Here Come The Girls
| Q | I want my nine bridesmaids to have beautiful bouquets, but we're on a tight budget. Do you have any ideas on how we can save money? |
| A | Sarah McCaig says: There are two options that I always recommend to my couples. The first is a smaller bouquet. We offer a petite-style bouquet that captures the beauty and style of a standard version but is around 50 per cent cheaper. Alternatively, you could opt for a single-stem, fully blown rose or peony with trailing silk ribbons for extra detail. Alternatively, you can repurpose the bouquets and use them as centrepieces. After the group photos are taken, collect the bouquets from the bridesmaids and place them in vases on the tables. We have done this before, dressing the table with a fabric runner, tapered candles and tealight holders, then placing the bouquets in vases. No one will know the difference! You can also use these on the top table or as additional décor throughout the room. |
