Q, Are any of our wedding flowers real?
A, No, all our flowers are just made to look like the real thing using a mixture of artificial materials such as foam, silk, latex and soft touch flowers.
Q, Can you leave the stems on my bouquet open?
A, The stems of most artificial wedding flowers have metal in the middle so you can bend the stem into the shape you need, this is then covered in the paper, card or plastic. Leaving the stem unwrapped will leave these metal stems exposed which can be sharp and easily catch or snag on a brides wedding dress so we never do this and prefer to cover them in ribbon.
