For all my DIY brides, where did you find your fake flowers to make your bouquets? I’m planning to make mine, my bridesmaids, and corsages for the moms and I’ve found some things that I like but I’m looking for a bit more realistic look than some of the stuff I’ve found! I’m not opposed to buying online as long as they have a good return policy so if I don’t like them I can send them back!

I got my flowers from lings moment and loved them. They do free samples too, before you buy so you can verify colors. They’re foam, so if they do arrive a little squished, a quick pass with your hair dryer on low heat will reshape them perfectly very fast! I had the best experience with them!

I purchased 💐s from Afloral. They were clearance for $2. The same ones were $32 on Etsy. This is why I ordered them from Afloral. I also purchased 💜🌹s from Michael’s and Cream Tulips and Purple Calla Lillies from Amazon.

I re-organized rhe 💐s to make 6, adding some of the other Flowers to the Toss 💐 so that it’d be different.

Excuse the poor lighting, but these are the flowers and greenery. I also made corsages and boutonnières with these flowers!

I haven't bought mine yet, but I'll be getting them from hobby lobby. They look a lot more real than Michael's or AC Moore and they have 40-50% off sales fairly often

They turned out so good! What material did you use for the actual hoop itself?

I’ve been looking there and will probably use most of them from there! I really want to use tiger lilies but haven’t found any that don’t look super frayed on the edges! I may just have to scrap that idea though! Those look beautiful! I love the red!

Ling's moment on amazon. Fairly realistic but the stems are wire, so you may want to add fillers toward the bottom.
