Bridal bouquet

Hi. Not sure about the price of silk flowers but I can give you a breakdown of what I pay. Flowers weren't our priority either but I wanted local and environmental friendly(nothing flown in etc.) so found a company in the area that grows local and wildflowers. I paid 160 for:

1 Bridal bouquet
1 bridesmaid bouquet 4 button holes4 hair clips
I don't think I would have paid 150 for just my bouquet especially if you say yours is small. However I guess as yours is silk so you got to keep it longterm. And by what I read so far silk flowers, if done well, are often more expensive than fresh ones ones.... so might be reasonable but definitely more than I would be willing to spent... then again flowers weren't top of my list. Hope you find what you like in uour budget

View quoted message Thank you, that's really helpful. I'm a bit surprised by the price tbh and I'd rather dried flowers so I may keep looking.


Appreciate you putting it into context!

I’m based in London and getting married in Marylebone (just to provide context). My bridal flowers are costing £220.
This includes a medium bridal bouquet, 3x bridesmaids bouquet, 2x buttonholes.

Like the person above I’m not really into flowers but I knew I wanted them to be nice.

View quoted message Oh wow, that is useful to know! I feel that my quote may be a little too much for me in context. although I appreciate that silk flowers are generally expensive, I'm really not bothered about having them, would rather a beautiful bunch of fresh or dried.


Thank you!

View quoted message Not a problem- I looked through my other quotes and some of them estimated £150 for bridal bouquet alone.


Interestingly, the overall cost of florals was the same irrespective of the bridal flowers cost. The florist I picked charges more for centrepieces whilst the florists charging more for bridal flowers charged less for other areas.
Good luck with your decisions

If you'd rather dried flowers, try here: https://www.artisandriedflowers.co.uk/ It's where all my wedding flowers came from.

View quoted message Oh thank you, great to know. How far in advance did you buy yours?

Well, my wedding was supposed to have been back in April so my flowers were delivered in March so I have them already. But, you just put your dates in and they deliver your flowers four weeks before the wedding.

also, they're very helpful as I wanted to add some larkspur to my bouquet and they did that for me.

View quoted message Oh fantastic, that sounds simple.
Thanks so much!

Ooh I am also looking at Artisan Dried Flowers so it’s brilliant to read a positive review!

Can definitely recommend! I've had to keep my flowers cool and dark as obvs they're now not being used until next year, and they still look (and smell) good

We had a small bouquet for me and a buttonhole for the groom and the cost was £57 for the pair. Locally grown flowers, beautifully fresh and delivered on our wedding morning. I took the bouquet on honeymoon with us, stuck in a jam jar, and it lasted the whole week!

Has anyone come across broach bouquets. I was going through my past weddings to find shots to update my website and came across them again. There was a time around 4 years ago where they were getting quite popular but I haven't seen them now for a few years - they have just disappeared.

In case you don't know what they are, you gather old vintage costume jewellery from Mums Grandmas ect. Mainly I have only see it for the bride.
