diy Circle Arch Flowers?

Chantelle, on April 6, 2020 at 5:41 PM Posted in Do It Yourself 0 2
Hello!
I have started looking into floral services from floral vendors and the prices have been shocking. My priority floral piece is a large floral circle arch for the alter. Understandably, it is expensive.

Now I’m thinking to buy my own arch, buy flowers from a wholesale, and DIY decorate it myself. Or I can DIY decorate with fake flowers. After the wedding, I would plan to put my arch in our backyard garden.
Has anyone bought their own arch and DIY’d real flowers and/or fake flowers onto it? Did it seem to save you a lot of money?diy Circle Arch Flowers? 1diy Circle Arch Flowers? 2

    I Plan On Using Faux Flowers. You Can Order Them In Bulk And They Would Be Alot Cheaper Then Real Flowers .I Don't Want To Have To Worry About The Flowers Wilting Early.

    I would also recommend faux flowers or wood ones for this. With faux you could start making it as early as you like, and not have to worry (and I have a feeling it might take longer than you think). Plus with transportation to the venue, I would be stressing the whole time about real ones falling apart. Not to mention, this will mostly be seen from afar or in photos right? Flowers on the dinner table just a few inches from your guests? Those I would want real. But flowers hanging from an arch that is many feet away and most of your guests will never get close enough to really see? Go faux and save yourself the trouble! When it comes to saving money, you would definitely have the advantage doing faux as well. You could start hunting for deals early and jump on any you see. (Check ebay even!) Best of luck, the arch looks really cool and I'm sure it'll be a stunning piece when you're done!
