I had silk flowers for my wedding and still have them three years on! I bought them individually from a florist wholesalers I think near manchester/ Bolton area and made my own (had to register as a business though to get a trade card - from memory I used my photography business and they never checked lol). I made 2 bridesmaid bouquets and my bridal bouquet, ivory roses for me with green ivy around the edge. I think the bms were ivory or red roses but can't remember for the life of me! Have to get the photos out.
I love the fact I still have it and can look at it when I want!0 -
