I am so sorry that happens to you, but rest assure there are plenty of things you can do instead of flowers or even with flowers submerged in water. It will depend on you RH and the vibe you are trying to get. If it is a wedding by the beach you can get away with the sand. If your wedding is more elegant....orchids submerged in water in a long vase with votive candles will be perfect.
and also i would do silk flower bo-ks or no bo-ks.

Re: PLEASE SOMONE HELP ME!!!!!!!!!!!
first things first---go to an allergist to determine if you are allergic.
if they can't give you anything for an allergy---use candle, candelabra or candle cp's....plenty of ways to do it.

i would say silk flowers. They are georgous. Do not gamble with having an allergic reaction the day of your wedding. My sister has been to 4 allergy docs and they all say she is not allergic to tomatoes. she CLEARLY is. Go with silk!

Re: PLEASE SOMONE HELP ME!!!!!!!!!!!
All good suggestions, but let me just ask if you're sure you're allergic to ALL flowers....you have some time to test it out. For myself for example, I know I am EXTREMELY allergic to all kinds of Lily, like I will be dying of red eyes and running nose, but many other flowers don't give me trouble--my all peony bo-k was fine! Perhaps it is only SOME flowers that give you this reaction! As someone who has lots of allergy problems, just a suggestion!

I Just saw coffee beans as a center piece- check out this pic- and depending when your wedding is you can do the leaves- silk ones if they bother you as well
the other pic didnt post- let me try it again... its not working- but it was a pic of flowers in a full vase of coffee beans- i think that would just smell so pretty

Re: PLEASE SOMONE HELP ME!!!!!!!!!!!
You should def go see an allergist. Your body changes every 7 years, so you could be allergic to something now that you werent before. Crazy i know!
Anyway, there are some great candle cps you can do!!
