Jim and I were on a very tight budget. Unfortunately, we couldn't afford real flower bouquets, corsages, and buttoneers. I was skeptical about using fake flowers, but, luckily, I took a chance and went to Michaels on East Colonial in Orlando, FL. Cindy, the floral arranger, was so helpful and patient and very sweet and talented. She helped me find a beautiful collection of flowers--silk, but so full and fresh and life-like, that they are better than real flowers because now I get to keep my bouquet in a vase in my room forever. She also guided me so that I could find the perfect matching ribbon for the final products. Everything came out lovely and really cheap--especially compared to real flowers. I know real flowers are beautiful and sweet smelling, but go talk to Cindy before you make your final decision. You might be surprised at what she can do for you, and then you can take the money you save with you on your honeymoon cruise like we did. :)
