Until recently, it hadn’t even occurred to me to consider artificial flowers for my wedding – but then I discovered a company called Commercial Silk. They offer a wide variety of artificial flowers, topiaries and trees for homes, offices and outdoor displays. Their subsidiary company, Silk Plants Direct, offers smaller items like centerpieces, bouquets and corsages, and I became a fan last year when I chose one of their beautiful bouquets for my bridesmaids. Now that I realized what a great option silk flowers can be, I decided to pick out my own bridal bouquet from their selection.

After looking through the bouquets and thinking about what I want my dress to look like, I decided on these Mini Cymbidium Orchid Bridal Bouquets in White Green from Silk Plants Direct. This is a pack of two bouquets that measure about 6.5″ tall. It is a more substantial bouquet than I expected, with some weight. It is small enough to just fit in my hands, giving a cute and traditional look. The flowers themselves are quite pretty – I wanted something that had a very classic look to it, and I think I succeeded here. I didn’t realize just how elegant artificial flowers could be until I was introduced to this company, and I’m so glad to have found them! I love the fact that these flowers will remain as mementos after the ceremony has ended, instead of just getting thrown away – whichever lady wins the bouquet toss will have a trophy long after the wedding has ended. I’m happy with my choice and can’t wait to walk down the aisle with my bouquet in hand!
