Flowers!

Did you get your flowers from a florist? Or did you DIY? Did you split it & do like centerpieces yourself and getting bouquets from a florist? Also, we live in Colorado while the wedding will be back home in Oklahoma. So I’m indecisive because I don’t want to order something I can’t see until...

    Something Borrowed Blooms is a great option if you're looking to save money! They're also great for the environment too since you don't just throw them away at the end. If you're wanting to see different bouquets before, they offer preview packs and I think that money goes towards your order if you decide to go with them. They've got everything - bouquets, boutonnières, centerpieces, etc. It also knocks out your something borrowed.

    We are using a florist, but that it only because my FW's grandma is a florist so she will be doing all of our flowers and helping with the centerpieces.

    I am using an "alternative" florist. She makes the "flowers" from wood and paper. They will last forever. She just sent me some photos to approve before she puts everything together, so I'll attach one. I didn't like the idea that the flowers would die or need to be preserved, especially since I don't live in the same state that I'm getting married in. Though I've postponed my larger event, I'll still use the bouquet and signs for the mini-mony. Everything else will be fine to stay in a box until next summer!

    I did everything myself. I used sola wood flowers for the wedding party and fresh flowers from fifty flowers for our centerpieces. I saved a lot! I spent $300 in total.

    We have opted to DIY both centerpieces and bouquets. Our venue comes with our choice of silk florals however I am so particular and our color palette is so specific. We will be using our own silk flower arrangement for the centerpieces and venue decor and our Our bridal party will have real florals that we will be arranging ourself (my mom is an event planner and has extensive experience with floral designs so she is having the time of her life with this lol) my bridesmaids bouquets will be single flower bouquets (to reduce the cost) and the guys’ boutonnières will be easy to do. My bouquets will be the most extensive project but again, I’m in good hands with my mom as a veteran floral designer. My wedding is in a few weeks and we have started putting the centerpieces arrangements together and have already ordered most of the florals for our bouquets and boutonnières. We are very excited to see how it turns out, the centerpieces we created are so lovely so I can’t wait to see it all together
