wedding flowers? i'm planning my wedding. when you got married, did you go to a florist and have them do everything, or did you buy your flowers wholesale? if so, who created your bouquet and arrangements? i really want irises and either white roses or calla lilies, but i dont know where to start on finding them (i havent gone to any florists yet). i've just been looking online, and i found lots of wholesalers where i can get each flower at about $1.25 (give or take) a stem, so for like 225 flowers it would only cost around $300. i can arange them myself (i think), but i dont know how to make the bouquet. but i dont know what a florist would charge to get the flowers and do all the arrangments herself.just thought i'd get some ideas for you guys. my wedding isnt until may 2009, so its not a rush kinda thing. for valentines day, my fiance and i each got eachother irises, both arranged by ourselves cause they just came as buds in a box and came out great so i dont think that parts an issue if there are any florists in the northern virginia/DC area i'm getting married in springfield so feel free to leave your website so i can look you up :)

Wedding flowers? I had to laugh about the $400,000 law suit that the couple wanted for their wedding glowers not being the correct color. I'm guessing they were not into the wedding. Who cares about the color of the flowers. Eyes should be on the couple. I think they should of made the flowers gifts, after all spending that much on them is sorta odd to me. They should of just had an outdoors wedding with natural colors. There is a reason we all don't get what we want. I think in their case its to learn about indulgence. What do you think?

Wedding Flowers?? My wedding colors are wine and gold and Im having a hard time finding good flowers. I plan on spray painting some feathers gold to mix with some purple/wine flowers and now all I need is some good suggestions for flowers. Any ideas? Also, can anyone tell me what kind of flowers the dark purple ones are in both these links?? http://www.waterlilypond.com/midsum... http://www.waterlilypond.com/wineco... Thanks!!

Wedding flowers? I'm getting married next year on quite a strict budget and I would like to do my own wedding flowers but I'm not sure how to go about it. My Groom has a dark red waistcoat and my bridesmaids are in purple and lilac. I know I want Carnations in my bouquets and as buttonholes. Can anyone give me advice and know where I can get lessons to help me design and make my own wedding flowers? I live in Carlisle, Cumbria, UK thanks

Wedding Flowers? I was wondering...has anyone gotten their wedding flowers from TheBridesBouquet.com? They have beautiful silk flowers, but I wanted to know if anyone has ordered from them? And if so, what was the quality like? They look so real on the website, but that could be deceiving. Also, has anyone had silk flowers for their bouquets instead of real ones? I think I'm leaning more toward silk, they're cheaper and they last forever without having to preserve them. Any help would be appreciated. :-) I already placed an order with them, I'm ordering a single rose, a sample color swatch, and a boutonniere. I thought maybe someone could tell me if they had a good experience with this company.

Wedding flowers? Ok, i'm getting married next year and i've just been doing some research so far, i want frangipani (Plumeria) for my wedding flowers, but i can't seem to find a florist that sell real flowers, they are all silk frangipanis, are they difficult to sell as real flowers? I'm in adelaide, south australia

Wedding Flowers? My wedding colors are gold and green (olvinie from davids bridal) and i was wonder what kind and what color of flowers would look ok? all white? Also, i am clueless about flowers so what are some good flowers to use? thanks!

Wedding flowers? I have decided to use calla lilys in my wedding. What other kinds of flowers look good with them? I still have not decided on colors yet. But my mom is going to be the one making the bouquets for everyone and we will be using fake flowers so we can keep them. Mom wants me to find other flowers so she can start planning how she will arrange them. Any suggestions are welcome. Thanks!! I am using fake flowers cause I want to be able to keep my bouquet, plus everyone else in the wedding wants to keep theirs as well. Its just what I want on my day. Everyone is different, and not everyone has to agree with me using fake flowers. The ones I am buying actually look so real, its unbelievable. joni s - May 10, 2008

Wedding Flowers? We have finally decided on colors for the wedding...we chose Coral, Bright pink, and other various shades of pink, with a splash of lime. Bridesmaids dresses are Mori Lee - Affairs Collection Style # 743 http://i127.photobucket.com/albums/p145/Shellie2001/img1.jpg Centerpieces... http://i127.photobucket.com/albums/p145/Shellie2001/large_image9.jpg Now my question is...what flowers? I know I want to mix the coral from the dresses and the vibrancy of summer (wedding is 6/28/08). Any suggestions? Thanks perfectlylovely - I found that limes give off a low amount ethylene gas, but as you said I will still have to check the hardiness of the flower before making a final decision...thanks again!

Wedding flowers? I recently got married, and at the moment my wedding flowers are in the fridge, but they cant stay there forever, i want to know how to keep them nice, when dried out so that i can keep them nicely presented, maybe even put it in a glass box of some kind.

Wedding flowers? For those of you who have recently married and those planning how much do you feel is the average cost of flowers for the wedding? Looking at a bride bouquet (roses) and 4 bridesmaids. Then for guys and family it would be about 16 boutenierres and 12 coursages (nothing too fancy). I hope to make the pew flowers myself and table decorations will be candles and colored fake leaves for fall. Cake table my baker is decorating. Someone told me around 1,000...sure was hoping that was a HIGH estimate!!

Wedding flowers? Does anyone know of a good place to order flowers for a wedding? I am looking for a reasonable price. I may just order them and have someone arrange them on site. Any good wholesalers? I am looking to buy over the internet because I live in a really small town in Alabama. The only suggestion that I have gotten from people around here are Costco. The florists around here will not order flowers for you unless you let them arrange them for you.

Wedding Flowers!!? I am getting married in May in a pavilion by the ocean.

Wedding flowers? I'm having a camo wedding (not military, but hunting camo... with branches and leaves). My fiance and I are VERY outdoorsy, and we love to hunt and fish. And before you start to laugh, we're planning on using camo as our ACCENT color, not the whole entire theme. My dress is going to be a nice, clean and light ivory (white would clash too much), and the bridesmaids are wearing black dresses with a camo sash around their waist. The guys are wearing black tuxes, ivory shirts, with camo vests and ties. But now I'm stuck... flowers. I'm looking for a bouquet that has ivory/white, greens and browns. Does anyone have any ideas or possibly pictures? Pics would help BIG TIME!!! From there my fiance wanted to see about adding pheasant feathers in somehow, which I already have some ideas for... And to those of you STILL laughing, I'll have pictures to prove just how classy we can make camouflage. Trust me! Oh, I meant to add in there that my dress has a camo sash going around the waist with a brooch in the front middle, then it drapes down the whole back of my dress. If you want an idea as to what we're modeling my dress from go here: http://cn1.kaboodle.com/hi/img/2/0/0/b/f/AAAAAu8MuI0AAAAAAAv-1A.jpg?v=1161719292000

Wedding Flowers? I am getting married in April and am searching for my flowers. I have gone to Los Angeles (the flower district) and have found a place called "Daisy's Garden" This place doesn't have a website and they speak Spanish (some English, but not very well)....I went with my friend and the florist showed me beautiful flowers and arrangements for much less than what I would pay at a typical...non-wholesale florist....i was wondering if anyone has been to "Daisy's Garden" before...or any florist in the LA flower district...and, if so, what was your experience with them? (please only tell me if you have used them for a large event...not just for a bouquet or something) my second question is....do you think i should trust the great deal in LA...or pay more for peace of mind??? Thanks!
