Anyone know where to get inexpensive (but tasteful) flower arrangements in Jhb? Wedding in december....?

Don't know where you live but there was a florist called Ruby Mountain in Thrupps Centre, Oxford Road, Sandton when I lived there and the flowers were fab. Don't know if still there though. Congrats on the wedding.

look through your local phone directory
Reply:I got married 10 Dec, we used holly and ivy - freely available in most woods and forests! For colour, nab some holly with berries!
Reply:I don't know where you are but floral wholesalers will save you lots and lots of money. Many have catalogs on line. Of course you and/or your friends or wedding planner will have to make the bouquets, etc but you'll save a lot.
Reply:Arrange it yourself or get a friend with a knack to do it.


That's what I did. (Dec. 2 last year)


There are floral foams available in craft stores, and bridal bouquet holders.


Call around to flower shops and see which ones offer the cheapest un-arranged flowers.


My sister helped me do mine.


You can find pictures of beautiful flower arrangements to look at for a guide.


Try it with something cheap(like carnations) ahead of time if you're worried. I like carnations. But I wanted dark red roses for my decor.


Have fun
Reply:where are you from. Silk flowers will be much cheaper and save you a bundle, plus you have keepsakes from your wedding.
