Even the smallest weddings use flowers, and these are usually for the bridal bouquets and corsages for the male attendants.

Some women like to have their bridal bouquets preserved, but you really can’t do this with live flowers. There are companies that can press and preserve a few flowers out of the bouquet, but it won’t compare to saving a silk arrangement. They can also build a special frame that includes a poem of your choice along with either dried flowers or some of the silk flowers you choose. This is a great memento is you choose to have it done.

Most craft stores know that many people come in specifically to choose flowers for bridal bouquets, and they are ready to help you out.
