Bouquet Help

I have a few questions:

1. Is the bouquet below in the link too much?

2. Is that a good price for all that stuff?

3. How hard would that be to make do you think???

TIA Girls!!!!

The link isn't working!!! I guess I'll have to post this:

That is beeeaaauuutttiiifffulll!! I don't know whether or not it is a good deal because I don't know how much real flowers cost and the comparison.

Re: Bouquet Help

i think it's pretty .... the bride's bouquet usually costs around $200, and about $100 for any bridesmaids (for real flowers)

bouteniers and corsages are often free from the florist (or at least, mine were)

i think it's a decent price, but honestly, i'd never buy fake flowers without first seeing them in person (some fake flowers are REALLY bad and tacky looking ... while others are fine)

ETA: i just realized i said something that's not 100% clear ... the prices for bouquets i posted are averages (i think i read those nums online at some point) ... yours could cost a lot more or a lot less.

$265.00 for fake flowers? IMO I think thats pricey... you could go to michaels or joannes and make your own for A LOT less....
it is GORGEOUS though... but I dont think its worth almost $300...

Re: Bouquet Help

Honestly, I think it's a little too much for fake flowers. I paid $100 for my bk of white roses and orchids:

Okay, just realized thats the price for a set of bouquets and not just one. It isn't a bad price for all of that stuff but I ordered silk bk's and bout's for my BP and it didn't cost me that much but they were just white roses.

It's really up to you whether you want to spend that price with $35 shipping. They are nice and unique though.

Re: Bouquet Help

IMO its not too over priced. Yes, you could make it at michaels, but isnt that the price for 14 pieces (brides bouquet, MOH, BM, etc)? The materials are prob half that cost but you arent worrying about having to make them to last. If you can see a sample of the flowers and are happy with the quality i would say go for it
