Text the Wedding Planning Hotline

Through bouquets, boutonnieres, and arrangements, whether your wedding vibe is dramatic and bold, or whimsical and delicate, the floral decor is going to be a major determinant. Perhaps couples don't immediately think about the massive role (and price point) floral decor play in the ambiance of their wedding.   Furthermore, in the era of sustainability and eco-friendly alternatives, it would be ignorant to ignore the wastefulness that comes from wedding flowers, as most are thrown out the next day. SO, couples may be asking themselves:

  • Is there an eco-friendly alternative to for wedding flowers?
  • Are faux floral decorations right for my wedding? 
  • How expensive are fresh vs. faux floral decor? 
  • What can make faux flowers be more realistic? 

If you all follow my wedding planning company’s account at Verve Event Co. , you all know I love beautiful floral arrangements. So I’m really excited for today’s conversation with Amanda and Meghan from the Silk Stem Collective.
