Anyone use freeze dried petals for the aisle

[**Kat**]

they are real flowers, and they are awesome! They look and feel real and they are really pretty. Totally worth the money in my opinion. I got 3 boxes (30 in each I think it was) and I used them on all of my tables. I didnt have enough left for my aisle, but I think that would look AWESOME!!!

I ordered 120 cups of the freeze dried rose petals from flybo also and I order the orchids from save on crafts.com I'm going to the rose petals for the ailse and the orchids for the reception tables, I can't wait til they come in tomorrow or Friday

Great ideas! I came across the preserved flowers on one of the sites and I was really curious about them... now I'll have to check that out.

I was looking into buying the preserved flowers from save-on-crafts for my centerpieces. Once you get them what are the care for them, do you need to keep them in a cool place up until the wedding? Any information would be awesome!!

I'm planning on ordering freeze dried petals for my isle. I found a seller on E-Bay, now I have to compare prices.

Are you allowed to enter the dominican republic with that? Won't there be a customs issue? If not then that's an amazing idea and i'm all over it!!

Well that was originally my questions because I wasn't sure if you could bring them either but I'm gonna trust all the girls who have done it before me and order some for my aisle.
Thanks to all the ladies that put my mind at ease.

I asked my WC and she said I wouldn't have a problem.

How many cups are you girls ordering for your aisle? These are pretty expensive so I don't want to order more than what I need. Do you people just do enough for a scattered effect or for moderate coverage?

Great ideas! I was originally going to buy plastic ones for my centrepieces but now I am going to check out these preserved ones.
