  • Gorgeous! Can't believe they look so real!
    You can contact Kayloublue through this website:
    www 1-special-day co uk. They do flower girl stuff but I was looking at the weekend and they recommend her and have a direct link. x
  • Thanks AngelCake - they get more beautiful the more I look at the pics lol. She sent a lovely email earlier saying she has had a great response from this thread, so am glad to give credit where credit is due.

    She has sent them out first class today - WOOOO

    Best £50.00 ever spent :D

    em, she can do pink and ivory roses. After i got my buttonholes I emailed her to ask if she could do those colours, but not pink pink, more of a blush pink and she said Yes, so I suppose she could do exactly what you want if you let her know what that is xx

  • I know that these flowers look really nice in the pictures, but how are they in real life? I've seen some awful looking fake flowers and it's not always easy to tell from the photos what they will really look like.

    We've already put down a deposit with a florist for some items, though the order is currently only as guidelines and nothing is set in stone (we're getting married in 2011).

    My W2B wants a real bouquet and we're having a couple of pedastles so they'll be done by the florist, plus she wants me to have a button hole to match her bouquet or something so it would be best for the florist to do both. But if we went with kayloublue for the rest of the button holes, would it look strange or out of place having mine real and the others fake? I've sent her an e-mail asking how much for 7 single rose button holes.

    I've got the foam ivory rose buttonholes and they look fantastic. 3 people I have shown asked me why the hell I have bought them now (wedding next October), because they thought they were real.

    They aren't as large as a real rose head, but they look amazing.

    Why don't you buy just one from her and see how you like it?
