    I've been looking at a website called GT Designs for my wedding reception flowers. They do some really good prices on there in the way of artificial flowers, however I am a little dissapointed in their range of table top flowers (they only seem to have a couple that match the guest tables). Does anyone else know of any other sites with a similar price range at all?

    Hi, do you have a link to the pretty polly flowers on ebay as I can't seem to find them just by searching.

    Hi, here's the link to the shop: http://stores.ebay.co.uk/PETALS-POLLY-FLOWERS?_rdc=1 She's really good, I emailed her and she made me up a special order based on what I wanted, I think it was 20 button holes, 3 bridesmaids poseys, one bridal bouquet and a table decoration, came well under £100 xx

    hi all, getting married on 1st august, in east ayrshire. I feel so far behind most of you that its unreal.Still need to pay for most things - only just went and saw to my flowers, bm dresses, dj and suits. I need to go for a dress fitting next week - which i am not looking forward to as i had a really bad experience last time i went. As for flowers i have went for real flowers, but did shop around alot. All in i got 5 quotes, two from the secc bridal show (both over £75 - just for my flowers) then i went around my three local florists. Two said mine would be over £85, with the bridesmaids being £35+ each. Finally i found the one i have went with , mine(orchids) will be £50, with £25 per bridesmaid(calla lilly).I know this is alot more than some of you are paying (and you all know to shop about as it is ;) ) but just thought i would let you all know that their are some deals their for fresh flowers, and just because they are "expensive " flowers, doesn't mean you will pay the earth.
