I LOVE the flower factory!  Totally recommend getting a membership.

They sell items at wholesale prices.  Fake flowers, runners, overlays, glassware, party supplies, home and garden decor, purses... yeah, it's that riduculous!

Old Time Pottery is the same type of vibe.

Michaels and Pat Catans for misc items.  I hit them up during sales.

i've never been to flower factory, i just looked it up it's pretty far from me so it's really no wonder. Michaels and Joeanne Fabrics are definatly both big ones. Davids Bridal is another one. basically all the shops everyone relys on.

I've been relying on connections and people more than anything for my wedding.
