If you can go to your local grocery store and buy a bouquet for $15-$20 and cut off the ends and wrap a satin ribbon around the bottom. This will save you a lot of money and look nice

Fake flowers are fine. With it being fall, you can do dried flowers, too!!! If you have a hearvest theme, think about using wheat shafts as decor/bouquets. It can be very elegant and inexpensive.

It is okay to use fake flowers I think it would look just as they real. You can use red, yellow and orange flowers. Check this web site out it shows pictures of fake flowers wedding bouquets.

yes if it’s cheaper, go for it. No one would be able to tell in the pictures/video.

Maybe do bride — real flowers, everyone else fake.
If you find someone who’s used to working/decorating with flowers, the fakes wont be noticeable.

It’s hard to pick i know. But real flowers look better i think.
You can go with going to your local store and buying some flowers from there it would be less money, Than going to the folwer shop they coat too much.
and if you like the idea of fake folwers than and are low on money than go that way.
just make sure they don’t look fake. and make sure they go great together.
i’m sure it will work out for you.

I hate fake flowers, so I vote for real. I agree to go the grocery store or Costco and get some reasonable flowers there.

I’m also using fake flowers I used a store off of ebay Victoria’s silk design. I saved so much money I got all of my bouquets and boutonnieres in all 24 pieces for $179 with free shipping. Good Luck!
