Artificial bridal bouquet

[Romancame]

I was wondering if anyone could please help me find an artificial bridal bouquet that looks real. I’m on a bit of a budget so ideally not £££.

Bonus points of it’s a little bit different/available in a moodier colour scheme. I’m not a flower type of lady at all so no idea where to start.

Etsy is your friend here.

I’ve spent days scouring Etsy but all of the ones I like are coming out at over £100! It’s not much less than I was quoted from a florist.

We did an part artificial part real bouquet for DD.

She lives Peony's, but got married when they were out of season. We bought 3/4 good big fake peony's and took them to our local florist. She put some real bits of foliage in and tied it into a bouquet for us. Def Less than £100.

Would something like that be possible?

I'll post a pic if you like?

Simple is better imo if you want them to look real - silk Calla lillies look nice and you can get purple ones if thats the darker look you want. Just get 6, bind them together with ribbon and you are done. Way back when my friend group were getting married one of them did that, then afterwards wound some fairy lights in, put them in a vase and they were in her house looking lovely for years

Have a look in the Range. You might see something there.

I bought some wedding flowers from Shein last year and they were really beautiful. I looked at Etsy and eBay but when I reversed image searched I found most were from Shein anyhow for much less!

something like these @Romancame and as @Laiste explained, intersperse with florists foliage.

Would you go a bit different and have a bouquet of paper flowers? Or a button bouquet? As you say you’re not a flower lady…

Mine was made of felt flowers and buttons as I didn’t know what to do with real flowers afterwards - a friend had hers dried and it just looks like it’s in its own glass coffin!

Look for your nearest Whittingtons, you don’t need a trade card, and buy what you need plus nice lace to tie with. Depending on how many pieces you want it made with, it will be tens of pounds though, they are about £6-8 a flower

Was a few years ago but was definitely under £100 then - we used this company https://www.thefloraltouchuk.com and I was so happy with them and they can custom make them.

Tk Maxx had some good ones on summer.

I did almost this exact same thing but I made it myself, all fake. Love peonies but my budget was daisies 🤣 I went to Country Baskets and loaded up on fake flowers and made all my bouquets. I’ve literally zero vision or skill so I bet you would do a fabulous job! I wrapped it all with electrical tape then ribbon.

That's lovely!!! 💐😍

Heres DDs:

Peonys are so beautiful and blousy that the artificial ones look very real!

Gorgeous! I love the fresh accent flowers!

If you’re not a flower person, do you actually need a bouquet?

http://thebridesbouquet.co.uk/ These guys were fab. I ordered the “Jennifer” in 2021. It looked real. I think it was £50ish for the ‘bride’s’ size.

edited to add price
