Wowee you got a lot of comments about this one! Thanks for posting – what a wonderful idea -mix great priced flowers with some style and a splash of gorgeous ribbon – the money you’d save could be spent on other romantic things… dinner… honeymoon… anniversaries!!!
Trader Joes is THE BEST SPOT to find gorgeous blooms for CHEAP! I’m all about doing our cocktail hour arrangements myself…
I love baby’s breathe!@ Cheap, simple and chic
loving the flowers.its a good mix.
I didn’t have a bouquet! Not for me to hold, at least. There were flowers in the room, though. I didn’t see a need for me to hold them; you have to hand them off, anyway, in order to do the ring exchange. I should also mention that I did not walk down an aisle; instead, when we were ready to get married, we called everyone to stand around the minister, my husband and me. It was wonderful to have a horse-shoe of all of our most beloved family and friends standing around us. Because I didn’t have anything in my hands during the ceremony, my husband and I held hands – what could be better than that?!
I love this posting. Whole Foods definitely has some fantastic options. My sister purchased her bouquet there and we were really pleased. Just some gorgeous ribbon around the stems and voila!
oh wow. this is amazing.
they look soooo good!!

Great bouquet pics!
The type of bouquets pictured are very easy to do, even for someone with limited floral design skills.
I just posted a how-to video I came across on putting together a hand-tied bouquet of fall flowers.

Wow!, that’s just brilliant love the second bouquet.
It’s super easy to do! My hsuband did all the flowers for our wedding! We got married in Disney World and during a hurricane. Loads of problems the night before the wedding with the florist and husband sprang into action. Goodings Market in Orlando, Florida was AWESOME! They got us someone right away from the floral department even though it was closed already and we were able to make sure enough white roses and red roses came in the next days shipment. Husband got them bright and early. (wedding was at 9am so it was suppppper bright) and he got to work! It was the most amazing day of my life and I will remember it more so because so much love went into those flowers.
You can totally do your wedding on a budget–we did and loved it! Can’t wait to see what you’re going to do!
I got all my flowers from Trader Joe’s and Costco for under $200 ( including bouquets for 10 girls!) I just picked from whatever they had in stock but it was a lovely look with each girl carrying a huge, fresh, different bouquet of all one flower. No one ever would have known that they didn’t come from a florists, there were flowers in abundance and for so little! There are so many ways to DIY a wedding cheaper.
i love the look of those carnations all bundled in together! fabulous!
