Other Florists

[lzimm13]

I'd really like to look into Florists outside of Disney. The prices that I've seen are just far too expensive. I know people have used outside florists but I can't remember who. If anyone feels comfortable could you share who you used, what you got, and how much it cost? Thanks!

I know flowers can be so expensive! Because of the expense, time of year, and allergies, I decided to use silk flowers. I know most people don't use them for their weddings, but I LOVED them and they looked so real.

So just as another option, this is where I got them from..

Thanks Puente! that was super helpful!! I'll be sure to check out your PJ!

KStarfish, Those bouquets look amazing but she really doesn't have anything to match my colors and she says she doesn't do custom anymore. Plus I have no clue what I'd do with it after the wedding! lol

Also anyone who used and outside florist and did the MK shoot what did you do for flowers at the shoot?
