I also make silk real touch bouquets! You shouldn't have any worries about them looking fake. I'm sure they will look fantastic. For packing your bouquets - very simple - the bouquets are crushable (or mine are) - you might have to just fluff them up a bit - but over all you will be able to bring back your bouquets. I'm heard stories from brides - that they thought they could bring back their bouquet from a carribean destination wedding - and because the flowers are tropical they have to stay! It can be very upsetting to some people! Just thought i'd throw my 2 cents in! Terry Knot to Worry Bouquetshttp://www.knottoworry.ca
