Fake Flower Wedding Arrangements

The church we were married in had a few spots for large flower arrangements but we were already getting close to our budget. The florists we got quotes from gave us price ranges from $80 to $200 PER arrangement of this size! The cheapest options weren't very exciting either, mostly green filler stuff and no color.

Here is an example of one of the fake flower arrangements that we made ourselves. It is fake flowers, fake green "grass" stuff, a large glass vase from IKEA and some glass pebbles from a craft store.

We saved a TON of money by doing it this way and I really liked that we were able to make them way ahead of time and not have to worry about things like flowers wilting. Most people thought they were real.
