Decor and wedding centrepieces (faux flowers)

Amanda, on August 17, 2026 at 3:28 PM Posted in Do It Yourself 0 3
So I’m looking to try to save money by creating my own centrepieces for each of the tables at our wedding. I’ve come up with a couple of concept ideas and even made a prototype, however, I’m really unhappy with how the flowers look. In particular, I’m using orchids because it’s an important flower to me. I’ve tried hobby lobby, Michael’s, and even SHEIN but nothing really looks right. They look so fake and it’s really bringing me down. Does anybody have any recommendations for any faux flowers that actually look real and are easy to use for wedding centrepieces?

    Search specifically for "Real-Touch Orchids" on sites like Afloral, Ling's Moment, or even top-rated Etsy sellers instead of standard craft stores. "Real Touch" flowers are coated in silicone/latex, so they feel thick and look soft like actual live petals rather than shiny polyester fabric. It makes a world of difference!

    I would check out what Amazon has too or Etsy. I’ve seen some Amazon reviews that looked promising in the faux flower quality department.

    I’m starting to look for faux hydrangeas and faux orchids. I’m thinking about mixing in the faux flowers with real flowers.
