Good place for silk flowers??

I need to find some good quality silk flowers. I checked Michael's in Westbury but they didn't really have what I'm looking for. I'm having some small flowers tucked into the back of our chair covers where the bow is tied. Silk are just easier to work with for that than real flowers that can break easily. Any suggestions on where to go? Thanks

I did a lot of research and found that afloral.com had the best silk flowers.

ETA: Just saw you are getting married in
10 days...so I guess ordering online wouldn't work for you.

Re: Good place for silk flowers??

Does anyone know of an actual florist that deals with silk flowers? I want to do ALL my flowers at my wedding with silk. My mom said that florists by her (Florida) deal with silk. I'm not big into flowers, so I wouldn't even know which florists to start with.

Thanks

I don't know if there are any around here, but I got some of my silks at the Rag Shop (in NJ). Their flowers were nicer than Michaels and A.C. Moore.

I just checked their website, the closest ones are in Brooklyn and College Point.
