Affordable Artificial Flowers?

Hello! So I have a large wedding party, which means a lot of flowers. I have ten on each side, plus I need corsages and extra boutonnières for parents and grandparents. My colors are peach and green. So basically I need:

1 Bride's bouquet
10 Bridesmaid bouquets (preferably 2 medium-sizes and 8 small)
1 Toss bouquet
3 Large Boutonnières
12 Small Boutonnières
4 Corsages

I would prefer to not DIY because I am in school and work as well, so I don't have too much times on my hands. If I need to get extra bouquets and cut them up to make boutonnières and corsages I would be willing to at least do that if I have to. I looked at budget bride and it would be around $800 for everything I need. Any ideas to get what I need for much cheaper?

    I have almost the same number of needed flowers as you and I got these off etsy from Lily of Angeles and only spent around $500! Check her out!

    I ordered some from Afloral.com they have already made boutonnières and bouquets or you can choose individual flowers to pull together.

    I got mine on Etsy but mine are Harry Potter themed and book pages/colors.

    1 Bridal
    4 Medium
    1 Flower Ball
    5 Buttonholes

    That was only $340 and they were shipped from UK. The most expensive thing was the bridal bouquet. Maybe look at Etsy? You might find more reasonable pricing there then what you're able to do yourself (which it looks like you want to avoid).


    Message them and see if they might cut you a deal for a 'wedding' order (I didn't ask them if they would, I mentioned what I'd like to buy from them and how it would be best done). I know mine did and they took $150 off the original price if I would have done it individually. Most people don't seem to realize that you can talk to the sellers... don't expect this -- but usually when they sell a big lot, they might tweak their pricing.

    I ordered bouquet for my engagement photo and it’s only $39 for 1. They have corsage and boutonnières (6 for around $20) too.

    This! Same! Hit up Michaels during their sales I got a medium bouquet for me and two small ones and enough to make 5 boutonnières and 5 pin on corsages. $38 plus floral tape and ribbon. It took me an hour to put together the boutonnières and corsages.

    UPDATE: Just found everything I needed for only $220 on Amazon! I'm so glad I searched through the depths of Amazon haha! Funny thing is that none of them are from the same seller so I'm impressed by how well everything matches. Here's what I found:

    I got all of my artificial flowers on Amazon and some at Walmart, they're real touch flowers and honestly look really real!!! I didn't spend more than $300 on flowers and that's a HUGE savings!

    I'd check out Etsy! There's some good shops on there that sell artificial flowers already arranged
