    I've been having a look online with not much luck. i was hoping to find a place which supplies nice artificial bouquets. Just wondered if anyone has used artificial flowers and could recommend someone to me. Thanks

    I think artificial flowers look great if they are good quality. Have you tried bay of the E? They have some lovely ones.

    No Problem; I have seen some that I like on the bay of e; just got to persuade my h2b that artificial flowers look just as great as real ones as he would prefer real :)

    Thanks ladies for all your suggestions will have a look at the new ideas now :) I prefer the artificial ones for more than you can keep them forever, i also suffer from hayfever and asthma and the last thing i want is to sneeze my whole wedding day. Krissy that does sound good off to google them now x

    I ordered mine last night off of the bay. I know I have 16 months to go but il keep them good :). I got my top table arrangement, my bouquet, 2 bridesmaid bouquets, 3 corsages, 2 double button holes and 6 single button holes for £126.50. The woman has 100% on reviews and she couldn't have been any more helpful. She's gave me a discount for ordering them all together. And will send me pics etc once they are all done before they are posted out to make sure they're perfect for me :). I prefer artificial flowers as real ones make me sneeze too as well as dying out soon after the wedding and costing like 5x as much. Xx

    i made this lot from using an online wholesale the order cost £110 and ive got tonnes left to make other things. these may not look professional but i love them because they are made by me :) i have never done anything like it before and some of the more talented ladies on here have made some amazing arrangements ! i reckon its got to be worth having a go!! could even get your bridesmaids involved. my wedding is all about me and my O/H so we are trying to make everything we can as ultimately its a true reflection of us :) if thats not your bag then there are some good ones on the bay .

    One BIG day will lead to lots of little happy days !!
