Flowers have always been as much a part of a great wedding day as arriving to get married in the most beautiful vintage wedding car Manchester has to offer – so it’s no wonder that brides and grooms are equally as picky about their blooms.
It would probably be fair to say that artificial flowers have featured in many a bride’s nightmare for the last twenty years or so, preferring to go all natural for their big day as it were – but in the last few years many very stylish weddings have used them as a core part of their design.
In fact, for 2016, wedding experts told the Daily Mail artificial flowers was one of the biggest trends to watch out for – saying: “you get more for your money and can afford to do things bigger, grander and with more ‘wow factor’”.
Therein is the certain tact for using these faux arrangements as part of your wedding style – relying on artificial flowers for amazing, largescale arrangements that’ll truly make your jaw drop and that just wouldn’t be affordable using fresh flowers.
Fresh flowers are better suited to the details – those elements of the day that your guests will spend time examining in close detail. Using them for your bouquet, of course, and the table centrepieces will make better use of flower budget.
Another of the perks of artificial flowers is you don’t have to worry about seasonality. You want the perfect peonies for our big day, but the world’s just not quite delivering them for you? Then go artificial instead – just be sure to opt for the best quality you can afford – don’t forget you can always sell them on afterwards.
