    Just order a toss boquet. The florist will make you a much smaller, less costly version of yours. Smiley smile

    My florist included a smaller toss bouquet in my package. She called it 'free' but I'm sure it's somehow built into the price.

    I think that throwing a real bouquet makes a huge mess and is a waste of money. But i LOVE the idea of throwing one so i've decided to go to Micheals and pick out some pretty fake flowers and making my own bouget to throw.

    Origionally mine was supposed to be to toss. I picked out flowers from Michael's and told the gal it was to toss. But she made it too beautiful and I couldn't part with it so I had my girls make a quickie one from flowers from the shower just before.

    Just order a toss bouquet from your florist. I'm just throwing my bouquet I don't see why I need to keep it.

    I agree that you can either make or order a smaller one, but I've also seen a wedding where they got a small stuffed animal and tied a gift card (like $10 or something to a popular store) around it's neck and tossed that instead. I thought it was pretty ingenious.

    I'm throwing the bouquet I had made for my BM before she was excused from the WP.

    My mom is making all my flowers, and she is making an extra, smaller one for it.

    Well I had made a silk bouquet for myself and my girls but I wasn't really pleased with how theirs turned out so I ended up ordering fresh flower bouquets for all of us. I initially ordered a toss bouquet for $15 but I changed the order today. I'm going to toss the silk bouquet I originally made for myself. I didn't exactly buy cheap flowers I was more concerned about the fragrance.

    If you can't get a toss bouquet in such a short time, you can toss a single flower... This is also very common in weddings when the bride doesn't want to toss the actual bouquet...

    I went to Michael's and bought a small bouquet that was put together, we will just add some ribbon around the stem and toss that, it was like $5 and I have a 40% off coupon for it.

    Yeah just make one of fake flowers that are still in flow of ur wedding colors and ideas. my wedding is small and intamate so i am just planning on giving mine to my mom since everyone there wont be single. also if u don't want to do the whole tossing thing you could have a raffle and give away movie tickets or gift card to a resturaunt..something like that.

    Most florists offer a toss bouquet for very little money. Another option is to throw one of the attendants bouquets.
