Inexpensive Spring Wedding Flowers....?

I am trying to find some inexpensive wedding flowers. I need them for a Spring wedding, specifically for April 25. I want the flowers for boutonnieres and corsages. Then depending on those will depend on the girls flowers. Any ideas??? I do know that I like the Gerber daisies.. It is a Irish/Scottish wedding with the guys in Kilts. The girls are wearing Peridot, which is a sage green color. Thanks in advance!

The gerbera daisies are a great flower. I used them for my wedding. The nice part about those is that you don't need to many flowers to make a bouquet because they are so big.


You can have the guys wear carnation boutonierre's...they are a fairly cheap flower and they look nice as well...


Are the kilts going to be red? Or are they also going to be the color peridot? If they are going to be red, then the red gerbera's are absolutely beautiful.


I am not sure how much it would cost, but they do dye the carnations if you wanted to go for a flower that is a similiar color to the dresses...like these: http://www.amaryllisflowersgiftsandmore....


Or, just stick with a very small gerbera daisy bouquet for the girls...and like I said you only need a few of them....

You could also use tulips...or a combination of the carnations, tulips and gerbera's.
Reply:Daisys are nice,but I might also suggest a lilly, not all white ones but some with color. They're an awesome spring flower!
Reply:One of my favorites for spring is gerbera daisies. They're quite affordable, and I think you might end up with a nice contrast to the peridot, if you used an orange version (would that clash with the kilts?). Yellow might also work.
Reply:GERBERA ARE REASONABLE AT THE MOMENT ABOUT 60P A STEM, AND YOU CAN MAKE A LOVELY HAND TIED BOQUET WITH THEM AND ROSES AND STATICE AND A BIT OF GREENERY , AND A FEW CARNATIONS , GOOD LUCK
Reply:Someone else in another answer recommended Costco for flowers. I looked into it, because I'd like pretty flowers that won't break the bank, so to speak. They have LOTS to choose from, including spring mixed flowers, which would look nice with the peridot dresses. And the packages are really economical. My fiance's sister-in-law said she had been in Costco and that the flowers were beautiful. Also, she read some report where they said that budget club flowers cost less and lasted longer than expensive florists' flowers for weddings. Best wishes!
Reply:If you order them from sam's club online, they have the cheapest gerbera's anywhere. I was looking at them for m August wedding, but changed my colors. I think they get as low at 40 cents a stem.
Reply:carnations, tulips, gerberas and other daisies


you can even get carnations dyed green for the scotts!!
Reply:Daisies, carnations, tulips and daffodils are all in season during the spring. You could incorporate some shamrocks and some thistle flowers.
Reply:Gerber Daisies, lots of colors cute and cheap.
