Ok so just a little background info….Our wedding is 120 guest and all close friends and family. Our budget was 5,000 and we are ready for the big day with only spending 4,000. The theme is rustic, vintage and down to earth and my mother wanted to purchase the flowers for the wedding out of her own money because she LOVES flowers and really wanted too. I mainly want babies breath and just a few bunches of wildflowers and we were quoted $600!! and I am not ok with that. Paying that much just for one day worth of blooms is crazy to me, so I am trying to reason with my mother and tell her we can do the bouquets and small stuff like that in dried flowers from hobby lobby (craft store) and then only purchase real flowers for the church and for the reception, but she feels that that is tacky.
I guess what I am asking is, is it tacky? ha ha
