Is anyone doing cupcakes and a small cake, instead of a huge cake?

Did you have a good experience?

Did the flowers look pretty real?

I would love to see some photos!

Hey! I bought mine at Michael's during their 50% off all silk floral event in January. I spent $200 on ALL the bouttonniers, corsages, and bouquets. I spent an additional $130 in fresh rose petals for the tables. My friend used Real Touch for her wedding--roses and magnolias. Her bouquet is below. It looked and felt so real, it was weird =].

I got mine at a wholesale silk flower place in Miami. I guess ur not in Florida though...... Saskatchewan..Canada??

I think they look real.....The green orchids are the latex kind, so they even feel real...

Here they are in my room waiting for me to use them :)

(sorry that brown thing is a dog toy)

I had my bouquets & corsages made by Tara of viennasflowers.com. She did a great job and they photographed beautifully!

Just as a note, for those, like me, who have never heard of Real Touch, DON'T GOOGLE IT IF YOU'RE AT WORK!!! My mistake

Lots of inappropriate things come up.

Thanks for posting this - Im wondering the same thing - looking for good silk flower vendors. Anyone out there use afloral.com? Their prices seem too good to be true but some have posted that they got their flowers from there and I'm wondering about their quality....

Does Michaels always do a 50% flowers thing in January?! That would be amazing
