I found these online and thought they actually looked really nice (I am a flower snob, I usually dont prefer silk flowers) I have been looking into DIY real flowers but I stumbled across these and the price is great. The bouquets are already put together and they have bouts. I will put 2 smaller ones together for mine and add some green orchids for color. Plus i wouldnt have to worry about doing real ones myself, storing them in a cool place, transporting them to the site, etc. Easy is sounding pretty good to me right now! Do you guys think they look nice or have any of you ordered anything like this? I know someone else on here ordered silk orchids but i coulndt find the thread where it was mentioned.:notsure:

We are seriously thinking of doing silk flowers, and we've been debating the flowers from Save-On-Crafts for several weeks now. I think I'm going to bite the bullet and order some. I'm sure I can find something to use them for if they don't meet my expectations for wedding bouquets. They have some really great prices on there.

I was the one who bought the silk orchids. I bought them from that same site, and they are very high quality and I love them. I bought mine by the stem and I am putting the bouquets together myself, but I like the idea of already made!

Here are mine:

IMO, Orchids are one flower that look really nice as silk, even when inexpensive.

I love those!!!

Just an FYI-

A friend of mine did silk for here wedding. She bought everything at Michael's when it was 50% off and they put them together right at the store for free (the labor part that is). The good part about it is that anything that she didn'e use she didn't have to buy and if they needed another one of this or that she was able to just pick it up and add it on. I think she spent about $200 total on everything.
