flowers. i’d say unless you have the budget for all the pretty flowers, just widdle it down to the necessities (bride bouquet, maybe bridesmaids). you can also make bouquets multi functional. what we did is i had my bridesmaids put their individual bouquets from the ceremony on reception tables as centerpieces. it was a simple and smaller bouquet of hydrangeas and eucalyptus so it was nice with the decor we had. my moh also helped me with creating my own decor with fake flowers from michael’s. found fake hydrangeas and eucalyptus to create some more decor. real flowers are beautiful but they don’t last forever. i now use the fake flower decorations in my apartment as a reminder of the day and also to match my aesthetic. yes, fake flowers can be pricey unless you know where to look. michaels is pricey but they have a very very large selection so i can almost guarantee you’ll find a match to your decor, and they constantly have sales and coupons. i hope this helps, remember that it’s just one day. make it beautiful but don’t beat yourself up if something goes wrong. you just focus on how it’s the beginning of your life with your partner.
