Where could I buy silk flowers for my wedding?

I live in Esperance, West Australia. Any ideas of stockists in my area?

Where could I buy silk flowers for my wedding?
Craft stores, flea markets, art supply stores, on the web...





When doing your arrangements, be very careful. My sister decided to use silk flowers for the wedding bouquets because of a strict budget, and they ended up looking very tacky. If you are set on using silk flowers, make sure they are the best quality you can find. Otherwise everybody will be talking about the cheap bouquets (from my own experience!)
Reply:Do a search of Ebay for silk wedding flower sets. I ordered my silk flowers off of ebay. The florist who did my flowers was amazing...she worked with me for three weeks, via email, pictures and phone calls. I got ALL of my flowers for less than $200 US, including shipping. I'm sure the Ebay sellers could ship to you in Australia. I would just make sure to email them and tell them your location before deciding on one person to do your work.

Reply:i would just try some craft stores or maybe search online for somewhere you can buy them in bulk and have them shipped to you...
Reply:Ebay. They have several silk florists on there located in Australia. Their pictures look very good. Finally there is nothing wrong with using silk flowers. The key is finding someone who makes very arrangements. If you are located in the same place the floral arranger you select is request pictures and if possible see actual arrangements that she is and/or has put together for other brides.


Oh and congratulations
Reply:If only americans would realize when they say micheals we have no idea what they are talking about, your best bet is to ask your local florists where to look, if your wanting to go cheaper, Clints, bi lo or something along those lines have a small array assuming they are in your area,but if your wanting a more expensive look its smarter going to a florist.
Reply:I am really not trying to be mean but I think silk flowers are quite tacky. Do you really want to hold a piece of plastic down the aisle? You can still save money and get real ones. Just get a smaller bouquet with cheaper priced flowers. This will be much more elegant than silk ones.
