My arch flowers are here!

Yam, on August 1, 2019 at 3:24 PM Posted in Style and Décor 0 14
I’m making the centerpieces myself using flowers that smell good but I’m just not comfortable doing the arch flowers myself and fighting to hang real ones, so I found these sprays on Amazon. I know guests won’t care, no one is going to touch them or anything like they do in TV shows(I’m looking at you, Four Weddings) I really love the colors, those muted tones are exactly what I envisioned. They’re really soft and feel weighty, pleasantly surprised.

It came with two sprays and a cute soft sheer purple curtain. I’m going to pair it all with this gorgeous white petal curtain I found and twinkle lights that have a setting that looks like fireflies. I might add vines? Not sure, it could look a little busy. I’m trying to finish the look.

    Are these Ling's flowers? We have the same ones but the garland and the geo cubes, same colors and LOVE THEM!!! I agree with you the flowers look so real and they extremely soft.


    I maybe to much with the vines, have you set it up to see what it looks like without? Could you buy the vines and try to set it up and if you don't like it return it?

    Oh my gosh YES! Excited someone has the same flowers! I’m super impressed with the quality!

    Our “arch” is a gazebo we can’t decorate until the day of so I can’t really envision it, might try to hang it from something at home just to get a general idea. I could absolutely buy the vines just in case.

    Ling’s flowers on Amazon!

    There aren’t any reviews for this product so I took a leap of faith, great reviews on their other items though. It comes with the curtain and also comes in pink!

    I would say try to get an idea at home with setting it up as best you can and go from there. we are having a geo arch at ours...maybe.... but I decide one thing of white chiffon draped would be it if we decide to use it. I showed my mom the flowers online and she was skeptical as they are fake flowers but she was shocked at how beautiful they are and how they look so real in person. I am thinking with the garland I may get a few real greens and throw those in but same as the arch I'm still thinking about it Smiley smile

    If you decide to trial out your idea at home, I'd love to see what you come up with Smiley smile

    We really want a circle/moongate arch but we would have to diy it, it’s not off the table but if we can’t pull it off we’re just hanging everything from our cute white gazebo. White chiffon would look gorgeous! It would go with the little white flowers.
    My mom was the opposite, she’s been pushing for fake flowers all along but all the ones I saw in stores didn’t look real enough so I dug in my heels! There’s just something so unique and charming about these ones, the shape and colors, had to have them!
    Real garland would look nice, it’d give it a fuller look. I thought before they arrived I’d add in real roses to mine, now not sure.

    Absolutely! I’ll reply to you with a trial photo, maybe we can bounce off ideas. I’m so curious to see how these sprays will look with my petal curtain, it’s little white flowers hanging on strings.

    The venue just got the geo arch, so its included if we want to use it. I definitely would love to see the curtain it sounds gorgeous. I thought the same thing about needing to add some real flowers Id grab from the store the day before but like you they look so real I don't think any extra flowers will be needed. Cant wait to see any trials you do!

    I haven’t hung it up yet but the curtain looks good quality so far. It’s this if you want it for your own look! I attempted to make one myself, pricked my fingers like 50 times and found this one. To heck with that diy project.

    Your arch sounds cool! I love unique arches so much. There’s no arches near me for rent that aren’t the standard shape. Can’t wait to see your look!

    How did you find this in purple??? I went to the link you added, and there is only pink, along with some other colors that aren't purple.

    I'm searching for purple, and I'm not finding anything! Suggestions?

    That's really pretty! I personally think it looks fine as-is.

    I got a kick out of the Four Weddings comment. It irked my nerves whenever they would touch the flowers and complain. Like, there's bigger things to worry about!

    I know! They would be like “Those centerpieces are really pretty!” Touch them and realize they’re not real flowers and go “Oh they’re fake” and give a super low score. If they couldn’t even tell by looking at them, I don’t think their scores were fair.
