im having candelabras for my centre pieces and want fowers to go in the middle which im doing myself.
i really want stargazer lilys, ive found a really big bunch on the bay. really cheap,35 stems @ starting price £35 & £10 postage. these artiifical lilys r normally £5 a stem.
but i wanted real flowers to start wiv but now im thinking it wud be cheap to do fake as i can buy in bits and pieces but i really love real flowers.
is people mixing real and fake? really dont no what to do, what wud u do????
CommentAuthoralmost a year wife!!
that sounds fab! all of our flower are foam roses and were so much cheaper than real... I think real stargazers would probably cost you a fortune, you can also get real touch lillies on the bay I think and Im sure you can get latex ones xxx
Ill marry my hero

I don't see why you can't mix real and fake, as long as they are good fakes. You could have real foliage then fake flowers maybe?

Will your venue allow you to light the candles in the candelabra? I know venues are stating health and safety or some listed buildings dont allow candles. I think stargazers are very expensive arnt they. Could you get a quote and then see after? Or get a quote from a venue events company it may be cheaper to hire the candelabra and get the company to decorate them? Xx
im not that bothered about lighting the candles, just like the way they look. ive got a company that r suppling the candelabras but im dressing them myself, dont mind doing it. but i like decembers idea. just dont want to buy these flowers from the bay n then not use them coz then its not a bargain xx

Yer chic its more personal when uve done it. If your talented enough then go for it they will look exactly the way you want them to then xx
CommentAuthorMrsThomson2B
some place can hire out candles with and led flame that look good. Also you could have freal flowers for the bouquets and use fake for the centreepieces xx

Fake!
Cheaper, for the sake of a day its not worth it... too many people with hayfever, means absolutely no lily or flower pollen around to stain my dress, can have them prepared in advance at a fixed cost, no seasonal or shortage surprise excess in payments etc... reliable and consistent flowers...
And we lived happily ever after!

I love lilies but they are really pungent and would be no fun for those with allergies
