Not sure if I should order a fake flower or use a real one for my hair. Any suggestions?

[BachataBride]

Well...I really want a real one, but I am not picking out my flowers until I get there. Because I am so detail oriented (or anal as FI likes to call it!!) I ordered a couple of fake ones just in case I didn't like the real ones, or I couldn't get them to stay in my hair, etc! It's just an idea! Etsy has some great ones...here are the ones I just ordered....




The best part is that they both cost less than $20 CDN (inc. shipping!!).

If you do a search for hair flowers you will find a lot of threads dealing with this topic...

Good Luck!!

I am also ordering one off either ebay or etsy since I can then wear it to the wedding and then to the TTD.

do any of my fellow ontario brides know where I can purchase a hair flower in an actual store...i'm afraid if i get one online i wont get it on time or won't have time to order another one if i don't like it. any suggestions would be appreciated

I orderd mine from esty from mickey and she ships priorty really fast. The only thing is I wish mine had been bigger.

I'm not sure...have you checked any of the bridal shops?? Or maybe you could go into Michaels & they could help you make one?? What about markets?? I haven't been to the St. Lawrence Market in a couple of years, but I know they have a bunch of stones and jewellery & stuff - they might have a hair flower there. Or I haven't even looked - but maybe Ardene's might have a hair buckle that you could at least start with.
(sorry I couldn't be more help!!)

I am planning on ordering mine off Etsy ... I would rather get a fake flower so there is not chance of it wilting, etc and then I am assured that I will like it.
Real flowers are gorgeous but unpredictable IMHO.

I think i would want one that matches my bouquet. Any advice on tropical flowers that would last?
