Need Inexpensive Bouquets
Help!! I need ideas for inexpensive bouquets for my attendants and myself. I know that roses and lilies are expensive, but I do not know of any flowers that are beautiful and inexpensive. My colors are periwinkle and silver.

Hello i too am getting married soon ( aug.18th this yr.) i am on a low budget wedding plan. And i have found that daisies and carnations are pretty cheap, but look really nice together also.
Also the florist gave me other flowers that dont cost as much,..
Gerbera Daisies ( i mentioned), Stattice(filler flower),Alstroemeria Lilies,Chrysanthimums,Gladiolus,and Freesia.
I hope i could be of some help!!!

Hydrangea flowers might work too...they come in different colors so perhaps that helps. They aren`t expensive either. Carnations always work too!!

I am also getting married this year and have been looking for inexpensive flowers. I found a couple of great websites for flowers that you might find helpful. The first one is www.weddingsandflowers.com in the package savings sections it has Weddings in a Box. The site has all silk flowers prearranged and sent directly to you. The second site is www.freshroses.com you can purchase fresh flowers direct from a grower, but you will have to do the arranging yourself. An example...you can get 25 roses for $22. I hope this information helps! Congratulations and Good Luck!

Hello its me manda again.. I was thinking you might want to check "Costco" if you have one, they have beautiful flowers, there set of flowers are rather large, so if you wanted to , you could but the bouquts together your self, just get some bunches and some floral tape, and ribbon there you go!!!
It also depends on how many people in your wedding i dont know if you want a "project". =0)
Hopfully i could of help

Hey , I am getting married in May 2003 and wanted to keep things cheap especially when the florist told me that the bouquet I wanted was going to cost me $150, Yeah Right! So I went to wal mart and bought some nice silk flowers they look real. I made my bouquet 4 bridesmaids, 8 bouteniers, 7 corsages and a throw away, all for $100. That includes floral tape , ribbon , and pins. Congrats on getting married

Why don`t you think about using lavender? It`s gorgeous, inexpensive, and you can fill the bouquet out with other inexpensive flowers....daisies, greens, etc. Then maybe you can afford to put 1 or two roses in to accent the bouquet.....white ones would be nice with lavender.
