I'm curious too. I have severe allergies. Other than bouquets, I'm not sure if we can have real flowers.
Look for real touch fake flowers. They look pretty good. There are a couple sites on line like afloral.com that you can a single flower cheap to take a look at.
I used all fake flowers for my bouquet and it turned out fantastic! Everyone really loves it, but it did take awhile to make (sorry it is a bad picture):
I got my flowers at Hobby Lobby and Michael's when they were 50% off (usually once a month they both run the 50% off promotion, or sometimes B1G1 at Michael's) The bouquet cost me $35.
We're using fake flowers (fiance has allergies). We got all our flowers and supplies at Hobby Lobby during half-off sales, too :)
I only have cell phone pics that I took to send my MOH, but here you go!
my bouquet
bridesmaids (They won't be quite so compact, but I'm not 100% happy with them. Might try again next time I'm in the same town as the flowers!)
Looks good! I'm still on the fence. I'm thinking about just buying carnations in bulk and making a DIY bouquet because I like the look of a lot of them bunched together and from what I've seen online it doesn't look hard. Alfa, I see you're from VA Beach, that's where I'm getting married! :)
I'm getting silk flowers done... only reason is because i want to keep them :) plus frangipanis seem to die really fast after being picked.
I did my bridal bouquet and the bridesmaids too with silk flowers I got at Hobby Lobby. I have a picture of mine but not the bridesmaids...
My SIL and I did all of the bouquets, bouts, corsages and 1 pomander mostly from afloral .com( a little more expensive but I wanted specific flowers and colors)
Ashimmin, I like the rhinestone detailing on yours. Did you place all of those individually or did they come in the bands like that?
@AnnDreeUh, thanks! They were actually strips made to put on flip flops, but I just cut them the length that I needed them to be and you just peel off the backing and put them on!
I got some real touch from save on crafts. I put three of their smaller bouquets together to make mine (it's not perfectly arranged yet), and my maids will each have one smaller bouquet. I love the way they look!




I used all fake flowers for my wedding. They were great cuz I made them weeks ahead of time, and I can keep them forever!
....Here's are some pics...

I did my daughter's bouquet. Got most flowers at Hobby Lobby, Michael's & JoAnn Fabrics.
i think it look great! and it great for DIYers being you can have it done months before hand
It's so great to see all of these! I thought I was going crazy to want silk flowers for all of my wedding bouquets but apparently I'm not :P

Has anyone here used fake flowers for their bouquet? I'm just curious because I've seen some online that actually look decent. If so, can you post pics?
