My wedding next April will (weather permitting) be in a garden with a gazebo and blooms all around. Since there's going to be a good bit of natural floral action happening, I was planning on only using a florist for personal flowers like bouquets, boutonnieres, corsages, etc. Do you guys think it would look strange to have eco-flowers instead of regular flowers since it'll be in a garden? Or would it offer kind of a fun contrast? The pictures are kind of rough ideas of what I would want whether I went with natural or eco-flowers.
Re: Real Flowers vs. Eco-Flowers
I am loving the eco-flowers. I am doing eco-flowers in our reception hall and outside. I say you do what YOU want to do.
One of the things that helped me decide is that I have thought back to the many weddings I've been in and been to. I cannot for the life of me remember the flowers or centerpieces with the exception of one wedding. And for that wedding, I only remember the centerpieces because they were unlike any I had ever seen. (Probably because that wedding was close to $1million.) But, I had hoped that my eco-flowers would stand out or at the very least, I wouldn't spend a ton of money on something no one remembers. Just my thought...
Natural flowers are as eco-friendly as you can get!
I agree with the PP, real flowers would probably look best in a natural garden, and best of all you probably won't need much because it's so pretty already!
