... and they're gorgeous!!
She decided to go with silk as she's marrying abroad and having a UK reception back home, so the UK guests could see the whole look IYKWIM.
We ordred from Jennie at White Ribbons on ebay and she is so helpful, we sent her a pic of a bouquet dd liked and she recreated her version, dd wasn't quite sure so Jennie tweaked it a bit and it was perfect. She also tweaked the bridegrooms buttonhole and made flowergirl wands from a pic. She sent us photo's at every stage and was quite prepared to redo if necessary.
The flowers arrived within a week of payment - super fast.
We got
5 men's buttonholes
1 grooms buttonhole
4 wrist corsages
2 flower girl wands
1 bridal shower bouquet
all for under £100!!!

I'm sorry I can't post pics as they're all wrapped and boxed (again) ready to be posted on to dd's friend in Gibraltar! Stop press - found some pics, scroll down!

I know some of you ladies are really worried about silk flowers so I thought I'd let you know of a good and very reasonable florist.
