Flowers that last forever

I am a Maid of Honor helping my bride figure out bouquets. Her flower budget is tiny and the Father of the Bride has suggest faux flower bouquets for the bridesmaids. The flower color will be white for a winter wedding. Any suggestions for types or creative cheap ideas for great bouquets?

    I DIYed from flowersandfreshness.como and fiftyflowers.com

    Carnations are an inexpensive flower, and roses can be too.

    Others have used afloral.com, you might want to check out the DIY board for help with fake flowers.

    www.michaels.com has DIY instructions on several different bouquets and center pieces and also tells you what items to buy. I hope this helps.

    If you want white...try baby's breath.  Expescially for winter months, this flower bunched together looks amazing...almost like clouds or snow.  Google it.

    Best of luck.

    If you DIY the flowers, fresh flowers bought in bulk are just as cheap as fake flowers.

    I imagine calla lilies (In bulk) would be very easy to make into boquets. I'm doing diy roses and wishing I would have picked an easier flower.
