AIBU to ask whether fake flowers for wedding venue are tacky

Second wedding. We are middle aged getting married with a flexible budget. Country house/ small castle venue. Bridal bouquets, button holes and corsages will all be fresh flowers. I’ve found a supplier that will provide really lovely tall blossom displays on plinths and matching table centre pieces, with a flowered arch for the service. The cost to decorate the venue would be around £600 versus more than double that for fresh flowers. But is it tacky to have fake venue flowers

I was loving all the recommendations for “foam” flowers. Then googled and found it wasn’t a spellcheck fail, , faux/ foam . Foam flowers exist. Who knew. Handy if it “reigns” I suppose.

I think your example is gorgeous, go for it.

No they don't have to be tacky IMO

You can get nice ones
