd like my flowers to be fake so i can keep but think i'll have to get real for myself. i really want something speacial and i know i can't make them myself so i'm going to find out how much it'll cost. going to find out tomorrow.

charlscott where have you found them? The only places ive seen her order and deliver, i'd rather find somewhere local & have a consultation etc to discuss, as you would with real ones! xx

i was quoted £35-£40 each on our posies, which were black bacarra roses so you'd probably expect to pay around that much. my bouquet is only £50 but it is really simple, just 6 bacarra roses so depending on what you want it'd be from around that price upwards! Maybe you could order just one posie to see if you like it? I wouldnt suggest making them unless youre good at that kinda stuff, i bought foam flowers at first and tried putting them together and although they werent bad they were really difficult to make look nice xx
