Not hiring florist

Runners

These are so pretty - I love the simple elegance of greenery! I'm planning on getting fresh flowers through a local grocery store, so not going with a traditional florist. I looked into actual florists and was floored by how expensive they are!

View Quoted Comment I know!! So expensive!!!!

View Quoted Comment So pretty beautiful work!!!

View Quoted Comment If you order the foam flowers from amazon, they are wonderful, not cheap looking at all, and I’m picky lol

View Quoted Comment Thank you!!! ☺️

I didnt. I just made my own bouquets from fake flowers

Same here, I'm cutting that cost too haha. I'll be using Trader Joes and Pinterest for help haha.

I love the eucalyptus boutonnières and bouquet! I plan on doing my own flowers, I worked in a flower shop for a little while so I feel pretty confident about it. I think the greenery will look great on your day!

Those look beautiful. Just remember to get yourself extra supplies to practice and give yourself a buffer if anything gets damaged/is giving you trouble.

I also DIYed my bouquet and centerpieces:

I love your centerpieces Nikita!! Terrariums are so pretty! 😍

Wow they are gorgeous, never thought of doing something like that myself. Might be relaxing doing those in the midst of wedding planning!

Thank you! I ended up with some extra succulents at the end since some were too small to really work with. However, my centerpieces all went to good homes (including my own), and my bouquet is now in a planter so I have a forever bouquet ^_^

I don't plan to. I will be doing different trials, but plan to get Kroger roses and doing them myself.
