Silk Wedding
would silk flowers be a better choice for a wedding?

I am getting married and I want to have silk flowers so I don't have to worry about wilting and they will look fresh all day. Along with the fact that I would like to keep the flowers to decorate later. Any suggestions?

I went with silk flowers for my wedding because my allergies. Real flowers make my eyes water and my nose run no matter what I take. Not a flattering look for photos! I also live in Texas where it's very hard to keep real flowers alive because of the heat and humidity. Overall, I think silks are the best way to go. There will always be some snobs that'll turn their noses up, but as long as you like it and it's what you want then ignore them. This is about celebrating your marriage to the love of your life, not an exhibit on your bank account.
Silk flowers have come along way since they were first created. The more expensive ones not only look just as nice as real ones, but they'll last longer, save you money, (although some of the nicer ones cost just as much as the real things!) will let you find flowers that you couldn't get otherwise, and wont make anyone break out in hives or have an asthma attack.

Overall, I'd take my time in looking. Another good thing about silks is that you can get them way in advance and experiment. If you can't find what you want in person, go online, but be sure that the dealer has good reviews.

You do what you need to do and don't worry about! Have a great wedding!
